THE DORMANT LUNA Book 1
# Iron Valley
Neah is human, living in a world that was never hers.
After her parents die in a car crash when she is fifteen, her mother's best friend—the Luna of the Iron Valley Pack takes her in. Neah grows up alongside Caleb, the future Alpha, training with warriors, earning her place through grit and stubbornness alone. She has plans: college, business school, a life built on her own terms. She knows she will never have a mate. She knows she doesn't belong.
Then everything shatters.
Caleb finds his true mate and Neah is cast aside overnight. Wolves from rival packs show up at the border asking for her by name. A half-dead Alpha from the most powerful pack in three territories crashes into her life claiming *she* is his mate. And a phone call from a voice she buried three years ago delivers an impossible truth—her mother is alive, her father's death was no accident, and someone has been watching her since the day of the crash, waiting for the right moment to collect.
Liam Ashford, the ruthless young Alpha of Shadow Peak, never wanted a mate. He watched the bond destroy his father and nearly destroy his pack. But his wolf dragged him across three territories to a human girl with no wolf, no rank, and no idea how valuable she really is.
Neah doesn't need a mate. She needs answers. But the closer she gets to the truth, the more she realizes the bond she keeps rejecting may be the only thing standing between her and the people who want her dead.
What is it about a ordinary human girl that has every powerful wolf in the region willing to kill or die to claim her?

Chapter: CHAPTER 88NEAH"Let him go," I say.Liam's head snaps toward me. "Absolutely not.""We let him walk. No one dies. We regroup and find another way."Vance's smile is cold. Victorious. "Smart girl.""I'm not done talking." I take a step closer. The golden light pulses in my hands. "You walk out of here. You report back to Kessler. You tell him exactly what you saw. My healing ability. My Stage Six activation. All of it.""Neah, what are you doing?" Theo asks quietly."Baiting the trap." I look at Vance. "You want safe passage? Fine. But you deliver a message for me first.""What message?""Tell Kessler I'm coming for him. Tell him I know about the backup labs. The serum stocks. The rogue Alpha recruitment. Tell him I'm going to burn it all down just like I burned the compound. And tell him that next time, he won't see me coming until it's too late."Vance stares at me. "You're insane.""I'm motivated. There's a difference." I step back. "Liam, let him go.""This is a mistake.""It's my mistake to

Chapter: CHAPTER 87THEOThe figure in the doorway steps into the light.Jax.Relief floods through me. Not the traitor. Just Liam's third-in-command checking on the war room situation."You look like you've seen a ghost," Jax says."Worse. A security breach." I turn the laptop around. Show him the threat message. "Someone remotely accessed my system. They know I found the operative list."Jax's expression darkens. "How long ago?""Three minutes.""Then they're still close. Probably monitoring from inside the camp." He keys his radio. "All Shadow Peak security, Code Black. Lock down all communications. No one transmits anything until further notice.""That'll tip them off that we know.""They already know you know. Now we control the information flow." He looks at me. "You said y

Chapter: CHAPTER 86THEOI stare at the satellite footage for the third time, hoping the results will change.They don't.A helicopter. Lifting off from the north side of the compound exactly four minutes before the primary explosions. Two figures visible in the passenger seats through thermal imaging. One matches Kessler's build. The other could be Nathan Price.They escaped.I planned for serum wolves. For building collapse. For casualty extraction. For chemical exposure. For every contingency I could calculate.Except a helicopter extraction from a self-destructing facility.My failure.I close the laptop harder than necessary. The sound echoes through the empty war room. Most of the warriors are resting. Recovering. Celebrating survival.I'm here. Alone. Cataloguing mistakes."Brooding doesn't suit you."I turn. Caleb stands in the doorway, still in tactical gear, dried blood on his shirt that isn't his."I'm not brooding. I'm analyzing.""You're beating yourself up." He walks in. Sits across from me

Chapter: CHAPTER 85NEAHI wake up in a medical tent.The smell hits me first. Antiseptic. Blood. Sweat. Pain. I can smell all of it. Distinguish between fresh wounds and healing ones. Between wolf blood and human blood.My senses are sharper than they were before the accelerant. Everything is clearer. Louder. More."You're awake." Liam's voice. Close. I turn my head and he's sitting beside my cot, hand wrapped around mine. He looks exhausted. Dark circles under his eyes. Jaw tight with tension."How long was I out?""Four hours.""Four hours?" I try to sit up. My body protests. Every muscle aches. "There are wounded. I need to help.""You collapsed mid-step healing your fourteenth patient. Your body gave out. You're not helping anyone if you're unconscious.""I'm fine now.""You

Chapter: CHAPTER 84LIAMNeah collapses.The golden light that erupted from her when she took the accelerant fades, leaving her crumpled on the floor. Her body convulses once. Twice. Then goes terrifyingly still.I catch her before she hits the ground. "Neah!"No response. Her pulse is racing. Erratic. The second heartbeat in her chest pounds so hard I can feel it through her ribs."What's happening to her?" I demand, rounding on Nathan.He watches with clinical detachment. "The accelerant is activating all dormant markers simultaneously. Her body is integrating wolf DNA in real time. It's exactly what's supposed to happen.""She's dying!""Possibly. Or she's evolving. We'll know in approximately thirty seconds."I want to rip his throat out. Kain is roaring inside me, demanding blood. But I can't let go of Neah. Can't stop holding her while her body tears itself apart from the inside.An explosion rocks the building. Closer. Louder."We need to move," Theo says urgently. "The support columns are failing

Chapter: CHAPTER 83NEAHThe broken syringe bleeds clear liquid across the desk.Nathan stares at it like I've just destroyed something sacred. Maybe to him, I have. His life's work. His failsafe. His ultimate control.Gone."You have no idea what you've just done," he says quietly."I know exactly what I've done. I chose myself. The version of me that you created but can't control."His jaw tightens. "You think you're strong enough to survive what's coming? The activation is accelerating. Your body is changing faster than your mind can adapt. Eventually the markers will complete whether you want them to or not. And when they do, there's a sixty percent chance your system can't handle it.""Then I'll be in the forty percent that survives.""Neah." Elena's voice comes through the reinforced glass. Weak but conscious. "Don
