The Bloodmoon Claim

Reads

She was sold like she meant nothing. Maya Reynolds thought aging out of foster care would be the hardest fight of her life. She was wrong. Betrayed by the only family she ever knew, she finds herself blindfolded, chained, and auctioned to the highest bidder. But the man who buys her is far more terrifying than the others. Ulric Wolfhart is cold, powerful, and utterly merciless. A leader born to command, he does not believe in fate, weakness, or mercy. Yet the moment he sees Maya, something ancient and unbreakable awakens inside him — a bond he never asked for and does not trust. So he does the only thing he knows how to do. He tries to break her. Not out of cruelty… but because in his world, fragile things do not survive. Surrounded by dominant warriors and brutal pack politics, Maya is forced to learn quickly: obedience can be survival, silence can be strength, and sometimes the most dangerous monsters are the ones who begin to care. Because the more Ulric tries to harden her, the more she changes him. What begins as ownership becomes protection. What begins as fear becomes tension. What begins as survival becomes something neither of them can control. But in a world where power is everything and weakness is punished, loving the wrong person could destroy them both. And if Maya breaks under Ulric's hand… She will never survive the enemies waiting for her.
