What would you do if you were fated to someone whose heart belongs to another? Would you fight for control, or simply exit, stage left? This is the big question playing through Luciano's mind. Luciano is a werewolf. His mate is human. A married human. Will fate prevail? Or will he walk away?

Sometimes fate just has to mess with a good thing. Hopefully it has a good reason. Hello, my name is Amber Rayne, and this is my story. 
As I stood in front of my stove watching the gurgling pot of sauce, I couldnt help but sigh in contentment at how my life was going. Perfect husband, works hards, and loves harder. 

As I stand in the field surrounded by a multitude of bodies and covered in blood, I can't help but think of what brought me here. My mate. Or lack thereof. I have searched to the ends of the earth since the day I turned 18 but to no avail. She doesn't exsist. It's the only reason I can imagine. Why the MoonGoddess feels I do not deserve love is beyond my ability to understand.

Already Taken

As we approach the training field I can see the light shine in Ben's eyes. I know this is nothing like he has ever seen before, considering he has never been a part of a pack. 


"I thought you might like to join in with some of my warriors for training Ben. It will strengthen your skills and help you to better defend your mate when you find her." 


"Are you serious?! I would love too! Are you sure you don't mind?" He asked quietly. 


"Not at all," I tell him. Looking around I spot one of my best warriors and close friends, Luka. "He Luka," I yelled, "come here a moment." 


"This here is Ben, my new friend. Could you show him the ropes and personally see to his training so he can catch up with the group?" 


"It will be my pleasure Alpha. Hi Ben. If you'll follow me we'll get started and see where you stand." 


With a quick hug from his sister, Ben trots off in Lukas wake. 


"Now if you'll follow me Dawn I have a suprise for you."
