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

By the time I wake up, Evanora and Seraphina have gone. Rick and I eat a quiet breakfast together, the upcoming task weighing heavy on our hearts. We are suddenly interrupted by Lydia of all people and I notice she has a defeated look in her eyes. 


“I wanted to apologize to you both for the actions of my son,” she says softly. 


I feel a surge of sympathy for her. No matter how she has treated me in the past, she is a mother who has lost contact with her only son and I imagine she is in a great deal of pain.


“It’s not necessary, Lydia. You had nothing to do with it,” I say kindly. 


“I never encouraged him to manipulate Raven, but I have always encouraged him to become powerful and strong and take what he wants. I spent too much time doting on him and not enough teaching him to earn his way in the world and be honorable. It is my deepest regret,” she replies. 


She is obviously having a very hard time getting her words out so I stand up and put a hand on her shoulder in comfort.
