Ember Crown

A man lying still with his eyes closed in a dim room, a blonde woman's bare shoulder beside him.

I hid my face there and thought about Liora. Liora in the quarry with glass in her jacket, her scarred hand closed into a fist.

It was a coward's trick. I did it anyway.

She came with her nails in my back, and I came a few strokes after and said nothing at all.

Synopsis

Liora Quill has spent her whole life making herself small so her twin sister Sabine will not punish the people she loves. Everyone in Cinderhollow Pack thinks Sabine is the golden daughter and Liora is the spare who causes trouble. No one knows Liora is the best fighter in the pack. No one knows the future Alpha is her mate. When Sabine almost kills her, the Alpha King Orrick Mael carries Liora out of the dark. He sees the old power in her blood. He sees the goddess sleeping under her scars. Liora must choose between the mate who failed her and the king who will burn the pack down to keep her safe. Orrick will protect her. Sabine will answer for every mark she left.
