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

I pace the room, my emotions flying here and there and everywhere. Nothing makes sense, nothing is in my understanding. All my emotions are jumbled. Anger at Luc for not letting me go to Jim, sadness for both my wanting to be in Luc's arms, as well as missing Jim's. Hurt from the look of hatred in Jim's eyes, not sure if it resides there for Luc or for myself. Pain due to Jim not even trying to come to me. Not one step in my direction did he take. Not a single one. I feel like I'm looking through a window on a man I thought I knew. The man I knew would have done anything to protect his family. This man looked absolutely cold. I'm so confused.
