"What have we done to deserve such a great honor?" her parents said as they bowed, placing their faces on the floor.

Ava Carter has always felt different. She knew she wasn't like the rest of the wolves. Burdened by fear of what the world would say if they discovered her powers, she hides her ability to heal in an instant.
Then, a proposal comes from Lorcan who used to bully her. Ava rejects him, determined to seek the answers she's been searching for her whole life.
Soon after, the Twin Alphas of her pack, Rafferty and Treyton, offer her a contract: become their Luna, a shared mate of convenience, for the good of the kingdom. Though the offer is tempting, Ava turns them down too.
What will happen next?
