She was tribute to the Supreme King. He refused to claim her by force.
When criminal psychologist Arden Vale is kidnapped and taken to the Ironclaw Dominion as human tribute, she expects death or worse. Instead, Alpha King Kael Draven marks her as his fated mate—binding her with ancient runes that awaken dormant sovereign blood she never knew she carried.

Now Arden must master her Luna-blessed abilities, navigate deadly court politics, and decide if she’ll claim the dangerous king who offers her everything—or break the bond that could destroy them both.
