She was rejected twice. Once as a girl who believed in fate. Once as a woman who refused to beg.
Lyra Ashwyn was never meant to be luna-at least not by Blackridge Pack standards. Quiet. Overlooked. Easy to dismiss. Until the night she stepped forward when no one else would, binding herself to an alliance that would drag her straight back to the alpha who shattered her fifteen years earlier.
Kael Raventhorn denied the bond once before. He did it again-publicly. Cruelly. And that second rejection didn't just break Lyra's heart. It awakened something dangerous.
Lyra leaves Blackridge carrying a secret no one can control: a child born of alpha blood and ancient power. Hunted by rival packs and claimed by forces that see her unborn child as a weapon, Lyra must survive long enough to choose her own future.
When Bloodmoon rises and war comes to their borders, Kael is forced to face the truth he ran from-his fear cost him the one woman strong enough to stand beside him. But love doesn't erase betrayal, and fate doesn't forgive easily.
Now Lyra must decide what kind of luna she will be... and whether the alpha who broke her deserves a second chance.
Because this time, she isn't asking to be chosen.
She's choosing herself.
And if Kael wants her back, he'll have to kneel-not as an alpha, but as a man.
Can a bond survive rejection, war, and a secret powerful enough to change everything under the same moon?
