The government calls them dangerous. The Directorate calls them property. While the Wardens call them prey.

In a dystopian world where wolves are registered, monitored, and bred like livestock, three bonded alphas have survived by staying hidden— Lucian Thorne, the protector; Malachai Vex, the strategist; and Raze Ashford, the chaos that keeps them all alive. Their pack stable. Their bond unbreakable. Until Sage Kross’s heat cycle awakens.

But when his heat reaches critical levels, his scent draws the three alphas like a siren call—and the bond that ignites between them becomes forbidden. As multi-alpha bonds are pack extremism. And male omega pregnancies become biological heresy. Together, they are everything the Directorate fears.

And as the Wardens close in and suppressors fail, the pack must finally choose: hide deeper among the shadows or join the Feral Collective rising along the dark. But protecting Sage means defying the government. And claiming him means revolution. But when his heat triggers a pregnancy that proves the Directorate’s lies about what wolves are, Sage becomes the symbol of rebellion that could shatter the system itself.
