Polly Walker is dying—cursed since the night she sacrificed herself to save her daughter. She has only three months left to live.
For eight years, she's endured her Alpha husband's cruelty and humiliation. Watching him parade his mistress, Elowen, through their home while treating Polly like trash.
Shunned by her pack, and stripped of her dreams of ever becoming Luna.
On the day Murphy crowns Elowen as his Luna instead of Polly, something inside her finally breaks.
She asks for a divorce.
Murphy signs the papers—then immediately regrets it. The wife he treated as worthless suddenly refuses to be his doormat, and he can't stand losing control. Alongside the vindictive Elowen, he launches a vicious campaign to destroy Polly's final moments: threatening custody of her beloved son, sabotaging her dignity, and ensuring she dies alone and broken.
But Polly isn't alone anymore.
Because she's met him.
King Arthur Fairbairn—the Billionaire Lycan King, the ruler above all Alphas, the most powerful werewolf in England. One encounter in a hospital lobby, and he makes her a promise that shatters every certainty she has left: I will save your life. And then you will marry me.
The cure to Polly's illness exists in a forbidden vault that even kings fear to enter. Arthur will risk everything to claim it. But ancient powers don't surrender easily, and the vault holds secrets that could destroy them both.
As Arthur fights deadly forces to save her, Polly discovers the strength she never knew she possessed.
But with enemies circling, time running out, and impossible choices looming, one question remains:
Can a king conquer his greatest fear to save the woman who's conquered his heart—or will Polly's sacrifice eight years ago become the very thing that destroys them both?
