Beneath the Alpha's Moon

Teresa is a timid human whose life has been a series of unfortunate events—until she meets Lucian Blackwood, a very rich and handsome man who awakens a deep, unexplainable connection within her. But Lucian, an alpha werewolf with a haunting past, is repelled by Teresa’s perceived weakness, blaming weakness for the tragedy that shaped his life. Unable to accept her as his mate, he rejects and humiliates her, leaving Teresa shattered. Just as she’s picking up the pieces, Adrian Daegon, an ancient vampire with his own dark allure, steps into her life, determined to win her heart. Now, Lucian is torn with regret, desperate to reclaim the woman he cast aside. But to do so, he must face a powerful vampire and confront his own fears—while somehow convincing Teresa to forgive his betrayal and reignite their lost bond. Can love and redemption overcome the scars of rejection, or has Lucian's cruel mistake cost him his mate forever? Torn between two powerful forces, Teresa must decide where her true destiny lies—in the fierce grip of the wolf who scorned her or the dark embrace of the vampire who vows to adore her.

A Lingering Spark

LUCIAN'S P.O.V.

The house was warm as we stepped inside, Teresa's fingers brushed mine as she walked beside me, making me feel stronger in a way I couldn't explain.

"I'm going to take a bath," she said softly, her voice like a soothing balm. "I need to soak for a while. My whole body feels sore."

I swallowed hard, imagining her submerged in warm water, steam curling around her. The thought alone was enough to ignite a fire in my chest. "Say it, Lucian," Ares teased in my head. "Suggest she use your bathtub. It's bigger."

But I didn't. Instead, I bit back the words, knowing I couldn't risk making her uncomfortable. Not now. "That sounds like a good idea," I managed, keeping my voice neutral. "I should clean up too."

Her laughter was soft, like the chime of a bell. "I'd say that's an understatement. You're practically drenched in Maverick's blood."
