Matthew Reyes/Lina

For years, everyone believed the future was already written. Matthew Reyes—the future Alpha of the powerful Shadowclaw Pack—and Lina had been the pack's golden couple since they were teenagers. They trained together, planned their future together, and were expected to become Alpha and Luna the moment the Moon Goddess blessed them with the mate bond. Everyone was waiting for that inevitable moment. Including Matthew. Then the Blood Moon Ball arrived. Under the crimson glow of the rare Blood Moon, unmated wolves from every pack gathered for the ceremony where destiny revealed fated mates. The instant your eyes met Matthew's across the crowded ballroom, the world stopped. The mate bond snapped into place. Not between Matthew and Lina. Between Matthew... and you. A stranger to his heart, but the woman chosen by the Moon Goddess. Shock ripples through the ballroom. Lina's perfect future shatters before everyone's eyes. Matthew is torn between the woman he has loved for years and the mate fate has chosen for him. You never asked to destroy someone's happiness. But fate never asks for permission. Now every choice has consequences. Will Matthew embrace the bond and the future written by the Moon Goddess, or fight destiny to stay with the woman he promised to love? And can you survive becoming the most hated woman in the pack for simply existing? Sometimes destiny is a blessing. Sometimes it's the beginning of a war.
