The Alpha Who Rejected His King

The Story

Lucien Moonvale returns from the Forbidden Forest after awakening the Silver Moon Sovereign, a power sealed at birth by the Council. Once despised for lacking wolf blood, he now confronts Caine Ashbourne, the Alpha who publicly rejected him and bound to his cousin Varen. Lucien intends to shatter the throne and expose a century of lies, uncovering that Caine acted under a deadly Blood Oath. The Council releases Asterion, Lucien’s imprisoned father, to consume him. In a desperate act, Caine severs the oath with a sword through his shoulder, surrendering his Alpha power. With no fate line or chain remaining, Caine stands before Lucien as a man who chose him freely. Lucien faces the decision between the Alpha fate originally granted to him and the one who gave up everything to choose without coercion.
