Blurb; My heart raced as I realized what was about to happen. I had suspected it, the prolong stares, the unnecessary touching, and the way the mark on my collarbone burned hotter whenever he looked at me. I don’t know what to do, my wolf stirs with a hunger I don’t want to satisfy. The pull between us was now becoming impossible to ignore, the closer I got to him the more I feel like I’m not in control of who I am. “We are going to have to talk about this you know?” Dax muttered as he leaned in close, his hands steady on my waist. They say the bond can only be fully solidified through completing the Claim under the light of the full moon….intimately. “You're mine, Sapphire. I want to hold you down, ignore every plea that comes out of your mouth till you forget how to speak,” He whispered in my ear and I almost believed him, but is this him or the bond talking? ***************** In a world where werewolves rule from the shadows, controlling human leaders like silent puppeteers, the truth remains hidden from the mundane world. Humans only sense that something powerful lurks behind their governments—but they never see it. Long ago, one of the most powerful Alpha Kings defied the sacred order. When the packs demanded his human mate be sacrificed to the Moon Goddess, he chose love over loyalty. For his betrayal, he was banished, forced to live cut off from the werewolf world, pretending it never existed. From that forbidden union, a child was born. A girl marked by the Moon Goddess herself. According to an ancient prophecy: “When the world falls into imbalance, the marked wolf—from them but not of them—will rise.” Determined to protect her, her parents raise her as a normal human, hiding her true nature. But destiny cannot be hidden forever. One fateful night, she crosses into forbidden territory—and catches the attention of the youngest and most dangerous Alpha of the Moon Pack. He doesn’t just see a human. He sees power. A mystery. A threat. And possibly… his mate. As secrets unravel and the truth about her bloodline emerges, she is forced into a world that once rejected her existence. Now, the packs are watching. The Moon Goddess is waiting. And the girl who was never meant to belong may be the one to change everything.
