I never wanted a mate. Love was never meant for creatures like me. Born of darkness, I was sent to kill him—the Alpha who was fated to be mine. Disguised as a werewolf, I slipped into his pack, my heart set on completing my dark master’s will. Kill the Alpha. Break his pack. Let the shadows reign. But I never expected him—Ronan Stormbane, the Alpha who saw beyond my mask. His touch made me tremble, his voice weakened the chains of darkness binding my soul. He was fierce, protective, and everything I was supposed to destroy. The deeper I fell, the more I fought against what I was. I knew the truth would ruin me. And it did. When my identity was revealed, the betrayal in Ronan’s eyes shattered my heart more than his rejection ever could. Cast out, hunted, and bound to a darkness that still whispered my name, I should have let the shadows consume me. But love does not die so easily. I will fight for him—even if it means battling the darkness inside me. Even if I have to defy fate itself. To be his, I must sever the bond that has enslaved me to the abyss. But can love truly conquer the darkness, or will I be lost to the shadows forever?

I was born to be a villain. A ruthless Luna who craved power over love. My mate rejected me. My pack feared me. In the end… I died alone. Then I woke up—eighteen again, standing at the edge of my biggest mistake. The Moon Goddess gave me a second chance, but fate isn’t so easily rewritten. My mate still looks at me with cold, guarded eyes. The pack still whispers my name like a curse. And the future I’m running from? It’s already closing in. I have one year. One year to make him love me. One year to prove I’m not the monster they remember. One year to change my fate… Before fate decides I was never meant to change.
