The night I was supposed to become Luna of Bloodmoon Pack, my fated mate rejected me in front of everyone. Caden Ahearn looked me in the eyes and said the words that ripped our bond apart. His brother accused me of attacking him. His mother smiled while I vomited on the ceremony platform. And the man I loved—the man who'd held my hands until now—walked away like I was nothing. I was banished at dawn. No pack. No family. No future. I ended up bleeding in the rain on enemy territory, half-dead from rejection sickness, waiting for rogues to finish what Caden started. That's when he found me. Damian Vargasin. The Savage Alpha. The most dangerous wolf in the region. He carried me home like I weighed nothing, protected me like I mattered, looked at me like I'm meant to him. He said there was no price for his help. No expectations. No debt. But his wolf recognized something in mine. And the way he touches me—gentle, careful, like I'm precious. Now Caden wants me back. His mother wants me dead. And the truth about who really destroyed my life is about to explode. I'm carrying secrets. I'm carrying power I don't understand. They say the Moon Goddess doesn't make mistakes. But if she meant for me to end up here—in the arms of my enemy, hunted by my past, falling for a man who could destroy me—what does that say about her plan? What does that say about me?

I am a vampire, and that is the truth. But the modern meaning of the word vampire, the stories that have been told about creatures such as I, are not precisely true.

Wolves do like me, though, as do most predators, and I can jump so high that one might imagine I can fly. As to blood--ah, blood, the whole subject fascinates me. I do like that as well, warm and dripping, when I am thirsty. And I am often thirsty.
