“I, Dominic Cherith, reject you, Inez Sinclair, as my mate. A lying, traitorous tramp like you has no right to become my mate and the Luna of this pack.” 

As a half shifter, Inez Sinclair had hoped and dreamt of the day when she would meet her mate for the first time. However, the dreamy fantasy turned into her hellish nightmare when her ex-best friend and mate rejected her in front of the pack. 

To cap it all, he did it with a trash can turned upside down on her head. 

The reason? She had betrayed him, but Inez had no idea about this unknown betrayal that he spoke of. 

After years of endless torment, this rejection was the final blow that broke the camel’s back. Inez finally came to face the reality that she had been ignoring for years. 

Her best friend was gone, and in place of him stood a fiend who looked at her as if she was his worst enemy. 

But what truly broke her was the last betrayal of her mate. 

Withholding the last fragments of their mating bond, Dominic slept with another shifter—a shifter she despised and loathed, causing Inez to feel every bit of pleasure he gave the woman. Hear every sigh and moan through their mating bond. 

The impact broke her and left her wolf half dead.  

Not wanting to waste any more time with the awful bastard, Inez was prepared to run away from the pack, even if it meant to die as a rogue or live between humans where the fanatics could kill her for being a shifter. 

Only if she knew that Dominic blamed her for the death of his sister Abertha. 

And he caught her stealing the Tears of Sirens in the surveillance recording—the magical remedy that could bring the dead back to life!

Ironically, Inez was part siren. 

Something she never relayed to anyone in the pack, not even Dominic for shifters took sirens as their slaves, tormenting them in hope that they would shed Tears of Siren. The endless torment only brought one thing to sirens: Death. 

She swore to never let anyone find out about the truth—that was until she ran into Killian Sokolov, an Alpha Lycan shifter. 

A man of sheer masculinity and charm and an unknown anger packed in ice so thick. 

With his slick lies, he could win the heart of any woman but refuses to leave her alone after finding out that Inez was part siren. 

But as a part siren, why would Inez steal the Siren’s tears? And if she didn’t steal them, whom did Dominic see in the surveillance recording?

As secrets unfolds and boundaries set in stones disappear –

Would Inez and Killian give love a second chance, letting go of their past? And to what lengths would Dominic go if he found out the truth? 

Will Killian be able to heal her broken heart before all is lost?

"I do know that," he muttered through clenched teeth. If he didn't know this, then why would he bother chasing after her? 


Do you really now? I don't see you trying to imprint on her. 


Killian clenched his hands and slowly forced them to relax. Though the effort alone felt like he was trying to force open a vacuum chamber. It wasn't that he wasn't trying to imprint on her; however, each time he tried to imprint on Inez, something held him back. It was not her fault; he knew that. It was all him, and he was trying to work on those thoughts of her. 


 You keep doing that, and she will soon get tired of you dragging your shit. 


Killian closed his eyes and then tried to suppress the rage that was burning within his heart; he knew that if he tried to approach Inez like this, it would only make her drift further from him.
