The Scentless Luna
For nineteen-year-old Elara Veyne, being different has always been a curse.
Unlike every other werewolf, Elara has no scent. No wolf can track her, identify her bloodline, or sense her presence unless they see her. She has always believed it was simply a strange flaw until the Moon Choosing Ceremony.
Kael Draven, the most feared Alpha in the Northern Territories, has never encountered a wolf his instincts couldn't read.
Until Elara.
The moment he sees her, his wolf makes an impossible claim.
His mate.
But there is no scent. No bond. Nothing that should make sense.
While Kael becomes determined to uncover Elara's identity, her adoptive brother Damon will do anything to keep them apart. Because Damon knows what Elara doesn't:
Her parents didn't abandon her.
They died protecting her.
Elara belongs to a bloodline believed to have vanished generations ago, a bloodline carrying an ancient power feared even by the strongest Alphas.
Then Elara's nightmares begin to reveal fragments of a forgotten past. And the mysterious man who has haunted her dreams for years is none other than Kael.
But in every dream, Kael stands over her bloodied body.
As enemies begin hunting Elara and the packs move toward war, Kael must choose between protecting the woman his wolf has claimed and uncovering the secret that could destroy his pack.
And Elara must discover why the moon chose her.
Because being scentless was never her greatest secret.
It was the reason everyone wanted her dead.

Chapter: DuskbornElara's POV Nobody moved for a long moment after the word left Kael's mouth.Damon still hadn't let go of my wrist. I could feel his pulse hammering against my skin, faster than mine, which said something given how fast mine already was. His face had gone past pale into something closer to gray, the specific color of a man watching a wall he'd spent his whole life holding up finally start to crack."Damon." Kael's voice had lost the flat, dangerous edge from a moment ago.What replaced it was worse, in a way, quieter, more patient, the voice of someone who'd already decided he wasn't leaving without answers and didn't need to raise his voice to make that true. "I'm not asking as an Alpha right now. I'm asking as the man whose wolf just spent four minutes running through the dark certain something had happened to your sister before I had any reason to know that. I think I've earned this conversation.""Not here," Damon said. His voice came out rough, cracked at the edges. "Not standi

Chapter: What the Wolf Knew FirstKael POVI woke already moving.That had never happened to me before not once, not in twenty-eight years, not through border skirmishes or council threats or the handful of genuine attempts on my life that came with holding the largest territory above the central line. I woke to danger.I didn't wake already three steps into responding to it, boots half-laced, the wolf riding so close under my skin I could feel my own pulse change shape.I'd been given a room in the guest lodge at the edge of Thorne's pack lands a separate building entirely, a good distance from the Veyne house, close enough for diplomacy and far enough to be proper about it. That distance had never bothered me before tonight.Tonight it felt like the only thing standing between me and something I couldn't yet name.Ronan was awake too, in the doorway before I'd finished with the second boot."What is it.""I don't know." That was the worst part. I

Chapter: WatchedElara's POVI didn't tell Damon about the memory.Not that day.I meant to. I walked most of the way back to our house rehearsing how I'd start. I remembered something, I need you to just listen before you say anything and by the time I reached our door I'd lost my nerve entirely.He looked so tired when he opened it, dark circles under his eyes he hadn't had two days ago, and some small, cowardly part of me decided the memory could wait one more night. He'd already given me one true thing in the long hall, in front of an Alpha and two lieutenants and a room he clearly hadn't wanted to say it in. I told myself he deserved a night to just be my brother instead of the keeper of a secret I could feel closing in from every direction.So instead I told him Kael and I had talked. Just that. He studied my face a long moment the way he does when he knows I'm giving him the edited version of something and let it go without pushing, which t

Chapter: What the Healer KnewElara's POV Kael left not long after, pulled away by Ronan's insistence that the council business couldn't wait any longer, but not before he found my eyes one more time and said, quietly, "Eleven days. I'll come back before then, whatever happens with the council." I believed him, which surprised me more than it should have, given I'd known the man for less than twenty-four hours.I didn't go find Damon like I meant to.Halfway there, my feet took a different turn entirely down the old path toward the healer's cottage at the edge of the pack lands and I didn't understand why until I was already standing in front of it.I hadn't been here in years. Healer Voss no relation, as far as I knew, to whatever Ronan had just spent ten minutes not fully explaining had retired sometime when I was small, replaced by a younger healer from the eastern packs. The cottage still stood, though, windows dark, door boarded.I stood there a long time before it hit me.Not gently. All at once, like a

Chapter: What the Healer KnewElara's POVKael walked me back toward the lodge, which I hadn't asked him to do and didn't tell him to stop doing either. We didn't talk much. There wasn't really anything left to say that wouldn't have sounded smaller than what we'd just told each other, and I think we both knew it, so we let the quiet sit instead, comfortable in a way I wouldn't have predicted twelve hours ago.Ronan was waiting at the edge of the guest lodge when we came into view. I recognized him from the long hall, the lieutenant who'd looked at me like he hadn't decided yet whether I was a threat or a joke.Up close, in daylight, he had the kind of face that gave away exactly nothing, which I was starting to understand was probably the point of a lieutenant's face."You've been gone two hours," Ronan said, to Kael, not to me. Pointedly not to me."I'm aware of how long I've been gone.""Sable's already fielding questions from three different pack elders about why the Northern Alpha spent his morning alone wit

Chapter: The Face in the Dream Elara's POV "It's you," I said. "Isn't it. That's why you went quiet."Kael didn't answer right away. He'd gone very still against the fence, the kind of still that took effort, and I was starting to recognize that particular stillness on him, it was what he did instead of flinching."Describe it again," he said. "All of it.Every detail you can remember.""Kael...""Please." His voice cracked slightly on the word, just slightly, just enough that I heard nineteen years of careful composure straining under it. "I need to know if I'm imagining the parts that match, or if they actually do."So I told him again, slower this time, watching his face instead of my own hands. The dream never changes much.I'm on the ground, somewhere cold, somewhere with too much sky. There's blood, mine, I think, though the dream never lets me look down far enough to be sure. And there's a man standing over me, close enough to touch, and for years his face was just a smear of nothing, the way dream-faces
