And so she stood, with her back to the wind and hair whipping into her weather roughed face. Her eyes shifted from purple to gold, to black. and back again. She surveyed the land below her. It was hers. All of it belonged to the ThunderMoon pack. Her home. Her pack. Everything that she loved, stood for and sought to protect. Everything her parents had died to protect her and her twin brother. At this moment, between war and peace, was the complete stillness of agony. A stillness that was wrought with beauty as the sun rose on this new time of peace; and an agony that was full of pain for the lives lost to purchase this freedom. The sky was painted in the bathing sunlight of the new day, with a gentle orange, a dusting of speckled pink, streaked with red. The wind was a biting harshness, that left the skin raw; but it was the kind of hurt that left the body feeling refreshed and clean again. This was a new start for her. A chance of freedom. A chance of peace.

Adira, alpha female, has lost her mate and is left to rebuild her pack after winning a war. Upon capturing a trio of rogues that stumble across her land will Adira find herself caught up in more than just a challenge for her Alpha title, but also the possibility of love again?
After her pack was killed by Rogues, Laura becomes a part of the Blue Moon Pack when the Alpha takes her in. When her Guardian Bond to the Alpha's daughter forces her to move with Mira to the territory of her Mate, Laura finds its difficult to keep her secret. As a rare White Wolf, she is not only a danger to herself but to those around her, as legend claims her death will grant immortality. To top things off, she meets her Mate but is rejected by him when he believes she cannot shift.
When her secret comes out he revokes his rejection, but will she still want to accept him as her Mate?
Quick Peek:
"My duty is to Mira and no one else. You made it clear that I would never become a part of your pack. I am not your mate and I am not their Luna. I will not help you rule a pack who has spent weeks mocking me and threatening to harm my Protected as a way to get a rise out of me. Do you expect me to believe their sudden desire for me to be their Luna? Am I supposed to trust their sudden respect? Your sudden devotion to me?"
"Please. You're my Mate, their Luna," he pleaded.
"Like you said, I'm sure you can find a more suitable Luna for your pack. After all, why accept me when neither you nor your people want me?" I said, throwing his words back at him.
