Story Guide
Episode 1
Lyra dies with her newborn daughter in her arms, torn apart by the pack while her own mate leads the slaughter. Her dying curse is simple: give me one more life, and I'll make him pay.
She wakes on the day Draven rejects her. Before the elders, he casts her aside and names Selina, who rests a hand on her belly and smiles. Selina shifts into pure white fur, and the pack crowns her the moon's chosen while Lyra becomes the stain. Draven leans in close with a warning: she shamed him last life, and she never will again.
Lyra just smiles. She knows something about Selina's "pure" pup that no one else does.

Episode 2
A rejected mate has no protection, no rank, no one to stop the pack from doing as it pleases. Draven expects Lyra to crawl and beg the way she did before. Instead she stands and invokes moon law: she will claim a new mate.
The hall gasps. The elder warns her there's no undoing it — whoever she claims, she's bound to him for life. Lyra points to a stranger leaning against a far pillar, a lone wolf with no pack and no bloodline. The room sneers at her choice of a stray over a pureblood.
When their hands meet, something goes warm soul to soul. He murmurs that she took long enough to find him.

Episode 3
A new bond only counts under an open moon, so the pack drives everyone into the trees. In the clearing, Selina smirks and tells Lyra to let the stray sink his teeth in. Lyra's reply is quiet and pointed: watch your own litter first, sister. Selina's smirk cracks.
Mikael leans in, teeth grazing her neck — then Draven shoves through the circle and rips her back, insisting she's still his to deal with. Lyra answers before the whole pack: last life, he fed her and her pup to the pack, and she felt every tooth.
Draven goes pale. Then Mikael's hand closes over his wrist, black claws break through, and his eyes burn gold.
Episode 4
Ragnar Blackthorn pushes to the front — Draven's father, the oldest pureblood alive. He orders the claiming stopped. Lyra asks on what law, since she was rejected and chose another, and he has no answer that wouldn't expose him.
She bares the back of her neck and tells Mikael to finish it. His teeth sink in, white light erupts, and a white crescent mark blazes on her skin. The older wolves drop low, shaking. Ragnar goes gray, insisting that mark can't be real.
Lyra touches the crescent. The White Wolf was buried long ago, her mother once told her — and tonight she marked Lyra as her own.
You killed the White Wolf once. Did you think she'd stay down?
Watch it and see who's still standing when the moon comes out.
