My 19th birthday was supposed to be perfect. Instead, it became the day my world fell apart. Picture this: Me, walking in on my boyfriend Darian tangled up with Scarlet, my so-called best friend. Talk about a birthday surprise, right? Heartbroken and furious, I ran into the woods, desperate to escape. That's when things got really strange. It was time for my werewolf transformation, but something went terribly wrong. Pain ripped through me as I got stuck halfway between human and wolf. There I was, alone and scared, thinking this was how I'd die. But then he showed up. A massive gray wolf with eyes that seemed to look right into my soul. I couldn't believe it. Niko Kaine Silverbane, the Alpha King in the flesh. Kaine helped me complete my shift, but that was just the beginning. Something sparked between us, a connection I couldn't explain. It was electric, intense, and a little bit terrifying. Next thing I know, I'm trying to save my ex friend, enrolled at Banes Academy, surrounded by other young werewolves. That's where I learned the truth: Kaine and I are destined mates. Me, the orphan girl, fated to be with the most powerful Alpha in the country. It sounds like a fairy tale, right? Wrong. Turns out, being the Alpha King's mate comes with a target on your back. Enemies are everywhere, including faces I once trusted. And Kaine? He's got secrets darker than a moonless night. Now I'm racing against time to master my newfound powers and stand beside Kaine against the forces trying to tear us apart. But as the danger grows, so do my feelings for him. Will I find the strength to become the Alpha Luna I'm meant to be? Or will the darkness consume us both?

I felt the weight of every eye in the clearing upon me as they darted between Scarlet and me. The tension hung thick in the air, like the ghostly calm before a storm.

Kaine's deep voice cut through the silence. "It's time to sentence Scarlet."

My heart clenched. Suddenly, a plaintive whine echoed in my mind—Elara, Scarlet's inner wolf, crying out in fear and desperation.

Kaine's silver eyes flickered to me, a knowing look crossing his face. "I'll be careful with the procedure," he assured, his tone softer than usual.

Scarlet's face crumpled as tears began to fall. "Please," she whimpered, her usual confidence shattered.

"Shift into your wolf form," Kaine commanded, his voice leaving no room for argument.

Scarlet's body shimmered and morphed. Where she once stood, a wolf now lay—its coat a pale gold, almost white. But something was wrong. The wolf's legs trembled, barely able to support its weight. Its head hung low, ears drooping.
