She disappeared to survive. She returns carrying a secret that could bring a kingdom to its knees. Years ago, Sariah Orr was publicly rejected by her fated mate and erased herself from the supernatural elite-never knowing her unborn child would one day expose ancient laws meant to control kings. Now her pregnancy triggers a blood-signature that drags her back into the world she fled... and into the path of Kingston Henry, the billionaire Alpha King who once chose power over her. To protect her child, Sariah signs a cold mating contract designed to forbid love, heirs, and choice. But desire doesn't obey law-and neither does truth. As rival Alphas move to seize the throne and betrayal closes in, Kingston must choose between the crown that made him king and the woman who could destroy it. Because this time, love isn't fate. It's rebellion.
