She was never supposed to be found.
Ilinca Hollow carves wards for coin at the edge of a border market, hiding a bloodline she doesn’t even know she carries. Six years of careful smallness have kept her alive. They can’t keep her hidden from the mate bond that ignites the instant Crown Prince Kason Draguvane’s wolf catches her scent across a crowded square — and they can’t keep her hidden from the enemies who have hunted her family for two hundred years.
Kason is heir to a throne, weeks from a political marriage his kingdom desperately needs. He doesn’t expect a rogue wardsmith to undo ten years of careful duty in a single unguarded breath. But his wolf has already chosen her, and no Council law is going to change what his body decided the moment he found her.
Because Ilinca isn’t just a rogue. She’s the last living heir of the Frostmark line — the royal bloodline Kason’s own throne was built over — and the Unbound will burn every border town, every safehouse, every fragile shred of trust between a prince and the woman he loves to claim the blood in her veins.
The mate bond makes her his. Surviving what comes next will take something even more dangerous: two people who refuse to let fear decide anything for either of them, ever again.
