Claimed by the Pack's Enemy - A Rival Pack Standalone Romance #997279

Her mission was to get close to him. Her wolf woke up the moment she walked in the room. Neither of those things was in the brief.

Nadia is Blackthorn's most careful operative. Eleven years of building covers, running extractions, staying invisible. She doesn't get rattled. She doesn't get attached. She doesn't let her wolf have opinions about the job.

Then she walks into a hotel bar in Varrow and Zane Mercer is already at the counter — the Ironveil enforcer who has dismantled more of her pack's infrastructure than anyone alive — and her wolf, which has been silent for eight years, says one word.
Him.

The mission is simple: get close to him before cease-fire negotiations end and extract Ironveil's intelligence on a plague that's killing wolves in both territories. Simple. She knows how to build cover. She knows how to look real enough that people don't check the seams.

The problem is that Zane Mercer checks everything.
And when he puts classified documents across the table that prove her pack's death count has been falsified — that wolves are dying in Blackthorn territory and someone has been feeding her the wrong numbers — the mission stops being what the briefing said it was. Because the plague isn't emerging. It was built. And the person who built it is running operations out of the same organization that employs her.

Now they're working the same investigation from opposite sides of a pack war. His wolf has been loud for nine years and has gone still for the first time since his brother died. Her wolf has been silent for eight and won't stop pressing against her ribs. Between them is a manufactured conspiracy, a falsified death count, and the specific danger of two people who are very good at not trusting anyone discovering that the one person they trust is each other.

Claimed by the Pack's Enemy is a slow-burn, dual POV paranormal suspense romance set in a city where pack war runs underground and the real danger isn't who you're fighting — it's what the person who sent you into the room already knew.

Expect two operatives who are too smart to fall easy, a conspiracy with real stakes, and a bond that builds from evidence rather than instinct — because by the end, they've both earned it.
