The Alpha and the Moonborn Heiress

I was never supposed to exist.

That's what they whisper when they think I can't hear them.

Selene Blackwood. The Obsidian Heiress. The last Moonborn.

A myth wrapped in human skin.

They watch me like I'm a mistake the world hasn't corrected yet-quiet, controlled, dangerous when provoked. I learned early that silence keeps you alive... and emotions get you killed.

Then there's Kael Hawthorne.

The Alpha heir of Ruby House. Red-eyed wolf. Ruthless reputation. The kind of boy you're warned not to look at twice.

So of course, the Moon Goddess bound us.

A golden Divine Thread I never asked for. One that shouldn't exist. One that doesn't care what I want.

Now every step I take echoes with something I can't undo.

The academy is watching. The Elders are calculating. And Kael... is the only one whose wolf doesn't seem afraid of me.

In fact, it bows.

I don't know what I am to him.

But I know what he is to me.

Danger.

And something worse.

Fate.
