    Summary

    In a world ruled by ancient laws, blood-bound alliances, and silent gods, an oath is born where none should exist.

    The bastard daughter of an Alpha who denied her, raised on the margins and shaped by blood and heat, Melanie is an omega who never fit the role forced upon her. Too tall, too strong, too untamed, she flees a fate of barter and captivity. Wounded, starving, and close to death, she crosses into forbidden land and collapses within the borders of Stromhills.

    Duncan, heir of the North and a widowed Alpha, swore he would never take another omega. Yet when he finds her, he senses not only danger but a promise that could either save or shatter everything he has built.

    As trade routes are diverted, clans conspire, and ancient laws are broken, Melanie becomes the center of a threat that endangers the balance of Eldwyn itself. Between the coming winter, the ghosts of the past, and the shadow of violence, an unexpected bond begins to form.

    And when Duncan marks her, it is not a claim of possession that is made — it is an oath.

    An oath powerful enough to unite the North… or drag it into war.
