I was supposed to be his mate. His Luna. The woman he vowed to cherish. But under the silver glow of the full moon, **Alpha Cassian Blackwood rejected me.** In front of the entire pack, he shattered our bond like I was nothing. No explanation. No hesitation. Just a cold, brutal rejection that sent searing pain through my soul. I ran. What else could I do? But fate wasn’t done with me. Captured by rogues, I thought my life was over—until **Ronan Vale, their dangerously handsome Alpha, offered me a deal.** A contract marriage. Protection in exchange for my loyalty. A union that would make me untouchable. I should have refused. Instead, I let myself fall into the arms of a man who sees me not as weak, but as powerful. And he’s not the only one. **Kai, the brooding strategist with haunted eyes, and Luca, the charming beta with a deadly smile, both make it clear—Cassian may have rejected me, but I will never be unwanted again.** But now Cassian wants me back. **And he’s willing to start a war to claim me.** I should hate him. I should want revenge. But when I look into his stormy silver eyes, I feel the bond still there, fraying but unbroken. Now, the men around me are asking me to choose. **My past, or my future. My fate, or my freedom.** But no one has realized the truth yet. *I’m not the weak, rejected mate they thought I was.* And I will never be powerless again.
