Rhea thought the bond she shared with Alpha Kian was unbreakable-a promise forged by the Moon itself. But on the night she expected to be claimed as his mate, Kian shattered her heart with a brutal rejection. Labeled as weak and cast aside, Rhea is left to pick up the pieces of her life and prove to herself, and to the pack, that she is far stronger than anyone ever believed.
Kian, burdened by the weight of his role as Alpha, convinces himself that his decision was necessary to secure the pack's future. Yet, as time passes, he begins to feel the emptiness left by Rhea's absence and the anger of his own wolf clawing at him for his betrayal.
While Rhea rises above the pain, forging a path of independence and newfound strength, Kian is forced to confront the cost of his choices. As threats close in on the pack, Kian realizes too late that the one he cast aside is the only one who can truly stand by his side.
Now, Kian must face the ultimate challenge: grovel for the forgiveness of the mate he rejected and fight to win back the heart he broke. But some wounds run too deep to heal, and Rhea is no longer the girl who once loved him unconditionally.
Can he mend what he destroyed, or will she remain the one who got away?
