MARKED BY THE MONSTER

Reads

She came to kill him. Lena Voss is the best contract killer in the business. Six Alphas confirmed. Zero survivors. When a handler slides a briefing folder across a diner table with a fee large enough to make her disappear forever, she takes the job. The target: Alpha Kael Dray. Northern Pack. Two centuries old and reportedly unkillable. She fires a silver bullet into his chest from sixty metres. He pulls it out with two fingers, holds it up to the moonlight, and looks directly at her hiding spot, like he'd been waiting. She runs. They catch her. And then Kael Dray does the one thing she never planned for. He keeps her. Not as a prisoner. Not as leverage. As something she doesn't have a name for yet, something that makes her pulse do things she refuses to acknowledge and makes a two-hundred-year-old Alpha break his own rules one by one. But Lena didn't walk into this territory by accident. Someone sent her here knowing she'd fail. Someone who has been watching her for years. Someone who knows about the sister she thought she lost in a fire when she was seventeen. She came here to end something. She had no idea what she was about to find.
