Odette thought her world ended the night her father was murdered. Blind, sheltered, and suddenly powerless, she’s thrown into the hands of Evander, the cold, ruthless Alpha who ordered her father’s death.
Evander rules with iron control, feared as both Alpha of his pack and Boss of the underworld. He doesn’t believe in love. He doesn’t believe in mates. But the moment Odette enters his life, she awakens the instincts he’s spent years silencing.
She swears she hates him. He insists he doesn’t need her. Yet every glance, every breath, every clash of wills threatens to break them both.
A dangerous bond ties them together, one born of blood, power, and a desire neither of them can escape.
Will Odette remain a prisoner in his world, or will she become the one thing Evander cannot control?

Her voice softened at the end, so faint I almost thought I imagined it. I froze, my lips parting, my lungs forgetting how to work for a second.
