Tonia Alexa lived a life of scorn. Mocked for the scar that marred her face, her own mate cast her aside the second he secured his power, leaving her shattered and convinced she was unlovable.
Then came a single night with a stranger. He was the first man who didn’t see her scar, the first to make her feel desired.
That one night was a secret they both carried. For Tonia, he was a dream. For him—the ruthless Alpha King Kermit—she was the only woman who had ever given him release, an obsession he couldn’t forget.
Five years later, she’s forced into a marriage contract with that very same man. Just as his cold exterior begins to thaw, a devastating lie rips them apart. His memories of her are stolen, and the man who once desired her now sees only a traitor.
Tonia wants to flee. But with her stolen children’s lives on the line, she has to fight. To reclaim her family, she must face a world of dark power and deception, ruled by the man who holds her heart but no longer remembers her name.


"Kermit, finally." Estelle exhaled with visible relief. "Allow me to introduce Alpha Fox of Thornhaven. This is his daughter we discussed."


My breathing had ceased the moment he entered. Nothing existed beyond the crushing pain in my chest.


Memories I'd fought desperately to suppress came flooding back. The word 'Princess' rang in my mind like a haunting echo. I wanted to scream.


He had been Kermit? The Alpha of Shadowpeak? This couldn't be happening.


Unlike that evening when he'd gazed at me with those mesmerizing eyes and declared me beautiful, his stare now held arctic coldness—completely emotionless. He bore no resemblance to the man I'd wanted to spend another day with. He appeared merciless, someone I needed to flee from immediately.


Everything clicked into place. That night, his sweetness had been pure manipulation. God, what a fool I'd been. How he must have mocked me when I rested my head against his chest. He must have been revolted.
