Synopsis: Moonlight & Magic: The Alpha's Academy Secret
At Obsidian Academy, a school designed exclusively for the supernatural elite, Elara Vance is merely trying to survive. As a human carrying only a fractured, dormant trace of magical blood, she must rely on pure stubbornness to maintain her academic scholarship and avoid being sent back to the mundane world. Surrounded by pureblood witches and intimidating werewolf packs, she keeps her head down and focuses on her studies.
Her precarious existence is entirely upended one night during the academy's Moon Festival when she accidentally crosses paths with Kaelen Thorne, the deeply feared and powerful Alpha heir of the Nightshade Pack. A brief, accidental touch between them during their tense encounter reveals an ancient and theoretically impossible truth: they are fated mates.
The magnetic pull of the bond is undeniable, yet Kaelen instantly and viciously rejects her, demanding she stay away from him before disappearing into the shadows.
However, in the cold aftermath of his harsh rejection, Elara discovers a heavy silver pendant that Kaelen dropped on the damp cobblestones. Engraved on the back of the crescent moon charm is a jagged, forbidden runic symbol exclusively tied to dark magic, not werewolf packs. Elara quickly realizes that her new mate is hiding a deeply sinister secret that is far more dangerous than a simple rejected bond.
