For five years, Lyra Slade has been the Luna of Stormcrest—the most powerful Alpha in the five territories—but to her husband Gideon, she's nothing but a bed warmer he keeps in his cage.
On the night she finally begs him to mark her as his true mate, Gideon pulls back his fangs and reveals he's never forgiven her for allegedly bribing a Wolf Shaman to steal her way into the bond.
But when she flees to the Ironclad Pack, a Beta with a twenty-five-year-old portrait drops to his knees—Lyra isn't wolfless at all. She's the lost Princess of the Ironclad Pack, and her inner wolf is only sleeping.
Lyra walks away from Stormcrest, claims her birthright, and is crowned the first female Alpha of the Ironclad Pack—returning to the Alpha Conclave not as Gideon's discarded wife, but as his equal.
But Daphne, the woman who's been faking a leg injury to stay close to Gideon for years, has already sold the pack's defense plans to their oldest rivals. War is coming—and she's coming for Lyra's son first
