The ninth bonding ceremony between me and the Alpha King, Thorne Ravencrest, is finally here. Yet once again, I failed to become his Luna Queen. Not because he broke his promise, but because I'm not qualified enough. The Elders made it crystal clear that every Luna Queen recognized by the Moon Goddess throughout history must cultivate 365 Moonlight Flowers using their own blood essence. But every year on the eve of the ceremony, no matter how careful I am, there's always one flower missing. This year, I nearly drained myself completely and barely managed to grow the right number. Ecstatic, I go to find Thorne, wanting to surprise him. Through the partially open door of the throne hall, I hear his Beta say to him, "Alpha King, Sera's been waiting for you for eight years now. Are you ever going to bond with her?" Thorne shakes his head. "I promised Willow we can't bond this year either." His Beta hesitates. "What if Sera actually manages to grow enough Moonlight Flowers?" Thorne goes silent for a moment, then claps his hands. A shadow wolf appears and melts into the darkness. Before long, a shadow wolf returns with a Moonlight Flower clamped in its jaws. He tears the flower into shreds and lets out a sigh. "Sera has plenty of blood. Forget one year. She could keep cultivating for another ten years and still be fine. "But Willow's been poisoned with wolfsbane. I'm all she has left, and she wants me by her side in her final days. "I can't bear to refuse Willow, which means Sera will just have to wait a bit longer." I bite my lip hard, barely able to believe what I'm hearing. So the Moonlight Flowers that kept mysteriously disappearing were all destroyed by him. Becoming Luna Queen has been my dream since childhood. But if he never intended to bond with me at all, then it's time I leave him.

The Space Station was their home. Now, it's their coffin... and the world's most expensive weapon. The International Space Station (ISS), a decades-long monument to human collaboration, has been given a death sentence. In just 60 days, it will be plunged into the deepest, loneliest part of the Pacific Ocean: Point Nemo. Aboard the aging station, Dr. Elara Vance and her crew desperately need 90 more days to complete their life-saving project—a revolutionary cure for the global water crisis. But their pleas are dismissed by the ruthless CEO, Director Cyrus Thorne. Elara discovers the terrifying truth: Thorne isn't just retiring the station; he's weaponizing it. The forced crash is a calculated act of sabotage, set at a catastrophically steep angle to guarantee the total destruction of all evidence, including their project and their crew. Worse, the crash is targeting an impossible, surgically precise coordinate at Point Nemo—the cover-up for a dark, unknown purpose. Faced with this betrayal, Elara and her crew initiate a mutiny, launching the Ghost Orbit protocol to hijack the station and boost its altitude. Thorne immediately retaliates, seizing control from Earth and accelerating the crash sequence to ensure the astronauts die on schedule. In a terrifying, high-stakes battle, the crew fights the forces of Earth while their habitat breaks apart. They fail to save the station, but in a final, harrowing sacrifice, they jettison a heavily reinforced escape pod, surviving the catastrophic plunge. Now stranded, silent, and presumed dead in the remotest corner of the world, these "ghosts" have only one mission left: expose Thorne’s conspiracy and deliver the truth before the secret of Point Nemo is buried forever.

A nona cerimônia de vínculo entre mim e o Rei Alfa, Thorne Ravencrest, finalmente chegou. Ainda assim, mais uma vez, falhei em me tornar sua Rainha Luna. Não porque ele tivesse quebrado sua promessa… mas porque eu não era qualificada o suficiente. Os anciãos deixaram isso absolutamente claro: toda Rainha Luna reconhecida pela Deusa da Lua ao longo da história deve cultivar 365 Flores do Luar usando sua própria essência de sangue. Mas todos os anos, na véspera da cerimônia, por mais cuidadosa que eu fosse, sempre faltava uma flor. Este ano, quase me esgotei completamente e, por pouco, consegui cultivar a quantidade exata. Eufórica, fui procurar Thorne, querendo fazer uma surpresa. Pela porta entreaberta do salão do trono, ouvi seu Beta dizer: — Rei Alfa, Sera está esperando por você há oito anos. Você realmente nunca vai se vincular a ela? Thorne balançou a cabeça. — Eu prometi à Willow que este ano também não podemos nos vincular. Seu Beta hesitou. — E se Sera realmente conseguir cultivar flores suficientes? Thorne ficou em silêncio por um momento, então bateu palmas. Um lobo das sombras apareceu e se fundiu à escuridão. Pouco depois, o lobo retornou com uma Flor do Luar presa entre os dentes. Thorne a rasgou em pedaços e soltou um suspiro. — Sera tem sangue de sobra. Esqueça um ano. Ela poderia continuar cultivando por mais dez anos e ainda ficaria bem. — Mas Willow foi envenenada com acônito. Eu sou tudo o que resta para ela… e ela quer que eu fique ao seu lado em seus últimos dias. — Eu não consigo recusar Willow. Isso significa que Sera terá que esperar um pouco mais. Mordi o lábio com força, mal conseguindo acreditar no que estava ouvindo. Então… as Flores do Luar que desapareciam misteriosamente todos os anos… eram todas destruídas por ele. Ser uma Rainha Luna sempre foi meu sonho desde criança. Mas, se ele nunca teve a intenção de se vincular a mim… Então era hora de eu deixá-lo.

“Magiging asawa mo ako, Vespera. Hindi dahil gusto ko—kundi dahil wala kang takas.” Si Thorne Valtor, ang malamig at walang-awang CEO ng Valtor Enterprises, pinilit ng kanyang lolo na magpakasal upang iligtas ang pamilya at ang kompanya mula sa eskandalo.

Si Vespera naman, na puno ng galit, ay nahihirapang pigilan ang init na muling sumisiklab sa pagitan nila. Hanggang saan ang kaya niyang itago ang kanyang paghihiganti? At hanggang kailan kaya niyang itanggi na ang lalaking sinisira niya ang buhay ay siya ring lalaking hinahanap ng kanyang puso? Makakatakas ba sila sa trap na ito… o susunugin sila ng apoy na sinimulan nila pareho?
