She loved him like the moon—distant, untouchable, and dangerously beautiful.
He loved her like a secret—hidden, forbidden, and doomed from the start.

Rain was born in dirt and raised in silence—an omega in a world that worships strength. Her only joy? The quiet, stolen moments with Batista, the Alpha prince who once defended her when no one else would. She loved him from the shadows, never expecting to be seen.

He ordered her mother’s execution. He sentenced Rain to death.
And she died—almost.

But the girl they threw into the pit came back. Not as a servant. Not as a traitor.
As something more.

Now Rain walks with rage in her heart and fire in her blood. And Batista—the Alpha who once held her hand and shattered her world—wants her back.

We had stopped in front of a tall oak door carved with crescent moons and curling vines. She pushed it open, and we stepped inside.
