Rejected Alpha, Risen King

Adrian, the Silver‑Moon Alpha, spent twenty years in seclusion. After awakening under the Blood Moon, he descends to Raven’s Port to honor his betrothal, only to be humiliated by Scarlett. He demonstrates his power in Raven’s Port and is recruited as a consultant by the Supernatural Affairs Bureau. After moving into the manor, he learns from the Lunar‑Crown Mirror that he is the reincarnated vessel of Valerius, the Speaker of the Blood Moon Council. The Blood Moon Council creates a Lily clone intended to detonate and destroy the city. Instead, the replica sacrifices itself to protect the city and reveals Lily’s whereabouts. Adrian awakens demigod power, at the cost of having only three years left to live. He then flies to Europe with Scarlett and the others to rescue Lily and confront Valerius head‑on.
