I was chosen to die under the blood moon. Dragged from my home, chained before the elders, I laughed when they told me it was an honor. An honor to be offered to a monster. They didn’t care, I was an orphan that nobody would miss."I’d rather die than be part of your accursed ritual."They sent me off to Alpha Lucian Bloodfang for the sacrifice… but when our eyes locked, everything changed.He didn’t kill me.He looked at me as if I were a ghost.“You look just like her,” he whispered.I didn't know her name, but I knew that from that point on, the Alpha began to watch me as if he was waiting for me to disappear. He fed me, cared for me, even marked me.“I love you,” he whispered against my skin.However, on the night that he took me, he cried out with a different woman’s name.RieraI found out the truth too late. “I wasn’t loved for who I am,” I realized afterward. “I was loved because I looked like his dead mate. And when jealousy, magic, and betrayal brought down his kingdom, I was hunted like prey and left for dead in the forest.I should have died.Rather, another ‘Alpha’ saved me.Kael Blackthorn was nothing like Lucian: gentle, patient, heartbreaking kindness. He did not want to possess me. He picked me. And between closing wounds and sidelong looks, my heart has betrayed me once more.Then the war came. Secrets were exposed.Then, I found the truth about who I really was."I am not weak," I stated, and the silver fire flared in my veins. "And I will not be any sacrifice to anyone."Two Alphas. One Destiny. A love born of obsession, and another chosen by the heart. When the blood spills, the ties are broken, and the past refuses to lie dormant, who will I choose when the moon rises again?
