Under the second moon

Dfw_nuella Werewolf

“On the night Aria Vale was born human, the sky broke. A second moon - small, blue, and silent - appeared beside the first. No wolf had ever seen it before. The elders called it a curse. That same night, something came down from the mountain and bit seven human babies in the valley. Six died instantly. One lived. Aria Vale lived with a blue crescent scar on the back of her neck that glowed whenever the second moon hid. For eighteen years she thought she was normal. Human. Weak. Unwanted. She was wrong. On her eighteenth birthday, the second moon returns after eighteen years of silence. And the same creature that bit her as a baby comes back to finish what it started. It bites her again. In the same place. This time, she doesn't cry. She doesn't bleed. Her eyes turn pure glowing blue, and when she whispers "Stop" - the monster, an Alpha larger than any wolf she has ever seen, stops. And kneels. Alpha Kael Blackthorn is the most ruthless Alpha in the Northern Territories. He is 24, unmated, and has sworn to never take a Luna because his mother was murdered by humans. His wolf has never bowed to anyone - not even the Lycan King. Until he finds a half-naked, blue-eyed human girl in his forbidden forest, commanding his Beta to kneel with a single word. His wolf doesn't want to mark her. His wolf wants to worship her. Aria is not a werewolf. She is not a Luna. She is something the world thought was extinct. She is a Second Moon Wolf - the original race. The race that made Alphas. The race that can control Alphas with her voice, turn humans into wolves with a bite, and end the one-moon law that has ruled for a thousand years. And she is not the only one. The six other babies bitten that night did not die. They became Alphas. The strongest, cruelest Alphas in the continent. And they all remember one thing from that night: her scent. The scent of the only baby who didn't scream. Now the second moon is full again. And all seven of them are coming for her. Kael has two choices: Kill the girl who could enslave his entire species with one command... Or claim her. Mark her. Make her his Queen before the other six Alphas turn her into theirs. But what Kael doesn't know is - Aria's voice doesn't work on just any wolf. It works on him because he is already hers. And she has never learned how to stop commanding the man she is starting to love. UNDER THE SECOND MOON is a dark, possessive, fated-mates werewolf fantasy romance about a human girl who was never human at all, and the ruthless Alpha who has to decide if his Luna is his salvation... or the end of all wolves.”
