A deadly curse. An inescapable fortress. A possessive Lycan king who will burn the world to claim what is meant for him.

Trauma psychologist Lila Arden thought she was simply taking on a demanding new clinical assignment at the remote, heavily guarded Blackridge Retreat. She has spent the last six months teaching herself to trust the silence, entirely unaware that the looming mountain hides ancient, bloody secrets. When she crosses paths with Rafe, the enigmatic and dangerous Alpha King, her structured world is shattered. Rafe is fighting a terrifying, centuries-old madness threatening to consume his pack, and the sudden, undeniable bond he shares with Lila might be the very thing that saves or destroys them both.

Trapped inside a fortress with no exits and hunted by a ruthless enemy, Lila and Rafe are pushed into a dangerous proximity that blurs the line between professional boundaries and primal hunger. As the Blood Moon ritual approaches, Lila must navigate shattered trust, shared nightmares, and a fiercely protective Lycan who refuses to let her go. Packed with forced proximity, a gripping gothic atmosphere, and an irresistible fated-mates pull, this dark paranormal romance will hold you captive until the final page. Will Lila survive the mountain's throat, or will she surrender to the Alpha King?
