Synopsis
"Are you serious?!" Nemesia exclaimed, spitting blood. The silver in her system wreaked havoc, turning her healing wounds into bleeding sores. She lifted her eyes to the man who had promised to stand by her side and love her.
The man she believed was sent by the goddess herself. They were meant to be together forever. She had done everything for him throughout their reign, dirtying her hands to ensure he remained an unblemished king in the eyes of their subjects. She endured the disdain of his parents, and the current rulers, and maneuvered him into the position of heir apparent over his siblings. She suffered and toiled for him because they were destined wolves.
So why... WHY was he now before her, holding some scrawny blonde waif he had found battered in the woods? What did it matter that she was poor and had suffered? What did it matter how she was treated? Why was she crying at his side while Nemesia, his future queen and partner, was drenched in her own blood from the silver whip's lashings?
"Melody is such a delicate creature, how could you treat her so harshly? I don't need a queen who's a monster!" Marco, the future king, her mate, hissed in anger.
Shocked, Nemesia burst into laughter.
"You don't need me? You made me a monster! You wanted power, you got it... and now you want to discard me? You'll regret this!" She bared her fangs.
Melody cowered in Marco's embrace as he shouted for the guards to load Nemesia onto a wagon and take her to the Tower. The Tower! That's where she had banished many of his enemies... and now he wanted to send her there?
Not over her dead body! Goddess, do you see how your faithful child suffers? I will have my revenge... I promise you!

In a medieval world where werewolves roam the lands and their loyalties are bound by the moon's whims, Nemesia finds herself betrayed by her mate, Marco, the future lycan king for whom she sacrificed everything. Her descent into vengeance begins when Marco chooses Melody, a weak shifter girl with a troubled past, over her. Cast aside and condemned to the Tower, a place of despair for the kingdom's foes, Nemesia's story is not just about a fall from grace but a fight for power, identity, and retribution against those who wronged her. In a time when the line between hero and villain blurs, Nemesia's journey challenges the very fabric of their society, questioning the nature of love, loyalty, and the price of true power.
