She was rejected in front of the pack. Cast aside by the Alpha who once claimed her as his Luna. When she disappears, everyone believes her story is finished. Years later, she returns. She is quieter now. Harder. Carrying the weight of survival—and a secret that changed everything. The pack expects anger. The Alpha expects forgiveness. What they don’t expect is the truth she brings back with her. But rejection leaves scars that don’t fade. Some wounds don’t heal. And some losses reshape reality itself. As old bonds tighten and buried memories resurface, the line between strength and survival begins to blur. What she clings to may be the only thing keeping her alive—or the very thing slowly destroying her.
