Description

In a world where destiny binds wolves beneath the light of the moon, Liora Astraea Fall stands at the precipice of her fate, caught between desperation and the dark legacy of her pack. Having been rai sed in a powerful wolf clan, Liora faces the highly anticipated mating ceremony that has been thrust upon her since childhood. Yet, as she prepares for this transformative event, the haunting memories of a violent past and the presence of the pack’s ruthless alpha, Thorne Ravenshadow, loom over her like a shadowy specter. The ceremony itself turns chaotic as Liora, amidst the swirling traditions and expectations, is thrust into a life-or-death scenario, reawakening her long-buried instincts for survival. Thorne's brutal betrayal pushes her into the abyss, shattering the illusion of her predetermined place within the clan, and leaving her with unanswered questions about her origins and the mysterious vial that once tied her to this world. As Liora escapes the viciousness of the pack, she finds herself in the arms of Callum Fall, an alpha whose allegiance is uncertain. Together, they must navigate treacherous waters—both literally and figuratively—as they uncover the truth about Liora’s past and the powerful connection that may bind them together or tear them apart. Liora must learn to trust Callum and other enigmatic figures, including the playful Kiran and the fierce healer Briar, while battling her own doubt about the significance of her identity. Amidst the intertwining fates of wolves, the tides of the unknown threaten to drown Liora. With her lifeblood seeping into the sands of time, every choice she makes could mean the difference between life and death, freedom and bondage. As secrets unravel and alliances shift like the moon's phases, the truth about loyalty, love, and the will to reclaim her destiny challenges Liora to uncover who she truly is before it’s too late. In this gripping tale of metamorphosis, the line between hunter and hunted fades, revealing the fragility of trust when faced with destiny’s relentless grip.
