When young witch Raven kills a werewolf in self-defense, she has no idea of the severity of her actions. In order to stop a war, Raven is sent to serve Alpha Alaric, a dangerous man whose hatred of witches is well known.  As Raven acclimates to her new life amongst the enemy, she is shocked to realize that her intense attraction to Alaric is reciprocated. Will Raven survive amongst the werewolves and stop a war…or will she be overtaken by the dangerous passion that threatens to consume her. 

“‘I trust this will suit your purposes,’ he says. A big four poster bed sits in the middle of the room with.   
‘My purpose of sleeping? I would think so,’ I retort and he growls in response. He stalks towards me and I back up until my knees hit the bed. 
“You’ve got quite the mouth on you, Raven. But I don’t believe it’s being properly utilized,” he whispers in a sexy voice. His lips are so close to mine they are almost touching and I exhale a shallow breath. I’m frozen where I stand, caught in a trance.   
I feel overwhelmed by him and I tell myself I’m not enjoying it. But I know deep down that it’s not true. Something is anchoring me to him that I can’t explain. I shiver in response to his proximity and he lets out an almost imperceptible growl. I feel compelled to reach up and touch his face, to move my mouth closer so he has better access. I’m the one that’s a witch, but I find myself bound under the Alpha’s spell.”

Under the Alpha's Spell

Over the next couple of days, Rick gets his investigation of the rogue wolves under way and I take some much needed time to myself. I have to keep taking naps because of my headaches, but I continue to improve. 


I contemplate the future a lot while I recover, specifically how Rick and I are going to make this work and the status of my place in the coven should we attempt to be together. 


I’m downstairs in the formal living room when there’s a knock on the door that startles me out of my daydreaming. I open it to find Moira standing before me looking a little chagrined.


“Moira! I’m so glad to see you. How is Rowena?” I ask.


“She’s doing alright, she just needs more time. How are you? I’m sorry I didn’t come sooner, but I wanted to make sure Rowena was ok before I came to check on you,” she replies. 


“I’m feeling much better. Do you have news from the coven? The last encounter with Lavinia didn’t go so well,” I inquire.
