Elara has always been strong—because she’s had no choice. Poor, overlooked, and dismissed by a town that values silk and silver over grit and sweat, she has survived by sheer will alone. Every coin, every scrap of food, every ounce of strength in her body is earned the hard way. She’s used to being underestimated, even despised.

But under the light of the full moon, everything changes.

When a stranger with molten-gold eyes steps from the shadows, Elara feels power in him that both terrifies and awakens something deep inside her. He knows her name, knows the fire she hides beneath her rough exterior—and he sees her as no one else ever has.

Drawn to him by forces she can’t explain, Elara is swept into a world of primal instinct and raw desire, where danger stalks the woods and secrets pulse in every heartbeat. His touch ignites heat she has never known, his presence makes her body ache with longing—and yet he is more than a man. He is wild. He is untamed. He is a predator who claims that she is his.

Torn between the harsh life she knows and the forbidden passion calling to her, Elara must decide: will she fight for her place in a world that never wanted her… or surrender to the fierce love of a man who was never meant to be human?

Stealing someone's property is not her thing. But when she saw him for the first time it seemed like the cycle of her world changed. But she knew he was off-limits because it is a mistake to love someone when your bestfriend owns it. But she did not think that their friendship would end because of just one mistake.

Can she correct her mistake to restore the broken friendship?

They called me Specter. The King of Assassins. The deadliest blade in the Viper Syndicate's history. I never knew fear until the day my own brother in blood put a knife in my heart and threw me off a cliff.
I should have died.
Instead, I woke up in the body of Liana Vex, the discarded, illegitimate daughter of the most powerful duke in the kingdom. A girl so broken by abuse and grief that her spirit had already faded. In her final moments, she left me one desperate wish: Make them pay.
So I made a pact with a ghost. Her pain would become my fuel. Her enemies would become my prey.
Now I walk among the nobility in a body everyone calls weak. They see a fragile girl who should have died in the gutter. They don't see the killer standing in her shadow.
My former organization thinks they buried their king. They're about to learn that dead things don't always stay dead.
My new family thinks I'm a ghost they can ignore. They're about to discover that ghosts make the worst enemies.
And then there's him, the rogue mercenary with the sharp smile and sharper blade. The only person who sees through my masks. My rival. My equal. The wolf who should know better than to chase a shadow.
They say revenge is a dish best served cold. I intend to serve it frozen, bloody, and with interest.
The Viper Syndicate took my life. The Vex family took Liana's. I'm going to take everything they have.
And this time? I won't miss it.
