Five years ago, Lyra Thorne was an Omega, scorned and wolf-less, when her mate, Alpha Ronan Kaelen, betrayed her. Fearing the Ancient Bloodline power carried by their infant son, Leo, Ronan publicly exiled Lyra, falsely accusing her of theft to protect his own political standing. Left alone to wander the wilderness in a desperate downpour, Lyra swore a vow: she would return not to beg for forgiveness, but to claim the throne Ronan thought was his. Now, she is Lyra Thorne, the CEO of Aura Dynamics, a financial genius, and the master of the terrifying, dormant Crimson Fire magic. She is back, and Ronan's mighty Shadowclaw Pack is collapsing under the weight of his incompetence and the corrupt Elders he placated. For the survival of his Pack and the protection of his son, Ronan Kaelen is forced to do the unthinkable: he must beg for Lyra’s help. Lyra’s terms are ruthless: she demands his absolute and public groveling, his complete corporate surrender, and the total demolition of his Alpha pride. As Ronan hands over his multi-billion dollar empire, sacrifices his dignity, and fights as her subordinate 'Matriarch's Shadow,' he desperately tries to prove he is finally the man and father she needs. But when a lethal attack targets Leo and Ronan sacrifices his own life to shield his son—triggering Leo's ancient healing power—Lyra must choose: will she finally forgive the man who nearly died for them, or will she choose the peace offered by the gentle, human rival, Liam Devereux? The price of her crown is agonizingly clear: Lyra wins her war, claims the Alpha title, and appoints Ronan as her devoted guardian, the Matriarch's Shadow. But her final verdict leaves Ronan in perpetual agony: she accepts his service and his sacrifice, but rejects the mate bond, forcing the man who betrayed her to grovel eternally by her side, close enough to protect, but too far to truly possess.

And on the night she catches her boyfriend and her half-sister together, Lina runs to a bar… unaware that her fate is about to change forever.
