So here is a little recap of Prince Harold's life: If anyone was looking for a person that was cold, brutal, and without an iota of conscience in the moon kingdom and beyond, they would have to pick him.
When he was a little boy, he would watch gory scenes of people dying with a smile on his face, as if it was amusing to him. There were rumors that his late mother was an enslaved person who had been captured during a fight with another pack, and that his mother was an Omega. The king had taken a liking to her, and he, an alpha, was the product of it, much to the chagrin of the queen.
There was also the rumor that he killed his half-brother, the queen's first son, and that the moon goddess had cursed him because of his bad temper. He could not marry a lady of his kind, and he was cursed to shift form every night, unlike the others who shifted mostly when there was a full moon.
