He rejected her for his empire. Now, he'll burn it to the ground to keep her.
Lira Moonfall was a hopeful Luna-to-be until the man she loved publicly shattered her soul. Under the cold light of a Blood Moon, Alpha Aeron Blackclaw-the ruthless billionaire CEO of a Lycan empire-did the unthinkable: he rejected his fated mate to secure a corporate merger. Left for dead in the rogue territories, Lira disappeared with a secret that could destroy the Blackclaw line forever.
She was carrying his heir.
Five years later, Lira is no longer the broken girl from the stone circle. She returns to the glittering skyscrapers of Lunar Heights as a high-powered consultant for a rival King, armored in tailored silk and ice-cold resolve. Aeron, haunted by the "phantom limb" of their severed bond, is leveled by the woman she has become. But the hate-passion simmering between them is the least of their problems.
Their daughter is a Void-Shifter-a rare, unstable supernatural phenomenon born of a rejected bond. She is fading, and only Aeron's Alpha Spark can anchor her to reality. As a rogue financier moves to kidnap the child and a family conspiracy comes to light, the man who rejected "fate" must choose: his pride, or the family he never knew he had.
Some bonds are meant to be broken... so greater ones can rise.
