Moonbound (Paranormal) — Truman Capote

In a world where the phases of the moon govern magic, destiny, and power, seventeen-year-old Lyra Ashcroft has always felt like an outsider. Born on the rare lunar eclipse, an event known as the Blood Moon, Lyra's connection to the moon's cycles is said to be unparalleled. But instead of power, she's lived a life of solitude and whispers-haunted by dreams she doesn't understand and a mark on her palm that glows with silver light under the moon's gaze.When a mysterious stranger arrives in her isolated village, Lyra's life is upended. The stranger reveals that Lyra is Moonbound, one of the few chosen by the ancient lunar spirits to protect the fragile balance between light and darkness. Her birth under the Blood Moon wasn't a curse but a signal of her destiny: to stand against the growing shadow that threatens to consume their world.Swept away to the Moonveil Citadel, Lyra discovers a secretive order of Moonbound like herself-each tied to a different phase of the moon and gifted with unique abilities. From the fierce warriors of the Full Moon to the cunning strategists of the Crescent, Lyra must find her place among them while learning to harness her own untamed powers.But darkness looms closer than anyone realizes. An ancient foe known only as the Eclipse King is rising, his goal to sever the moon's connection to the earth and plunge the world into eternal night. As Lyra delves deeper into her training, she uncovers a chilling truth: her dreams are visions, fragments of a past life where she once faced the Eclipse King-and failed.Now, the weight of the world rests on Lyra's shoulders. To stop the Eclipse King, she must embrace the power she's always feared and unite the Moonbound before it's too late. But the closer she comes to fulfilling her destiny, the more she questions whether the moon's will is truly her own-or if she's merely a pawn in a celestial game far beyond her comprehension.Moonbound is a spellbinding tale of magic, destiny, and the unyielding strength it takes to stand against the darkness. In a battle where the light of the moon is both a weapon and a guide, Lyra must decide if she's ready to claim the power that's always been hers-or risk losing everything she's ever known.
