The moon bleeds red, the wolves bow in fear, and an ancient prophecy awakens.Lyria soon discovers that her bloodline hides the key to the First Wolf’s power — a force capable of uniting or destroying every pack on earth. Torn between a duty she despises, a bond she never wanted, and a destiny she can’t escape, Lyria must choose: surrender to the politics that chain her… or unleash the wolf that could burn her entire world.As lies crumble and loyalties shift, one truth remains — the moon always demands its price.
