Blood Moon Ascent #955308

On the night the red moon rises, the hunted become hunters.
Dr. Elara Vance has built her career on logic. As a wildlife geneticist, she doesn’t believe in myths — only mutations. But when a brutal animal attack leaves her stranded in a remote mountain town, she begins to suspect the predator stalking the forest isn’t entirely animal.
Kael Morrigan has spent his life protecting a secret older than civilization. As Alpha of the last sovereign werewolf pack in North America, he enforces one rule above all: humans must never know.
When Elara survives a bite that should have killed her, the balance shatters.
Now rival packs circle the territory. A rogue wolf is spilling blood in the town. And as the Blood Moon approaches — a rare celestial event that can either crown a new Alpha… or unleash a monster — Elara must decide what she is willing to become.
Because the most dangerous transformation isn’t physical.
It’s power.
