Chapter 1

I was born with a feral desire.

As the only daughter of the Silvervein Pack's Alpha, my instincts demanded a high-intensity, deeply matched mate.

Ordinary wolves couldn't handle my passion.

I needed someone who could match my hunger.

When it came to choosing a mate, I chose Silas.

He was the younger brother of the deceased Alpha of the Shadowspine Pack, and the next in line to lead.

He was just as wild as me, and in bed, we were a perfect match.

I had expected our mating to be full of endless, breathless nights.

But three months into our marriage, we had barely finished a single night together.

Every single time we got close, we were interrupted.

And the person interrupting us was always Sienna.

She was the widow of Silas's late brother, Mason.

For the twentieth time, right when things were heating up in the middle of the night, Silas's phone rang. It was Sienna.

"Silas, the power went out at the villa. It's pitch black, and I'm scared to be alone."

I wrapped my legs tight around Silas's waist, trying to suppress the anger that had been building up for months. "Silas, don't you dare leave tonight."

But he was already pulling away, grabbing his clothes and dressing quickly.

He looked at me like I was being unreasonable.

"My brother just passed away. Sienna is still drowning in grief. I have to be there for her. I need to help her through this."

I watched him walk out. He didn't even look back. This time, I didn't try to stop him.

Three days later, I slammed the divorce papers right in front of him.

"We are done. If you can't satisfy me, don't waste my time. I'll find an Alpha who can."
