Darkness consumes everything around it, but it’s only the faintest of light that could shatter everything. Lucian Blackcrown wants the Pack Master role. He deserves it more so than his older brother, Killian. Now that Killian is the Alpha to another pack, this should leave doors wide open for Lucian, but things are not always that simple. Lucian would have killed his brother in order to obtain the Pack Master role, once upon a time. He had every intention of doing so, until he met Sarah Golden. There’s a darkness living inside Lucian that he longs to understand. This darkness though, it could split Lucian and Sarah apart, for good, if he’s not careful. As Alpha, he is the one on top, and runs with rules and discipline. But behind closed doors, Lucian longs to bend the knee to his fated mate and submit to her, wickedness and all. Sarah Golden knows all too well the power of forgiveness, but compassion and respect are earned, not something that is given freely. After witnessing the downfall of the Blackcrown pack and the man behind it all, there is no way she could allow Lucian to claim her as his mate. With a surprising turn of fate, Sarah finds herself in a position of power she never expected. Lucian will fight like hell to earn back Sarah’s trust, her love, and above all else, his fated mate, but will Sarah be able to forgive Lucian and accept the new life she’s been offered?
