Only royal fae blood can lift the king's curse on the alpha bloodline. And one fae is about to pay that price… When Fae Princess Athroxane loses her father in a brutal battle, a blood curse makes her the biggest target of the wolf shifters…dead or alive. Her only hope is a risky bet to bargain for her life: if she can win the duel against the Alpha, she’ll be set free. Except, she loses the battle, binding her to a promise to help lift the curse. Problem is, the Fae Counsel forbids their kind from associating with wolf shifters, which means Athroxane is forced to chose whose trust she will betray: that of her leads, or that of wolf clan whose Alpha has already proven capable of ending her life.
