SYNOPSIS: All she wants is her freedom; all he wants is her. Born to a powerful pack of werewolves but cursed to be human, Fiona Lysidas has been running away from her life for years. Above her freedom, she values nothing else. But her world comes crashing down when she is sold off into a marriage with Alpha Dmitri Amoux; cruel, handsome, and still nursing the wound of a mate he loved and lost. But Fiona’s freedom can only come at the cost of heartbreak, death, danger, and grief. Her fate demands too much, and if that includes shattering her heart in the process, then so be it. He will make her his; she will make him break. All is fair in love and war; or is it?

The Clemonte family lives with skeletons hidden in their cupboards. When Ophelia Clemonte is saved from a near-death experience by a mysterious man, she throws all rules and caution of the family into the air and resolves to get to know Seth. However, digging into the past is like digging a grave, and soon, Ophelia realizes that not only has she been lied to her whole life, but a sinister entity also lurks in the shadows, counting down the days of the Clemonte family. It's a race against time, as she tries to find a way to break the curse, not realizing the monster is closer than she thinks. - Seth stood for a moment with a slight smile. In the dim light, he looked like a beautiful mirage; the kind of unearthly beautiful creatures you could only see in dreams and Ophelia wondered if this was a dream. If perhaps she was still lying on the bathroom floor and hadn't found the courage to leave. Or maybe she was still asleep on the first day they had moved into the mansion, and Seth Bonavich was not a real person, but a figment of her imagination.

The red Chevy bolted into the house successfully. Arthur slammed on the brakes, swerved the steering wheel to avoid collision with a wall, and simultaneously pulled the hand-break. The car spun on its axis, tires screeching wildly. The gunshots began. Juniper sprinted towards them. She hurled a duffel bag with five stolen guns at Ajax. He snatched them midair. She took a stance in front of the car and faced five approaching guards. The submachine gun in her hand recoiled multiple times as she took aim and wasted all five men. Arthur and Ruby got out of the car. Ajax handed them a weapon each. More gunshots rang. "Arthur, to your left! Keep them off! Ruby, stay behind me!" Juniper instructed over the violent sounds. She pulled Ruby behind her, shielding her from the bullets. She cracked the gun and took out more guards. Her magazine emptied. Juniper snatched Ajax's AK-47 that he was holding uselessly. "Get back in the car! Step on the gas once we're out!" She ordered. The risk of one of them getting shot was rising by the second as more men flanked them on either side. Arthur took cover behind the car and did his best to take out as many as he could see. Ajax ran back next to him, arming himself with another AK-47, but still not finding the courage to use it.
