In the shadows of a kingdom ruled by the formidable King Marcus, a wolf-less and orphaned Lara finds herself ensnared in the shackles of slavery. Her spirit, though captive, harbors a yearning for freedom. In a daring bid to break free, Lara strikes a perilous deal – she agrees to become a spy, with King Marcus as her target. King Marcus, a stormy-eyed libertine with an aura of dominance, is grappling with the impending threat posed by Alpha Felis, the demon king. Racing against time to save both his kingdom and his wolf, Marcus encounters Lara. A mysterious spy, she becomes a tantalizing temptation that challenges Marcus's command over his own fate. Caught in a web of intrigue, Marcus is faced with an impossible choice: protecting his kingdom or succumbing to the allure of his unexpected mate. Will Lara prioritize her hard-fought freedom and turn away from the mate she never sought? Or will she relinquish the only desire she's ever known for the sake of an uncertain destiny? The stage is set for a gripping tale of love, loyalty, and the ultimate price one must pay for freedom.
"Shut up!" Fafnir warned Morava.
"Shut up?" Morava spat. "Who are you to give me orders, dimwit?" Her gaze turned to Tania. "You? You are back with your shenanigans? What have you done to my mother? And why are you sitting with these men?" Jealousy stabbed her heart seeing Tania amongst the very people she wanted to be with. But the main question that popped in her mind was how did she get here. Wasn't she supposed to be going to the Nyxers? She wanted to ask Tania about it, but she had to show that she was ignorant about what happened to her.
Tania narrowed her eyes at Morava. The woman was purely… malicious. She got up and closed the gap between them as Marcus watched her with his arms crossed across his chest. He looked as if he would tear apart Morava if she even dared to touch Tania.
"Too many questions," Tania said, removing a twig from Morava's hair. She tossed it at her face.
