His Adopted Daughter, His Student, Their Lover

She was claimed. She was broken. Now they both want her back but this time she makes the rules. Carols life was never her own. First an Alpha who called her his fated mate raised her under his iron fist molding her into the perfect survivor. Then a stranger with hypnotic blue eyes took her body and vanished without a trace. Years later both men return. One demands her absolute submission. The other awakens a hunger she cannot suppress. But they are both lying. Because Carol is not just a pawn fought over by two powerful men. She is the missing crown in a deadly game between werewolves and vampires. Her blood holds the secret that could rewrite the war between species. And the closer she gets to the truth The more dangerous her desire becomes. Loving either of them could destroy her. Choosing neither? A massacre will follow. Unless she finds a third path. Not as their mate. Not as their prey. But as the hunter.
