Description
Luna never imagined she'd flee her own pack, but betrayal and a dark secret forced her paw. Now, wounded and hunted, she stumbles into Silver Creek territory-and into the arms of an Alpha who awakens more than just her wolf. Callum never expected to find his mate in a half-dead stranger. But as Luna's walls crumble, he glimpses a strength that matches his own-and a past that threatens everything they're building together. As their mate bond deepens, so do the dangers surrounding them. Luna's former pack, led by the ruthless Alpha Marcus, closes in, desperate to reclaim what she took when she fled. Caught between her growing feelings for Callum and the weight of her secrets, Luna must make an impossible choice: trust in her new mate and pack, or run to protect them from the storm that follows her? In a world where love is a liability and trust comes at a deadly price, can Luna and Callum's bond survive the ultimate test? ................................... Luna's scream pierced the night, jolting me awake. I found her huddled in the corner, her eyes wild with fear and glowing an unnatural silver. "Luna?" I approached cautiously. "What's wrong?" "Stay back!" she snarled, her voice distorted. "I can't... I can't control it, Callum." Suddenly, she convulsed, and a burst of energy exploded from her, shattering every window in the room. As the glass rained down, I saw Marcus materialize in the doorway, his eyes gleaming with triumph. "It's time, Luna," he purred. "You can't run from your destiny forever." I moved to stand between them, my wolf rising to the surface. "You'll have to go through me first." Marcus's laugh sent chills down my spine. "Oh, I'm counting on it, Alpha."
