The Alpha's Bond

He feels her fear. She feels his pain. Their enemy knows how to weaponize both.

Addie Flynn is no longer a fugitive.

She has awakened the wolf suppressed inside her, claimed her place beside Alpha Rhyden Black, and bound herself to him through a permanent blood-bond. But freedom has not silenced the guilt of three pack members lost during the attack that nearly destroyed Blackwood.

Now Addie is determined to repay the pack by helping rebuild its shattered defenses. She knows the Recovery Group's methods better than anyone. She understands how its hunters think, how they manipulate their targets, and how they turn fear into a weapon.

The Council of Elders sees something else.

A liability.

Rhyden is injured, politically vulnerable, and facing a formal Inquest for abandoning his post to save his mate. His bond with Addie should make them stronger, but every spike of her fear tears through him. Every flare of his pain echoes inside her. He promised to treat her as an equal, yet trusting her to face danger without him may be the hardest command he has ever given himself.

Then Keith Moon begins using Blackwood's stolen security archive against them.

Patrol routes become traps. Private decisions become public evidence. Grief turns into suspicion as Moon exposes the pack's weaknesses without ever stepping inside its borders.

To survive, Addie and Rhyden must prove their bond has not compromised them.

It has made them dangerous.

But when instinct demands possession and love demands trust, protecting each other may mean letting go at the moment it hurts most.
