Seven miscarriages. Seven shattered dreams. And with every child she lost, Luna Seraphina Ashvale lost another one of her nine tails. With no one believing in her or wanting her to remain the Queen of the Lucan Kingdom, Seraphina has no choice but to step down as Luna and leave the only home she has ever known as even her mate, King Kael Draven does not defend her, or oppose the decision. She is left alone and broken, and walks into rogue territory, where she is captured, to be sold at a slave auction but she war rescued. With the aid of the mighty Alpha Ronan Varkos, Seraphina slowly begins to reconstruct her lost life. His kindness takes away her pain, his friendship brings her back to trust, his love provides her with the courage to believe in happiness again. Until she finds out that it was all a lie. The man she trusted most took her power using forbidden magic, and gave up her future for his own. But this time, Seraphina will not be the victim. She smiles. She waits. And she watches her enemy die at the bite of her poison she's fed him. Revenge is only the first step, however. As a whole kingdom rejects a woman as its monarch, war breaks out all over the kingdom. In order to win the crown that is hers by right, Seraphina must turn to the one man she vowed never to face again: her first mate. As the secrets of the past reveal themselves, Seraphina finds that the biggest betrayal may never have been the betrayal itself. Now it's up to her to either continue to pursue her revenge, or battle to preserve what she was denied before it's too late.
