Born of the Moon Goddess herself, the First Pack has stood for centuries—its land alive with ancient power, its Alpha bloodline sacred and unquestioned.As the Alpha’s daughter, Elara has always been loved by the pack… and pitied. While others shift and run beneath the moon, she never received a wolf. Instead, she carries a different gift—one whispered of in prophecy and feared by those who crave power.When she turns eighteen, the pack’s Beta—her father’s closest friend and sworn guardian—feels something he should never feel.A mate bond.Bound by loyalty and honor, he buries the truth, walking away from temptation and silencing his heart. But destiny is patient. And when Elara turns twenty-one, the Moon Goddess awakens what was always meant to be.As betrayal festers within the pack and ancient enemies rise, Elara must discover who—and what—she truly is. Because she was never meant to be protected forever.She was meant to rule.And the guardian who tried to resist fate may be the only one strong enough to stand beside her.🌙 When the Moon chooses, even the strongest vows can break.
