In the captivating world of Aether's Claim, May Bard, a young werewolf, is thrust into a whirlwind of unexpected twists and heart-wrenching choices. As she stands on the precipice of receiving an award for her Warrior training, May's life takes an unforeseen turn when she captures the attention of Ares, the future Alpha of her pack. Their connection is instantaneous, and they soon discover that they are mates, destined to be bound by the Moon's decree. However, their happiness is shattered when Alpha Warren, Ares' father, intervenes and reveals that Ares is betrothed to another Alpha's daughter as a means to prevent a devastating war.

Devastated by this revelation, May finds solace and unexpected comfort in the enigmatic Alpha Aether, who hails from a visiting pack. Aether awakens a passionate connection within May, leaving her torn between her true but seemingly unattainable mate, Ares, and the charismatic allure of Aether. Faced with an impossible choice, May's heart is torn between the path her wolf instinctively longs for and the desires of her heart.

As May navigates the complexities of her emotions, she becomes entangled in a web of secrets and conflicting loyalties. Forbidden encounters and hidden revelations further complicate her journey, pushing her towards a life-altering decision that could change everything. 

May's Enigma

I sighed heavily, rubbing my tired eyes as Aether packed my luggage into the back of his car. It was shiny, luxurious, it turned the heads of the few wolves who were walking around the pack at this hour. They turned their noses up, trying to scent my emotions, see what I was feeling, what I was doing. I'm sure when I left, they would gather around Alpha Warren who'd make a speech about my departure, my mother would stay silent as he spouted his lies and tried to paint me as one who abandoned their pack, but the wolves would not believe him. They knew of Ares' disservice to me, they knew how I was wronged and what had been happening to me, even if none of them reached out and tried to console me, and they too were loyal to the pack, I knew at least that. 


"You didn't pack much." Aether commented, grumbling a bit.
