“They treated me like I was nothing… But now, I was everything they feared.”
Born as an unwanted omega in a family of Alphas, Evelyn Carter lived her life as a shadow — beaten, insulted, and discarded by the very people who were supposed to protect her. Her only dream was to find her mate and escape her nightmare.
But fate had other plans. On her eighteenth birthday, Evelyn found her mate… only to be cruelly rejected.
As if fate hadn’t been cruel enough— she was then forced to marry her stepsister’s mate, Alpha Marcus, after Madison was supposedly “killed” in a rogue attack.
Only later did Evelyn discover the horrifying truth: Madison was alive. Her father had sent her away from the cruel curse of Alpha Marcus. And in her place Evelyn was thrown in the face of death, for the sake of an alliance.
Despite the lies and deceit, Evelyn fought to survive. She fought Marcus’s curse, risking her life to save his. Because she loved him. She fulfilled her duty as a Luna.
She gave her all to Marcus — only to be betrayed again when her sister returned and falsely accused Evelyn of instigating an attack on her a year ago.
Marcus believed the lie.
He rejected her.
Stripped her of her Luna title.
Banished her.
But she didn’t break. Instead she rose.
She left behind the weak Evelyn Carter.And it marked the beginning of Evelyn Ashthorne.
Now after four years, she was an Alpha of a secret pack, hidden deep in the forest between two kingdoms.
A pack she built.
A pack of survivors.
People who have been rejected by their mates, who have been betrayed by their own people and ridiculed and tortured by those in power.
They don’t bow to kings.
They answer to one name—Evelyn.
She leads with wisdom, strength, and scars that never fully healed. She doesn’t need a mate to define her.
But when Evelyn enters the Royal Academy, hoping to train and grow stronger for her pack, she comes face to face with the people who destroyed her.
Including Alpha Marcus.
Including her past.
Including… the Alpha King.
A man cursed to never find a mate. A man whose wolf awakens the moment it senses her.
She doesn’t believe in mates anymore. And he’s never supposed to have one.
So why can’t they stay away from each other?
And what will happen when the Alpha King finds out Evelyn is the rogue leader everyone is hunting?
Will he destroy her?
Or claim her as his Luna?
