Liora is human. Broken, scarred, and running from a past that left her with nothing — until fate marks her as the mate of a powerful Alpha werewolf. She never asked for the bond. She doesn’t trust it. And she definitely doesn’t trust Alpha Kael Blackthorn, who is cold, distant, and clearly hiding pain of his own. But the moon has chosen. And choice no longer belongs to either of them. Now drawn into a world of wolves, rival packs, and dangerous tradition, Liora must fight to survive — and figure out who she is beyond the bond. The pack sees her as weak. But Kael sees something else. As the bond between them deepens, secrets are uncovered, enemies rise, and Liora must decide if she’s strong enough to become what they never expected: a Luna worth following. > A slow-burn, emotional werewolf romance about healing, destiny, and the girl who was never supposed to survive.
