Elara Vance is the last of the Silver Moon, a princess reduced to a "Blood Trophy" for the ruthless Alpha who slaughtered her family. She expected a life of chains and a quick death. What she didn't expect was the white-hot jolt of the fated mate bond the moment Fenris Vane touched her. Locked in the Alpha's private suite, Elara must navigate a den of monsters, a treacherous brother-in-law, and a bond that screams for the man she’s sworn to kill. But as an ancient darkness rises to swallow the mountains, Elara discovers a power within herself that could change everything. Can she love the monster who broke her, or will the shadows of the past bury them both?

For three years, she was known as the barren Luna, the Alpha's mate. But when she discovers she's pregnant, her heart swells with joy, eager to share the news. Just as she prepares to reveal her secret, Alpha Xavier drops a bombshell: he’s in love with her half-sister and wants a divorce! “Alpha Xavier, step out of that limo and face me! Don’t hide like a coward!” she challenges, her voice fierce and unwavering. “What do you want now? Money?” he replies, indifferent and dismissive, avoiding her gaze. With a smirk, she retorts, “Living among humans has dulled your senses. Those papers only split assets. We’re werewolves, remember?” Confusion flickers in his eyes as he struggles to grasp her words. Before he can react, she declares, “Right here, right now, I’m breaking our mating bond, Alpha Xavier.” A sharp pain pierces his chest—he never imagined she would take not just his heart, but his very essence.

"She leaned over to kiss me. I let her sit on my lap as I kissed her back. I let my hand explore her soft skin, lifting the thin lingerie she was wearing. I could make her naked in one rip.

They both fall into their own trap. Cenric’s true intentions and her family secrets prevail. But nothing Cenric wouldn’t do to prove that there’s more to it than their arranged marriage, even if it means befriending the man who hurts his wife.
