A forced marriage binds a scarred hybrid to an Alpha who cannot recognize his true mate.
Bella carries the invisible weight of past brutality into a union arranged to exploit her hybrid lineage. At a secluded hot spring, a primal mating bond snaps into place between her and Alpha Edward, yet darkness and steam obscure their faces, leaving the recognition nameless. She conceals her true nature to survive fresh cruelty, while an impostor maneuvers to usurp her position. Edward, meanwhile, aches for a mate he has felt but never seen, creating a tension between instinctual certainty and deliberate deception.
