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

I run up to my room when I get to the house and shut the door behind me. I’m hoping Rick gets the message, because I really feel like being alone right now. The knock on the door tells me he did not. I dry my eyes the best I can and swing open the door. 


“Raven, what happened?” he asks me in a concerned voice. 


“Nothing, Rowena is just in shock from her attack. She’s not a big fan of werewolves right now, so I thought it would be best if we left,” I say stiffly. He comes up to me and tips my chin up to look into my eyes. 


“I’m not buying it. What really happened?” he says quietly. 


His kindness is my undoing. I let out a whimper and he pulls me into his arms, holding me tightly to his chest. I cry softly into his chest as I blubber out broken sentences. 


“She doesn’t...want...to see...me. Because of...you,” I say.


“Well that’s just silly. She’ll come around. Like you said, she’s in shock. She just needs to process everything and heal,” he replies to the top of my head.
