On the night of the Blood Moon, Elara Winterbourne knelt in the Moon Temple with silver around her wrists. Her mate, the Alpha King, rejected her before the entire pack. Her stepsister stood at his side wearing the mark that should have been hers. A blade ended Elara's life, and the last thing she saw was Lucian's empty, unfamiliar eyes.
Then she woke up.
Three years earlier, in her childhood bed, on the eve of the very Mating Ceremony that doomed her, the Moon Goddess has given her one chance to rewrite her fate. This time, Elara will not beg for love. She will not drink the wine, trust the smile, or kneel.
But the people who destroyed her are already moving. Her stepmother is poisoning her father's tea. Her stepsister is feeding the king a tonic that steals his mind. And a rival Alpha with a silver blade is waiting for the Seal at Elara's throat to wake, because she carries the blood of the first Luna Queen, and someone has spent twenty years hiding it.
Worse, Lucian is dreaming. He sees the temple. He sees the blade. And he is beginning to remember what he did.
Can a rejected Luna forgive the man who watched her die? Or will she burn the whole kingdom down to keep her second chance?
Betrayal made her a ghost. Rebirth will make her a queen.
