Chains of Eternity – Synopsis When the Spell descended, Kael was nothing but a street thief—hungry, nameless, and forgotten. But fate brands even the lowest, and he awakens in a world of endless night, where monsters roam the crimson wastes and survival is measured in breaths. Cursed with a living shadow bound by chains, Kael discovers a terrible truth: every kill feeds the void within him, granting strength at the cost of his humanity. As he claws his way through horrors, he learns he is not alone. Other Chosen walk the darkness—rivals, allies, betrayers—each wielding powers as strange and dangerous as his own. Together and apart, they will uncover the secret of the Spell, the price of survival, and the terrible destiny awaiting those who endure. But the longer Kael fights, the more he wonders: does he wield the shadow… or does the shadow wield him? In a realm where hope is a myth and dawn is just a rumor, Kael must decide—become prey, or embrace the hunger and rise as something far worse.

Clara Veyron’s life falls apart in a single night, her fiancé’s betrayal, her best friend’s lies, and a storm that leaves her wandering the streets alone. But heartbreak is nothing compared to what she finds next: a wounded stranger with silver eyes, a man whose very presence pulls her into a world she was never meant to see. Kael Arden is no ordinary man. He is Alpha of the Shadowclaw Pack, bound by a curse that has destroyed every human woman who dared to love him. He swore never to claim a mate again, or to risk another innocent life. Until Clara’s touch heals what should have been fatal, and awakens a bond that should not exist. Now Clara is hunted by rivals who see her as the key to Kael’s downfall, and despised by wolves who call her unworthy of their Alpha. Torn between her humanity and the fierce call of the wolf bond, she must choose: walk away from the man who could ruin her career and life, or fight beside him against enemies who would see them both destroyed. But Kael has only one choice left. And this time, fate has given him something to lose.

Kael closed the distance between us then, his hand cupping my face with a tenderness that broke through his fury. “I didn’t tell you because I couldn’t bear the thought of losing you before you even knew what you carried. But you’re right, you deserved the truth. And now that you have it, I swear this. They will not take you, or our child. I’ll burn their Council halls to ash before I let that happen.” Aria Vale thought she could escape. Hidden in a quiet human town, she carries the one secret that could shatter the balance of every pack, the unborn heir of Alpha Kael Donovan. Kael was more than a man. He was the Donovan Alpha, ruthless, unyielding, feared by all who stood against him. To love him was dangerous. To bear his child in secret was treason. But when the bond burned too hot, when his mark lingered on her skin and his voice haunted her dreams, Aria ran. Not because she didn’t love him, but because she feared surrendering her life, her freedom, her heart, to the Alpha who could break her. But Kael Donovan does not lose what is his. To him, her disappearance is betrayal. To the pack, it is unthinkable. To rivals, it is a chance to strike. For Aria, it is survival, until his shadow finds her again. Secrets Beneath the Moon is a story of hidden love and dangerous choices, of a wolf torn between freedom and destiny, and an Alpha who will stop at nothing to claim both the woman and the heir she carries beneath the moonlight.
