━━━ ˋ ୨ SYNOPSIS ୧ ˊ ━━━

Matthew Black walked away from La Push at twenty-one, determined to leave behind the tribe, the legends, and the destiny his father always warned him about. For seven years, he lived on his own terms in Seattle, free from the weight of tradition—until a split-second transformation shattered the illusion. When his body betrays him and shifts into something else, Matthew is forced to return home for answers.

But nothing could prepare him for what happens next.

Imprinting was supposed to be rare. It was supposed to be absolute. It wasn't supposed to bind him to Charlie Swan—Forks' gruff, unsuspecting police chief, and, to make things worse, his father's best friend.

Charlie never believed in supernatural nonsense, but when Matthew crashes back into his life—restless, territorial, and fiercely protective—he can't deny something is happening. Something irreversible. And while Matthew is ready to fight off any threat to his imprint, the real battle is against himself—against the life he left behind, the pack he never wanted, and the undeniable pull toward a man who never asked for any of this.
