Five years ago, Briar disappeared. Kael never found her body, but he never stopped looking. Now Alpha of his pack, he’s built his reputation on one thing: rogues don’t get second chances. So when his warriors drag a rogue woman into his cells, Kael expects an enemy. Instead, he finds the girl he loved. The girl who was supposed to become his mate. The girl he buried five years ago. Briar doesn’t recognize him. Worse, she smells like another male. What Kael doesn’t know is that the scent isn’t another man. It’s her 5yr old son the child Briar has hidden from the pack because she knows exactly what happens to rogues who are discovered. And neither of them is prepared for the truth: The woman Kael spent five years mourning is alive. She’s his fated mate. And the little boy hiding just beyond the forest is his son.
