Elara Caelune was born to moonlight and a destiny written in the stars, her future forged in steel with the heir of the tribe of Valenfyr. But when duty tore her from her childhood friend, who once vowed to protect her and care for her, it left room for devotion to burn into ash and bitter searing resentment. Now, returning to the lands near the wooden forest, Elara finds herself face to face with the boy she once knew, now a man, Bodhiel. Warrior, leader, and sworn enemy.
What was once prophesied to forge greatness in the skies and lands alike has now turned to ash. Thirteen years of hatred now wedged between them, cold as steel. The realm is troubled, the earth is shifting, stars are aligning, and the prophecy that both have tried to forget pushes forward. Once spoken for moonlight and steel, a love to conquer the evil amongst the land has now been whispered to be the ruin that intoxicates the realm. Whether the realm will survive or shatter depends on what survives between them. Love written in the stars, hate bound by oath, and a burning flame that could set the world ablaze.

The weak, invisible Omega died that night, and from her ashes, a warrior was born. I found a new power flowing through my veins, a gift from the Goddess I never understood. I was no longer the pack's weakest link. I was a survivor. A fighter. A mother. But when a deadly plague sweeps through the pack that threw me away-a sickness only I can cure-my past comes hunting for me. The Alpha who broke my soul now needs my help. He doesn't know that I'm his only hope. And he certainly doesn't know that I carry his son. Can I save the people who betrayed me without losing myself? And can I protect my heart from the possessive Alpha who is not just my fated mate, but also the father of my child and the greatest danger I've ever known?
