He's the most feared Alpha alive. She's human. When he discovers she's his fated mate, he does the unthinkable—claims her in front of everyone, then pretends she doesn't exist. But every time he touches another woman, bruises bloom across her skin. She wasn't supposed to fight back. She wasn't supposed to make him feel. And she definitely wasn't supposed to pin him against the wall and make him beg. "You claimed me, Alpha. Now deal with me."

I hated him for being so difficult, but the thought of him being gone made my stomach turn into a block of ice. My brain went numb. My instincts took over. I stepped in front of the door. My hands were shaking so hard I could barely feel them. I grabbed the hem of my dress. I can't believe I'm doing this for a man I wanted to kill an hour ago, I thought. But whatever was pulling me, didn't care about my anger. In one fast, desperate motion, I pulled the dress over my head and let it drop. The cold air hit my bare skin, making my nipples turn into hard, sensitive pebbles instantly. I stood there, completely naked, my heart hammering so loud it echoed in my ears. Oh! Moon Goddess, just end me already. **** She was too weak to stand beside him. And his heart already belonged to another. Azura Moryn knows the rules of the Crescent Moon Pack:power is everything, and without it, you are nothing. Rankless and orphaned, she has survived on the edges by being invisible.

And beyond the pack borders, a brutal Alpha King rises, draining Lunas and hunting power in his obsession with immortality. Old prophecies resurface. Whispers spread of a truth long buried: Only a female Alpha can bring him down. As forbidden magic stirs and betrayal creeps closer than loyalty, an ancient legacy refuses to stay buried any longer.

And some destinies can only be uncovered…

They tell you the towers are safe. They tell you the glass is unbreakable. They lie. ​At nineteen, the "Quiet Year" ends, and the Hum begins. For the residents of the Northern Sector, the full moon isn't a celestial event—it’s a biological trigger. When the Boundary Layer thins, the "Sleep" takes the chosen, dragging them from their beds and dropping them into the Echo, a primal mirror-world where humanity is no longer at the top of the food chain. ​Kieran is a survivor of a summons that should have been his end. He returned from the mist with shadows in his eyes and a terrifying realization: the monsters in the Echo are predictable, but the people in the towers are not. ​To survive the next lunar cycle, Kieran must navigate two battlefields. One is a landscape of violet mist and bone-deep cold. The other is the high-stakes social hierarchy of the mega-blocks, where the wrong look can be as lethal as a predator's strike. ​As the vibration in the walls grows and the "Sleep" looms, Kieran begins to play a game of mirrors. He is crafting a version of himself that the world finally fears—but every mask has a breaking point. ​When the moon is full, who will be left standing: the boy they ignored, or the lie he created to survive?
