Bite of the Salt Sea

Fiadhuin is a werewolf born to run the coastal fog, but she was never supposed to run alone. Stripped of her pack and publicly rejected by her fated mate, Lorcuin—heir to the ruling Tonnaragh werewolf pack—she carved out a brutal, solitary life on the night docks, tracking feral rogues for coin. But when a territorial war threatens to drown the harbor in blood, Lorcuin is forced to seek out the one wolf who knows the smuggling routes well enough to stop the slaughter. Fiadhuin demands a high price for out-hunting the rival alphas, refusing to yield to the man who broke her. Yet, as they are thrust back together in the shadows of the cannery courts, the suppressed mate bond begins to violently reawaken, proving that a rejected claim never truly dies.
