The Alpha's Cursed Vow - A Rejected Mate Werewolf Shifter Romance #977603

She's been packless for fourteen years — and the moment she crosses his border, her body recognizes what her mind refuses to accept.
Senna Vael is the best tracker in the Northern Reaches. She finds what packs lose and asks no questions. When the Greyvast Pack hires her to recover a stolen relic, she expects a clean transaction — four weeks, full payment, clean exit. She does not expect the phantom scent that hits her at the border marker like something she has no name for but recognizes in her bones.

Aldric Kael has run his pack alone for seven years, ever since he made the choice that saved a war and shattered something inside him. His gift has been running wrong ever since, quietly consuming his wolves from the inside. He commissioned an outside tracker because he needed a solution. He did not anticipate that the solution would be a specific person — or that wanting her would be the first true thing he'd felt in seven years.
The bond between them is real. So is the curse killing his pack. So is the villain who built her exit from the only materials Senna has ever trusted: true things, carefully repositioned.
One of them has to stop running. Both of them have to stop lying.

The Alpha's Cursed Vow is a slow-burn, steamy paranormal romance set in an ancient world of wolf-pack politics, old-compact mythology, and two people dismantling their survival logic in real time. Complete HEA. No cliffhanger.
Read it somewhere warm.
