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 winced as Mellie dabbed the last of the ointment on my bruised cheek. The cool sensation soothed the ache, but I still felt the phantom sting of Isabel's fist connecting with my face.

"There, all done," Mellie said, stepping back to admire her handiwork. "Take a look."

I turned to the mirror and my eyes widened in surprise. The angry red marks and swelling from my sparring match with Isabel had all but vanished. "Wow, it's like it never happened. Thanks, Mellie."

She grinned. "Don't mention it. So how did the fight with Isabel go, besides the obvious?"

I sighed, running a hand through my tangled hair. "Let's just say she really hates me. I'm not sure what I did to earn her wrath, but she seems determined to make my life miserable."
