The Moon Goddess made one mistake. She bound a Lycan princess to the Shadow King. Princess Amora has spent her entire life preparing to become the perfect Luna — obedient, elegant, and loyal to her kingdom. But when the dangerously beautiful ruler of Oblivaryn arrives at court, her wolf recognizes him instantly. Mate. There’s only one problem. Kaelther Morvahm Thanarion is not wolf. He is shadow, death, and ruin wrapped in a crown. Now Amora is trapped between duty and desire while kingdoms teeter on the edge of war. And the closer she gets to the Shadow King, the more she realizes the stories told about him may not be the truth at all. But falling for him could destroy everything she loves. And fate is rarely merciful.
