They don’t protect what they don’t own.The first night I step outside, I meet Cam—Hollow’s Alpha. Cold eyes. Heavy presence. Gold chain at his throat. A neck tattoo that tells you he’s done things he won’t talk about. One look from him and I feel something I don’t want to feel. Then he does the worst thing he could do.He rejects me.Not quiet. Not private. In a way that makes sure everybody knows I’m nothing.I don’t beg. I don’t fold. I don’t run.But Hollow Ridge doesn’t let you stay untouched. Rogues circle the edges. Rival packs pull up looking for blood. School isn’t safe. Home isn’t safe. And my mom’s past—whatever she’s been hiding—starts dragging the whole pack toward war.Cam wants me back when it’s too late to undo the damage.Now I have to decide what rejection turns me into… and what I’m willing to lose to protect the only people I’ve got.A gritty werewolf romance filled with rejection, pack politics, street-level tension, and emotions that hit hard.
