Cara Wylder is the last female in the prestigious Wylder lineage, a family blessed with a rare and powerful she-wolf known as the Golden Luna. This ancient blessing grants her lineage immense power, as any Alpha bonded to her is destined to rule with unmatched strength. However, Cara’s legacy is threatened by a secret—she cannot shift into her wolf form. As rumors of her wolflessness begin to spread, her father, Alpha Roy Wylder, offers her hand in marriage to Darius Wrent, the powerful Lycan King, in an effort to preserve her reputation and the family's standing. On their wedding day, Darius, suspicious of her lack of a wolf’s presence, demands that Cara shift in front of the gathered wolves. When she fails to do so, he publicly rejects her, leaving her disgraced and humiliated. As the other powerful Alphas look on, uninterested in a wolfless bride, Darius mockingly asks if any would dare take her hand. To everyone’s surprise, Lucien Valen, a weakened Alpha who lost most of his power after the death of his fated mate, steps forward to claim her. Lucien, once a contender for Alpha King, has been ridiculed for years, holding onto his title solely due to the loyalty of his people. Ignoring the scorn of the other Alphas, Lucien marries Cara and takes her to his castle. Though she expects a life of shame, Cara soon discovers that Lucien is not cruel, neither is he weak Alpha the others believe him to be. His power remains but is locked under the grief from the loss that haunts him and his inability to enact revenge even after all this years. As they get closer, unsettling truths about Lucien's past and the mastermind behind the fall of the once legendary Alpha is exposed.

The Golden Luna Four: The weight of an alpha
Lucien’s POVThe heavy oak door of my study clicked shut behind me, sealing me in blessed silence. I exhaled, leaning back against it for a moment, allowing the weight of the day to rest on my shoulders. The decision to take Cara Wylder as my mate had been a strange one that surprised even me. I'd spent the entire journey trying to figure out why I'd done that. I still didn't exactly have the answers, nor could I particularly defend my decision before any of my people, but it had been done and I was damned if I was going to go back and forth on it. Straightening, I crossed to my desk, the intricate patterns carved into its surface barely visible beneath the stacks of correspondence, reports, and council summons. I ignored the bulk of it, reaching instead for the sealed letter sitting on its own. Breaking the wax seal with a sharp flick of my wrist, I skimmed the contents.It was another reprimand from my beloved council. Their disappointment in my failure to forge a political union

Cara’s POV : The rhythmic clopping of hooves against cobblestone punctuated the silence that had settled in the carriageHe sat opposite me, his face partly obscured by the shadow, his presence filling the cramped space between us. I studied his profile; the tightness in his jaw as he stared out the carriage at the blur of passing trees, lost in his own world. Did he regret taking me as a mate? Was he contemplating taking me back? Would my father allow it? “I regret wasting so much time and resources trying to fix whatever you are. You’ve brought nothing but disappointment to this family.” My father’s voice echoed in my head and I shut my eyes tightly in a desperate attempt to forget. He would never allow me return. I was stuck here, with Lucien Valen— completely at his mercy— and there was nothing I could do about it.Time passed slowly as we traveled deeper into the countryside where Lucien’s castle lay. Our arrival was heralded with the ring of a bell and my breath caught in m

Cara's POV The hall, once filled with mocking laughter and leering faces, fell into a stunned silence. Murmurs spread like wildfire as everyone processed what they had just heard. I myself, abandoned my manners and gaped at him, unable to believe he had actually said that. Even Darius who had preened over his control of the situation looked momentarily taken aback. He recovered quickly and let out a long, booming laugh filled with ridicule. When it finally died down, he looked at Lucien, eyes gleaming with barely controlled malice masked with a thin layer of amusement.“You? You want to claim her?” He mocked, his voice dripping with contempt. “I’m surprised you even bothered to show your face around here Lucien. I heard your claws have been clipped.”Lucien barely flinched, his calm, unflappable exterior firmly in place. He seemed a bit contained, but I wouldn’t at all describe him as a wolf without claws. He just didn’t seem all that interested in drawing them. “My claws are jus

Cara's POV I woke to the sound of bustling servants, the echo of footsteps and hurried whispers filling the hall outside my chamber. It was my wedding day, I thought with a sinking feeling, bile rising in my throat as I stared at the ceiling above me. The morning passed in a blur, every second counting to prepare me for the afternoon. Dresses were draped over me, my hair tamed, my skin perfumed and powdered. Despite the short notice of the wedding, it went very smoothly, leading me to wonder just how long father had been planning this before he informed me. I was ready just in time because two servants came shortly after the maids left, their faces set in impassive masks as they led me to my father. I followed silently. As we entered the great hall, I stiffened, folding into myself at the sight of the small crowd that had already gathered. Steeling my nerves, I walked down to where my father was seated, and took the empty chair beside him, doing my best to ignore the eyes and whis
Last Updated : 2024-10-22The Golden Luna One: The Cage of Expectations
Cara’s POV I was sitting through yet another round of meditation, one of the many things I was required to do to help my predicament when a maid came to call me. “Your father would like to see you, My lady.” She said with a curtsey and my nerves rattled immediately. Taking a deep breath, I rose and made my way to him, already dreading the meeting. He rarely requested my presence these days. He seldom smiled when he did see me. After all, what reason did he have to smile? I— once his pride and joy— was now the sole source of shame to our great pack and no matter how hard I tried, there was nothing I could do about it. My heart pounded in my chest as I stood outside his study, fingers trembling on the brass handle. The heavy oak door loomed in front of me, a barrier between me and the inevitable disappointment that would be etched into my father’s face once I stepped in. I knew why he had summoned me. It was the same reason he always did. The wolf. My wolf—or rather, the lack of her.
