Prologue
Athena was the pack’s punching bag. The slave; as she was called by many of her pack mates. Her birthday was coming up and normally she wouldn’t care, but this was her 17th birthday. The day that she becomes of age and finds her mate. And hopefully the day that she can say goodbye to her awful life. But what happens when she finds out that her mate is none other than the main source of her pain? Will she forgive them all and become Luna? Or will they reject her and let the beating continue?
Ares was named Alpha King after his father’s death 10 years ago. And because he’s king, he has to go check on the packs around his territory twice a year to make sure everything is running smoothly. He was about to go check on a pack, but a rogue problem made him late to go see the girl that desperately needed his help. But when he returns to his castle, his Beta brings news of new female human that his wolf has taken a sudden interest in. No one seems to know who she is or where she even came from. Can they uncover this mystery?

I just started reading and I love how this story blends fantasy world-building with real emotional stakes. Athena’s journey from being treated as the pack’s punching bag to someone with strength and agency is really compelling, and the tension with Ares makes me want to keep reading. The dynamic between characters feels raw and natural, not just tropey. Great pacing so far! 😊
Hey! Your attention to worldbuilding is honestly incredible. Every part of the story feels purposeful and emotionally rich, and the depth of the lore makes it so easy to get completely immersed in your world. The latest chapter was amazing, and while reading it, I found myself coming up with a few ideas and theories about where the story might go I’d love to share them with you.
This sounds like such an emotional and dramatic read! Athena being treated as the pack’s punching bag, only to discover that the Alpha King is her mate, makes me really curious about what she’ll choose. I’m especially interested in how Ares will react when he discovers who his mysterious mate really is. 👀
