THE ALPHA'S HIDDEN HEIR

She was the secret they buried. Now she's the power they can't contain.

"She had no name in the pack's records. No blood-bond in their ledgers. But every wolf in the clearing went still when she walked through the trees — and none of them knew why."

Eighteen years ago, a vampire princess died giving birth to a child no one was supposed to know existed. The witches hid the girl with a human woman in a small Vermont town, wiped the records, and waited for the war to end.


It never really did.


Lyra Marsh is twenty-three days past her eighteenth birthday when the wolf finds her — a man with a controlled voice and careful eyes who doesn't explain anything, just says: your father is waiting.


Her father is Caden Voss, the Alpha who has spent eighteen years believing his bloodline died with her mother. And the man who came for her — Kael Draven, his Enforcer — was supposed to deliver her safely and step back.


He's finding that harder than expected.


"She wasn't trying to challenge anything. She was just standing there, looking at the pack like she was trying to memorize it before someone took it away. That's when I stopped thinking of her as an assignment."

But Lyra's arrival doesn't just rearrange the succession. She carries a power the pack has no name for — something older than rank or bloodline — and there are factions inside and outside the territory who would rather she never learned what she is.

There are also those willing to burn everything down to make sure she does.
