In a world where werewolves live in secret, bound by ancient laws and an unseen council, Elysia Thorn is born different. Marked by the Lunar Scar, a silver glyph that burns under the full moon, she is neither fully human nor truly a werewolf. The prophecy calls her a Lunara, a being foretold to either unite or destroy the supernatural world. When Kaine Valen, an exiled alpha with a dark past, discovers Elysia, he recognizes her as the key to a war brewing in the shadows. Torn between his duty to his broken pack and the burning desire that binds him to Elysia, Kaine must decide-will he claim her, or will he destroy her before she becomes a weapon against them all? As betrayals unfold, ancient curses unravel, and a forgotten enemy rises from the ashes, Elysia must navigate a dangerous path where love could be her greatest power-or her ultimate downfall.
In a world where the supernatural lurks just beneath the surface of human civilization, ancient forces govern the balance between predator and prey. The werewolves, bound by sacred laws and ruled by the enigmatic Council of Elders, remain hidden from mortal eyes. But not all abide by the old ways.
Elysia Thorn has always been different. Raised as a human, she never knew why the Lunar Scar-a silver glyph embedded in her wrist since birth-marked her as an anomaly among both humans and wolves. Neither fully human nor entirely werewolf, she exists in the fragile space between two worlds, a being of unknown origin. But under the full moon's gaze, her dormant power awakens, and with it, a prophecy buried in blood and betrayal.
When she is hunted by a vicious pack of rogue wolves, Elysia's only hope for survival lies in Kaine Valen, an exiled alpha with a reputation as deadly as his past. Once a powerful leader, Kaine was betrayed by his own kind and cast out to wander the fringes of the supernatural world. Hardened by loss and fueled by vengeance, he wants nothing to do with destiny, prophecy, or the woman fate has thrust into his path.
Yet something about Elysia calls to him-an irresistible force that defies logic and threatens to unravel the walls he has built around his heart. She is forbidden, a danger to the very existence of werewolves, and yet Kaine cannot ignore the undeniable bond forming between them.
As dark forces stir and ancient enemies rise, Elysia and Kaine find themselves caught in a deadly game of power and betrayal. The truth behind Elysia's existence could change everything-or destroy them both.
For in the end, the moon never gives without taking in return.
