She came to prove their world was real... She didn't expect to be crowned its Queen. When desperate artifact researcher Serena Rael crashes the sacred mating ritual of the Trueblood Alpha King, Kaelen Syrus, she shatters more than tradition - she triggers an ancient Moonbond that cannot be broken. Now bound to a cold, powerful king who despises humans, Serena is obligated to bear his pups in order to survive a realm ruled by wolves, secrets, and deadly magic. But her presence has awakened something far older than fate: a prophecy, a mark, a war and a journey to other realms. He lost his mate to a human. She never wanted to belong to anyone. Fate doesn't care. But as forbidden truths rise and betrayal cuts deep, Serena must choose: The love that claimed her... or the life and freedom she once fought for.
In a realm hidden far beyond mortal sight, where age means nothing and they remain ever young, the night still echoes with sorrow and the howls of bitter loss.
Selvayra had lost its Luna....Their queen , to a mistake that should have never been possible.
A human had crossed into their sacred realm.
Kaelen Syrus fell to his knees, shattered by grief. His heart, once a pillar of strength, cracked under the weight of her blood on his hands.
"She's gone..." he choked.
Beside him, his brother-Riven whispered, "It's going to be alright." But even his voice sounded hollow as he stared at the bloodied body of the Luna, lifeless beneath the moonlight.
********
(50 Years Later)
The skies darkened ,but this time, not from grief.
It was a war.
Above the distant realm of Wisteria, witches raised their staffs in defense, hurling spells into the storm. None landed nor mattered. The air turned cold, thick with a looming evil.
A figure hovered high in the storm, his cloak thrashing in the wind. Shadows curled at his feet.
His voice was low, poisonous.
"Wisteria will crumble." He muttered spells.
With a flick of his hand, darkness poured from the skies. Half the realm was cursed in a blink and he vanished.
But his true destination was elsewhere.
Selvayra.
He stood at its edge now, gazing upon the peaceful land.
They didn't sense the storm at their doorstep.
He walked through the palace with quiet pride, each step steady and unbothered. There was no rush, no fear....just the calm confidence of someone who had finally tasted power. His eyes held a strange stillness, calm... but deadly.
He entered the royal chambers.
"Riven!" Kaelen's face lit up, joy breaking through years of sorrow. "Where have you been? I've searched everywhere for you."
Riven ignores him and looks at a portrait of the late Luna at the far corner of Kaelen's chambers.
Confusion slipped into Kaelen's eyes. "Is there a problem?
Riven turns and stares at him, eyes burning with red embers.
"She's been dead for fifty years," he sneered. "Why not join her?"
Without warning, he lunged.
Kaelen barely dodged, stumbling back. "Riven?! What are you doing?!"
But this wasn't his brother anymore.
The air around Riven twisted with corrupted power. His voice deepened. His magic bled chaos.
Guards stormed in, shifting into their wolves, but they fell like leaves. One wave of Riven's hand, and their life drained away, bodies crumpling in silence.
"I've always hated you," Riven hissed. "From the moment you were born, my joy died. You were the golden child. I was the shadow."
Kaelen's chest tightened. "No... Mother loved you. Father did too-"
"They gave you the throne!" Riven roared. "I was born first! That crown was mine. And I'll take it, even if I have to drown this palace in blood."
Magic surged through him as he struck again.
Kaelen fought back, dodging fire-laced spells and wild blasts that shattered the chamber. But he wasn't defenseless.
He grabbed the ancient staff passed down through their bloodline-the one meant only for the true Alpha King.
He slammed it into the ground.
Light exploded.
The wind howled.
The walls trembled as the power of the ancestors awakened.
A deep rumble echoed.
Then ,the floor split open.
A portal tore through the ground beneath Riven, a swirling storm of black and gold. It roared loudly, pulling at him with brutal force.
"No!" Riven screamed, claws scraping stone. "You can't do this! I'll return...I'll kill you! I'll rule them all!"
Kaelen stepped forward, face grim.
"By the bloodline of Selvayra," he declared, "I cast you into Vornyx-the realm of shadow and silence."
Blinding magic wrapped around Riven, binding him like chains. With a final scream, he was yanked into the void. The portal snapped shut.
*******
(Vornyx; the outlands)
In the cursed silence of the Outlands, Riven howled into the emptiness. No one heard. No one answered.
But deep inside, he knew one thing:
He hadn't been defeated.
He had planted his seed in Selvayra.
He hadn't gone to Wisteria just for power.
He had gone... for the Moonmark.
