Vespera Solari was the Wolf-less Luna, a shame to her bloodline and a puppet for her husband, Alpha Julian. After years of infertility and a soul-crushing betrayal by her own sister, Vespera flees into the frozen wilderness. She expects to die in the cold; instead, she runs into the arms of the Alpha King, Malachi Frost. One night of primal heat awakens her dormant wolf and marks her with a child that shouldn't exist. Now, rejected by the King and hunted by her husband, Vespera is a prisoner in a gilded cage. But the wolves are howling for a new Queen, and Vespera is no longer the weak girl they once broke. She is the mother of the true heir, and she is coming for the throne.
