Heartbound by the Moon
“He was the blade.
She was the vow.
But the Moon loved neither.”
Before the Spiral chose, there were two wolves who carried the weight of legacy alone.
Ava, the fierce daughter of the Hollow, was born under a perfect golden moon—meant to lead, meant to obey, meant to become the heir her mother bled for. But when the Moon failed to name her, and the Hollow’s silence deepened, Ava’s faith in the old order cracked. Loyalty, once her armor, became her cage.
Callum, once a favored sentinel of the Hollow Court, now bears the scars of a failed mission and a promise he couldn’t keep. Haunted by the Spiral’s secrets and Rowen’s rising power, he walks the path between protector and exile—drawn to a truth that could destroy the last bond he believes in.
As rebellion stirs and the Moon watches without speaking, Ava and Callum are forced into uneasy alliance. Both bound by duty, both in love with ghosts, both watching Rowen become something the old world cannot contain. Together, they must confront what the Spiral truly is—not prophecy, but a choice. Not sacred, but alive.
In a world collapsing under tradition and longing, Ava and Callum must decide if they are meant to uphold the old order…
Or bury it.
