In her first life, Aurelia loved her adopted brother Conrad. He chose her cruel sister Ella instead. The rejection sparked a war. Aurelia died in battle, broken and unloved. Then she woke up. It was the day of the arranged marriage. She had a choice: stay and suffer again, or leave. She chose the wolf everyone feared. She offered herself to Ronan, the cold-blooded Northern Alpha. She expected death. She found a king who saw her fire. She proved herself in snow and blood. She tamed the beast. He gave her his name, his throne, his heart. Conrad discovered Ella's lies too late. He came to take Aurelia back. Ronan defeated him. Ella tried to kill Aurelia. She failed. Aurelia survived. She became the Luna of the North. She saved her family. She claimed her crown. The girl who had been discarded became the queen who could not be replaced.
