"A rightful wolf alpha is treacherously ambushed by his rival, blinded in one eye, and caged as a feral ""beast"" in a cliffside dungeon. The usurper seizes the throne, bound by the ancient Luna Law: after one fateful night, both his destined mate and her scheming mistress carry his child.
Fooled by his lover’s lies, he torments his true mate, frames her for adultery, orchestrates her public miscarriage, shames her before the clan, dissolves their betrothal, and hurls her off the cliff to the caged monster below—never guessing it is the deposed alpha he betrayed.
Beneath the cliff, the two broken souls grow from wary strangers to lovers. When the fallen alpha’s mating heat hits, he hides it to protect her, but she gives herself to him willingly. High above, the usurper makes a shattering discovery mid-intimacy: the woman from that night, whose child he killed, was his true mate all along.
Racked with guilt, he descends to beg forgiveness, only to fall into an enemy trap. Both women hang over the abyss; only one can be saved. The fallen alpha battles the enemy, trusting the usurper to save his mate. Yet he chooses his pregnant mistress instead.
“You still didn’t choose me,” she whispers, falling to her death. The fallen alpha leaps after her.
He returns with her body, slays the guilty pair, reclaims his throne, and preserves her remains forever as a solitary, grieving king."
