Some secrets are unforgivable, some betrayals cut too deep. And this time . . . This time I may lose them forever. I spent eighteen years as a victim. Eighteen years where I was broken, shattered, pried apart, and carelessly thrown back together. Now, the glue that keeps my fractured soul from rupturing needs to hold firm, or the four fierce lycans who swore to protect me will die to keep me safe . . . The Assembly is no place for a human. Especially not one standing trial. Surrounded by lycans who'd like nothing more than to see me dead, forced to participate in lethal games, and hunted by enemies shrouded in shadows, my world is unravelling. The only thing keeping me sane is the four possessive wolf shifters ready to sacrifice everything to ensure my survival. But when faces from the past return, the fragile trust I've built with my wolves is shaken to its core, and all the terrible secrets I once did everything to keep are clawing their way to the surface. Out of time, I'm forced to make a choice. A choice that might cost me everything. Contains mature themes.
