Waiting for a soulmate to be reborn into the world is no easy feat. Not just for humans, but even for immortal beings like Damon Ryth—a noble vampire. He must continue living through his long wait, filled with yearning. A promise he still holds tightly to this day. Yet, the fate of their love has never been simple, and certainly never easy. Lunar Feva, Damon’s beloved, has been reborn as Selina. She is no ordinary girl; she is the center of a destiny intertwining three realms—vampires, wolves, and humans. Three worlds bound by complex rules and ancient pacts. Three worlds that desire Selina. Even though this time she was born fully human, her blood holds a unique essence, and another presence still slumbers within her, waiting to awaken. Waiting to meet the one she loves and fulfill her promise. On the other hand, there is another noble vampire—Drac Vozasmyth, Damon’s eternal rival, who takes pleasure in the game of fate. Drac desires Lunar, not for her uniqueness or immense power. Simply because Lunar is Lunar. When it comes to hate and love, Damon and Drac share the same emotions. Perhaps one slightly outweighs the other. That alone binds them together while also driving them into fierce conflict—where their love once ended in tragedy. Meanwhile, Zane Asgard, heir of the Asgard wolf family and Alpha of the Shadowed Pines pack, is tasked with protecting Selina from the looming shadows of destruction. He must fight against a conflicting fate, even as he begins to feel something more than just duty toward her. Zane wants Selina to choose him, to accept him as her true mate. Will fate favor Damon once more this time? Will Drac cast aside his pride for Lunar’s happiness? Can Zane pull Lunar away from both Damon and Drac? Or will Lunar choose to remain human, with all the limitations that come with it?
