The night Alpha Kael Draven sentenced me to death, the Moon Goddess chose him as my mate. Unfortunately for both of us, I was the woman he had sworn to kill. My name is Lyra Vale. I was born without a wolf in a kingdom where being wolfless is considered a curse. For twenty-two years, I survived by keeping my head down, hiding my strange silver eyes, and pretending I knew nothing about the night my mother died. Then the most feared Alpha in the Seven Territories arrived at my village with an order bearing the royal seal. Find the girl with silver eyes. Bring her alive. Kill her before the next blood moon. Kael Draven is ruthless, arrogant, and devastatingly handsome. His reputation is built on conquered packs and enemies who never live long enough to tell their stories. He believes I possess a power capable of destroying every werewolf kingdom. I believe he is the monster who took everything from me. But when he touches me, an impossible bond awakens between us. His wolf recognizes me. My body responds to him. And the mark appearing on our skin reveals a truth neither of us can afford to accept. Someone has been murdering our kind to hide a secret buried beneath the royal throne. As enemies become unwilling allies, hatred gives way to a desire neither of us understands. Every answer brings us closer, but every secret threatens to tear us apart. Kael must choose between his crown and the woman fate has forbidden him to love. I must decide whether to trust the man who was ordered to kill me. Because the next blood moon is coming. And this time, one of us may have to die to save the other. Some bonds are written by the Moon. Others are forged in blood.
