Cursed Bonds:The Wolflees Luna's Redemption
She was exiled to die.
Chloe Moonwhisper gave her pack years of loyalty. They repaid her by cutting the wolf out of her and casting her into the snow.
She should have died there.
Instead, a King found her, one bound by a curse three centuries old, one that has been quietly killing his bloodline for generations. He needs something only she can give him. She needs somewhere to survive.
What starts as a bargain becomes something neither of them can stop.
But the Shadow Court is not the safe place it looks like from the outside. Secrets move faster than loyalty inside those walls, and not everyone who smiles at Chloe wants her to live long enough to matter.
And breaking one curse was never going to be the end of it. Two more kings, each carrying a piece of the same ancient magic, are waiting to learn what Chloe can do, one whose curse turns him violent, and one whose court hides its rot behind good manners. She needs what they know as much as they need what she can offer. None of it comes free.
Some curses don't just take. They choose who's next, and now they're choosing her.
A dark fantasy romance about survival, obsession, and what it costs to be someone's only hope.

Chapter: The Court's DoubtsChloe's POVThe next morning, I felt the weight of every gaze.I walked through the Shadow Court with Sera at my side, and everywhere we went, people stared. Whispered."Ignore them," Sera said quietly."Hard to ignore when they're so obvious."We reached the great hall, where Theron was meeting with his advisors. I hesitated at the entrance."You belong here," Sera said. "Remember that."I squared my shoulders and walked in.The conversation stopped the moment I appeared.Theron looked up, his expression softening. "Chloe. Come."I crossed to him, acutely aware of the advisors watching my every move."We were just discussing last night's event," Lord Darius said, his tone neutral."Event?" I repeated."The power surge," Marcus clarified. "It happened behind closed doors, but those of us old enough to remember what this bloodline's magic used to feel like noticed anyway. It moved through the whole keep, faint as it was."Heat crept up my neck."The ritual is progressing well," Theron

Chapter: What The Stone RemembersChloe's POVHe came to my room three nights later, and he knocked, which I had not expected."You can come in," I said.He did not, at first. He stood in the doorway with his shoulder against the frame and looked at me for a while."Marcus says the third mark is ready to go," he said. "He says the attunement work has taken us as far as it can. After this it needs the rest of it.""I know what it needs.""I want to hear you say it anyway."I put down the book I had not been reading. "You want to sleep with me.""I want you to decide whether I do." He came in and shut the door. "Those are not the same thing and I would like us to keep them separate for as long as we possibly can.""You have said something like that before.""I will keep saying it." He sat down on the end of the bed, which put him further from me than he needed to be, and I understood that was deliberate. "There is no part of this I am comfortable with. I am asking a woman who has lost everything to give me one more thin

Chapter: Lunar AttunementChloe's POVI gave Theron my answer on the third evening, and I gave it badly, because I had rehearsed it and the rehearsal did not survive contact with his face."I will do it," I said. "With conditions."He had been standing at the window with his back to me. He did not turn around straight away, and when he did, whatever had been on his face was already packed away."Name them.""You do not lie to me. Not to protect me, not to spare me, not because you have decided I have had enough for one week." I kept my voice level with some effort. "If something in your histories says this costs me, you tell me the same day you learn it.""Done.""You did not think about that.""I have been thinking about it for four days." He came away from the window. "What else.""You stop the moment I say stop. Not the moment you agree with my reasons. The moment I say it."Something moved behind his eyes. "That one is harder.""Then it is the one I need most.""Yes," he said. "It is." He was quiet for a m

Chapter: The LibraryChloe's POVI did not give Theron an answer that night, and by morning I had decided I was not going to give him one until I understood what I would be agreeing to.Which is how I ended up in the archive at an hour when only servants and insomniacs are awake, being told no by a man who was too polite to say it."The lower shelves are open to you," Marcus said. "Anything above the second gallery requires the King's word.""He carried me across a border. I assume that counts for something.""It counts for a great deal. It does not count as the King's word." He did not move from where he was standing, which happened to be between me and the stairs. "Lady Chloe. You have been on your feet for a day and a half.""And in that day and a half I have been asked to hand over my body and my blood to a curse nobody will describe to me in plain language." I let that sit. "You keep the histories. I am asking the man who keeps the histories for a history."Something worked behind his face. He was, I

Chapter: Welcome to the Shadow CourtChloe's POVI woke because someone was arguing about me.Not near me. Below me, somewhere down through the floor, two voices going back and forth in the particular rhythm of people who have been having the same argument for some time and are no longer enjoying it.I lay still with my eyes shut and did what I had been taught to do since I was nine years old, which is find out where you are before anyone knows you are awake.First thing I noticed was the warmth all the way through.Linen against my skin, and good linen. A fire somewhere to my left, well banked. The smell of stone and cold iron and something faintly resinous underneath it.And silence where my wolf had been.That last landed the way it had every morning since the council chamber, sharp and sudden. You do not get used to it. You only get better at not making a sound about it.I opened my eyes.Black stone, vaulted, high enough that the ceiling went into shadow. Tall windows with snow light coming through them. A bed I coul

Chapter: What I Came ForTheron's POVI had been looking for her for eleven years.Not her, precisely. I did not know her face or her name or that she would be lying between two rocks in the borderlands with frost in her hair. I knew only what I needed. A Luna with no wolf in her. Empty enough to hold the moon.Eleven years of chasing rumours that led nowhere.And here she was, three hours' walk from my own border, dying quietly and doing a competent job of it.I crouched at the mouth of the boulders, shadow moving with me the way it always did.The guardians had not attacked. That was the first thing that troubled me. They had stood aside as I came through the trees, forty of them, made of smoke and older than my bloodline, and they had *let me pass*, and nothing in three hundred years of Shadowborn history says the moon's guardians make way for the cursed.The second thing that troubled me was the sigil on her wrist.I turned her arm over. Silver, burned deep, still glowing that sick green at the edges. Wol
