Alina Stone was never meant to become a Luna.She was sent as a bride, not to be loved, but to destroy.Born of a nomad clan sworn to vengeance, Alina enters the Darkfur court under a borrowed name and a forged smile, married to an Alpha who doesn’t even bother to attend his own wedding. Her mission is simple: live, learn, and turn the Darkfur legacy to dust from the inside out.But Lucien Darkfur is not the monster she expected.Cursed, feared, and still bound to the memory of his dead mate, Lucien has ruled from the shadows for decades. Avoiding his people, his crown, and now his wife. Cold-eyed and merciless, he offers Alina a marriage in name only: five years, no love, no heirs, no promises. A convenient contract between strangers.It should have been perfect.Except Lucien sees too much.And Alina feels too deeply.As court politics sharpen into blades and secrets rot beneath the palace floors, attraction ignites where hatred should live. Lucien begins to sense the danger Alina carries; not just to his throne, but to his heart. And Alina, sworn to ruin his world, finds herself drawn to the very man she was sent to betray.Between a brother who watches too closely, a mother who knows too much, and a goddess who never gives without taking, one truth becomes impossible to escape:Some marriages are forged in blood.Some wars begin in the heart.And when a spy becomes a Luna, everything burns.
