"What are you even doing here, Azshara? We are already divorced. If you want anything, you can directly ask my assistant for help." He said, irritated that she would come after years just on the day he wanted no mistakes.She smirked as she quietly approached him and whispered in his ears."What do you mean, Mr. Hades? You are the one who invited the Alpha of Lightshade. I am here for business.""So, you are the Luna of Light Shade?" He asked confused. It wasn't possible for Azshara to marry another man when she loved him, right?"I am not anyone's Luna. I am the Alpha." She chuckled. She leaned even closer than before as she whispered the words that could make anyone shiver."The prey is now the predator." ***Azshara Nightshade, the Luna of the Moon Banes pack gets discarded after the former lover of the Alpha, Cesare Hades is found. Even though Azshara was the mate bestowed by the Goddess, she was not strong enough to deserve an Alpha like Cesare. Years after their separation, a newly formed pack, Light Shade, rises in the ranks of strength and reputation and catches the eye of all packs. And soon, all packs ally to support Light Shade in overthrowing Moon Banes. A war between Moon Banes and Light Shade would be no less than a massacre. And it would weaken both the packs during which others would get an opportunity to subjugate the most powerful packs. But no one ever expected both of them to ally. And no one, not even Cesare, knew how a discarded Luna became an Alpha.Cover credits: @Alfaesha…
