After securing her career as a designer in Paris, Arlene Brooks allows herself one night of abandon with the lead singer of Lia Skye Lucia—her ultimate obsession. Warner Lorenzo is a rock god on the stage, secretly a runaway wolf haunted by a savage birthright. Fleeing his father’s tyranny, he chose fame over his pack, rejecting the brutal legacy that trailed him.
A single explosive encounter after a show brings them together. Arlene is completely mesmerized by the man behind the anthems, while Warner comes face-to-face with the woman fate has chosen for him. She’s human, with a bright, clean future ahead. He’s a rogue, desperate to escape his bloodline. Following a night of raw passion, Warner disappears, believing she’s safer if he remains nothing more than a scorching memory.
That one night redefines Arlene’s world. Five years after her encounter with Warner Lorenzo, she’s a single mother to twins. A quick search of his name reveals a blur of tabloids, women, and wild parties. She vows to protect her children by keeping their existence a secret, praying their paths will never cross again.
Fate, it seems, has a twisted sense of humor. They collide in the middle of a crowded airport, where Warner discovers a little boy and girl who bear an undeniable resemblance to his family—one with his own jade-green eyes, the other a perfect echo of the women in his lineage.
He is left reeling when the little girl proudly calls Arlene “Mommy.” Panicked, Arlene seizes her chance to escape as a swarm of fans descends on Warner. He might have found the will to let her go once, but everything has changed. He knows the truth now, and he can’t walk away, because the very power his children have inherited makes them a target for dangers she can’t possibly imagine.

The morning sun filtered through the windows as I descended the stairs, feeling surprisingly refreshed after a solid night's sleep. The bustling energy of the kitchen welcomed me with warm greetings from every direction. Having this many people around in the morning still felt foreign, yet I found myself completely at ease rather than overwhelmed.


Annabella approached with her characteristic warmth. "Good morning, Alpha Danvers. I prepared your usual fruit selection for the morning smoothie. Please let me know if you need anything additional."


Relief washed over me seeing her familiar face. "Thank you so much. I apologize for the sudden departure yesterday evening. Your cooking was absolutely incredible."


She waved dismissively with understanding in her eyes. "These things happen beyond our control. Should we modify your nutritional supplements now that circumstances have changed?" Her gaze drifted meaningfully toward my midsection.
