They called her wolfless. Worthless. A sacrifice no one would miss. Valerie Ashbourne never expected to survive the night she was delivered to Zayden Valthorne, the feared Alpha King cursed by an ancient darkness. Her father surrendered her to Blackmere Castle to settle an old debt, believing the king's curse would make certain she never returned. But the monster chained to a curse was not what she expected. Behind Zayden's terrifying silver eyes was a tortured king fighting a beast he could barely control. For years, he had kept himself chained during his transformations to protect his kingdom. Yet something impossible happens when Valerie comes near him: the darkness inside him begins to quiet. Zayden wants to understand why she can reach the part of him no one else can. Valerie wants to discover why her presence affects the king and why her own wolf has remained silent for so long. As their guarded encounters turn into trust, affection and an undeniable attraction, Valerie discovers that her supposed wolflessness is a carefully buried secret. Her wolf and hidden power were sealed away, and the mysterious silver crescent appearing on her wrist connects her to an ancient bloodline known as the Moonhearts. Her search for the truth leads her to forgotten royal records, her mother's hidden past and a dangerous connection between her bloodline and the king's curse. But the royal chancellor, Severin Voss, is determined to keep the truth buried. His involvement in the original binding threatens not only Valerie and Zayden, but the future of all five wolf kingdoms. As the royal court questions the woman standing beside its king, Valerie must reclaim the power stolen from her and uncover the truth behind the curse before its darkness consumes Zayden completely. But saving him may demand a sacrifice far greater than the one her father made. She was sent to Blackmere to die. Could the wolfless girl become the Alpha King's salvation, his chosen mate, and the queen who changes the fate of an entire kingdom?
