Araktine's War has been over for years, but the shapeshifting beings of Lunipuland clearly remember it's horrors. And some are still affected by it. Injuries have healed, but little else. Tensions between light-and dark-aligned are higher than the moons. The legendary sky dragons have only recently escaped their imprisonment.
Alvara still hasn't found her sister or her mother after their escape. Her father never explained what she had a feeling he knew, and her only friend was being drawn further and further into madness by the loss of her brother before disappearing. Being afflicted with a dark curse that promises danger to her kind is the last straw before she leaves to do whatever she can to find her family.
But the world is a dangerous place when you're being stalked by a dark overlord who everyone believes is dead. The Phantom is the name bestowed on the murderer of countless Lunipians. And Araktine is clever enough to keep everyone believing it.
Soon after Alvara finds temporary shelter form Araktine, a strange group is assembled: a mysterious tiger, a loveable saber-tooth cat, an understandably jumpy raven, and a fox with as many secrets as Alvara herself. And they have to trust each other to find the truth about Araktine and the war, and defeat him before it's too late.

Rejecting the Alpha
I glared up at him my eyes narrowed, "Excuse me?" I was beyond livid by the words that just came out of his mouth. My glare didn't falter when Parker towered over me, clenching his jaw while trapping me against his desk. "You heard me." Parker's voice was low and intimidating that it made me feel so small. But I wasn't going to let him get to me. Standing up taller, I snapped, "I will not be your personal toy, available for you to do just as you please! I do not want to be held captive against my will, and not even have a say in anything. To be honest, I don't even want a mate." "You will do everything and anything I say, do you hear me?" Parker growled grabbing my chin and forcing me to look at him. Without even thinking I said the first thing that came to my head but meant every word. "I, Jasmine Davis, reject you Alpha Parker Mason, as my mate." * Jasmine Davis is the daughter of the Beta of the Moonlit Waters Pack.
