He claimed the wrong omega.

Talia was supposed to be off the registry, but when the High Alpha is found dead, her bond is put up for auction.

Nearly overnight, she’s claimed by a ruthless alpha with one goal: Bring down the Kade family and claim his place as High Alpha.

But Talia isn’t the obedient omega he expected. She fights him at every step, determined to protect her sister and her new mate, Mikah Kade.

Raden Calder never intended to bond her, only use her as leverage. But the first time another alpha looks at her too long, his wolf rises with a single, undeniable command: Touch her and die.

Now the bond neither of them wanted is awakening…and the omega he promised to free may be the one he refuses to let go.
