In the northern forests, wolves do not hunt with teeth alone.
They listen.
When Lyra saves a wounded wolf beneath a dying moon, she believes she's offered mercy. Instead, she makes a mistake no human is warned about-she speaks her name aloud. Wolves claim power through true names. And the one who heard hers is no ordinary beast.
Kael Varyn is the cursed Alpha of Blackridge, bound by pack law and a hunger he refuses to surrender to. His curse tightens with the moon. His control is already fraying. And now Lyra's voice has tied itself to him in ways neither of them fully understand.
The bond between them is not forged through touch, but through words-through breath-close warnings, deliberate restraint, and the dangerous pull of a name spoken only once.
If Kael claims Lyra fully, she becomes his by ancient magic.
If he doesn't, the curse may destroy them both.
In a fortress built to contain a monster, desire becomes a negotiation, and the moon listens to everything they say.
