She woke up in a forest, covered in blood that wasn’t hers, with no name, no voice, and a scar that burned like fire. Five-year-old Elara is a mystery, even to herself, until a gruff werewolf pack takes her in—and a boy with kind green eyes promises to keep her safe. But the forest isn’t done with her. Murders haunt the night, each marked by a crescent like her scar, and whispers of the Viper—a legendary power that commands the wild—point to Elara. As her voice returns and strange powers awaken, vines twisting at her touch, Elara’s caught between fear and destiny. Jasper, the alpha’s son, stands by her, his shy smiles turning into stolen kisses that light up her heart. But with rogue wolves hunting her, a shadowy creature calling her name, and the pack turning against her, Elara must face the truth: is she a lost girl or a force that could destroy them all? Love and danger collide in The Viper’s Claim, a heart-pounding tale of a girl finding her power, her past, and the boy who’ll fight the wild to save her.
