The Runaway Luna's Return: An Alpha's Obsession
Rose Nightingale's wedding day to Alpha Victor Ironstone should be the happiest day of her life, but as she stands in her bridal suite, she overhears Victor's groomsmen laughing about his plan to "break her spirit" like he did his first wife, who died under suspicious circumstances. Terrified, Rose climbs out her window and flees in her wedding dress, leaving behind everything she's ever known.
Her desperate escape is covered up by family shame and Victor's rage. To avoid embarrassment, Rose's cousin Emma volunteers to take her place at the altar, believing Victor can't be as bad as Rose claimed. The ceremony proceeds with Emma wearing Rose's veil, and the deception succeeds because Victor barely looked at his bride during their engagement. For three years, Emma endures the abuse that Rose escaped, while the Nightingale family pretends Rose never existed.
Rose survives in human territory by taking on a false identity and working multiple jobs. Her struggle is real—she has no pack protection, limited money, and constant fear that Victor will find her. But adversity forges her into someone stronger. She earns her GED, then a college degree, and eventually starts her own business helping domestic abuse survivors. Her personal experience gives her unique insight into the signs and patterns of abuse.
When Rose receives news that Emma has died in a "hunting accident," she knows it's murder. Guilt and rage drive her to return home for the first time in five years. She's no longer the frightened girl who fled her wedding—she's a confident businesswoman with resources, connections, and a deep understanding of how predators operate. She's also trained in self-defense and has built a network of allies who specialize in helping abuse victims.
Victor is stunned to see Rose at Emma's funeral. The woman who ran from him has become everything he tried to prevent Emma from becoming—independent, strong, and unafraid. His attempts to reassert control over her fail spectacularly as Rose exposes his abuse to pack leadership and threatens him with legal action. She's done her homework and has evidence of his crimes that could destroy him.
As Rose works to get justice for Emma and help other women Victor has terrorized, she discovers that her escape saved more than just her own life—it inspired other pack members to document Victor's behavior and plan their own resistance. Her return becomes a catalyst for change that transforms the entire pack dynamic. Among her unexpected allies, she finds someone whose quiet strength and unwavering support begins to heal wounds she didn't know still existed.
Victor's obsession with reclaiming Rose intensifies as he realizes she's the one woman he couldn't break. His pursuit of her becomes increasingly dangerous as his power base crumbles and pack members turn against him. Rose must stay one step ahead while building a case that will put Victor away forever, all while wrestling with survivor's guilt over Emma's fate, her own complicated feelings about the home she left behind, and the possibility that her guarded heart might finally be ready to trust again.
