Aria Parker has waited twelve years for her mating ceremony—through ninety-nine postponements, a thousand apologies, and every promise her Alpha ever broke. On the day she is finally meant to walk down the aisle, Alexander Reed carries another woman into the hospital and asks Aria to wait… again. This time, Aria doesn’t. She returns the ring, tears up the invitations, and walks away from the pack that took everything she built. But leaving an Alpha isn’t as simple as closing a door. Rumors flare, loyalties fracture, and Alexander’s desperation turns dangerous when he realizes the one thing he assumed he owned has chosen freedom. Aria will not be his consolation prize. She will not be the Luna who smiles while her heart is torn apart. If Alexander wants her back, he’ll have to face the truth: Aria was never his to postpone.
