To werewolves, humans are maggots.
Aurora is a human trapped in a brutal pack, betrayed by her lover, sold into marriage with a man twice her age, and now accused of the ultimate sin: stealing the Moon Core, the relic that once chained the Wolf God Lycaon himself.
The Lycans descend upon her. Four ruthless sons of Lycaon; the Scions of Sin.

Greed. Pride. Lust. Wrath.
Each brother is one of the Original Sins made flesh. Each will sacrifice anything to keep their father imprisoned forever. The Moon Core is their only weapon and now a fragile human has absorbed it.
To them, Aurora is vermin. A thief. A disposable tool.
But the Core is alive inside her, awakening powers she was never meant to wield.
The brothers who swore to destroy her begin to crave her—body, soul, and every shattered piece in between.
Now they face the impossible: kill the maggot who could end their race… or surrender to the woman destined to unravel their empire and them.

The command cut through the dungeon like a heated blade and for one suspended heartbeat Sonya didn't move.


She stayed pressed against my chest with her arms wrapped around me and her face buried in my shirt, completely still in a way that felt strange but I couldn't quite identify why.


Then she pulled back so quickly she nearly stumbled, her hands flying up in a gesture of surrender as fresh tears spilled down her cheeks.


"I'm so sorry," she whispered, her voice breaking on the words. "I wasn't thinking—I forgot about your boundaries, I just—" She pressed trembling fingers to her lips and shook her head. "I didn't mean to overstep."


The apology seemed genuine enough, and the mortification on her face looked real, but something about the moment still sat wrong in my mind even though I couldn't articulate what it was.


"It's fine," I said, my voice level despite the revulsion still crawling under my skin from her unwanted touch.
