She counts the days to escape this hostile environment, until the annual festival of lust, Lupercalia, puts her in a delicate situation. Madison finds herself cornered as her fertile period coincides with the festival, forcing her to make a difficult choice: face the festival alone, risking being targeted by single males seeking mates, or be claimed as the Alpha's mate for her own safety.

Madison's life crumbles when her community is attacked, and she narrowly escapes. While recovering from past disappointments and surprises, she faces someone she initially regarded as her enemy. She uncovers a web of lies that kept her blind to the truth about her past. Matteo finally has his soulmate by his side but faces challenges to keep her there. Will Madison completely overcome her past with Dylan? And Dylan's son that she carries in her belly, is Matteo capable of loving him? Dylan won't give up on his claim and neither will Matteo on his soulmate.
