Twenty-two-year-old Serena Vale has always believed she is just a lowly, wolfless maid within the Silver Moon Pack. At the grand Full Moon Matching Ceremony, her cowardly and selfish childhood sweetheart, Landon Crest, publicly rejects her for the sake of power, turning away to take the hand of Vivienne, daughter of a neighboring Alpha.
As the entire crowd mocks Serena's miserable plight, the doors are violently blown open by a fierce gale.
Damien Blackthorne, the most feared and bloodthirsty Lycan King in all of North America, steps onto the dance floor. Everyone bows under his absolute aura, yet he walks straight toward the trembling Serena. Draping his long black trench coat over her shoulders, he sweeps the room with eyes burning with golden light, coldly declaring: "Who dares to reject my Queen?"
However, this is no simple Cinderella fairy tale.
As Damien forces Serena back to his Northern territory, the hidden crescent moon birthmark on her chest begins to burn hot. She is no wolfless outcast—she carries the lost bloodline of the legendary, long-extinct "Moonborn." Sealed within her is the "Moonstone" magic, powerful enough to upend the entire werewolf world.
To make matters worse, Damien's supposedly "dead" brother, Cassian, returns with a conspiracy and an army of shadows, vowing to seize the throne and the power inside Serena. And Damien, this cold-blooded, ruthless Lycan King, had actually endured unimaginable pain twenty years ago just to protect her...
As buried lies are torn apart and the sleeping Silver Wolf soul completely awakens, a no-longer-weak Serena will stand shoulder-to-shoulder with her fiercely protective mate, making the entire werewolf world pay for its past arrogance!
