Astrid lives alone with her dad; she has no idea she is a werewolf or that they even exist! 

It turns out the man that helped raise Astrid isn't her father at all, he tells her that her mother wanted her to have a ""normal"" life until the day she turned eighteen when she would have no choice but to tell Astrid the truth about her identity.

After a tragedy that killed her mother, her father turns abusive towards her over the years for her mother's death. 

Astrid remained completely unaware of her heritage, until a man named Ryker comes into her life claiming they are mates!

The Alpha’s Mate Who Cried Wolf

　　Amelia and I sit on the porch drinking tea, heavily pregnant with our second babies, while Magnus plays with little Nina, Amelia and Leon's daughter; aptly-named Nina because she was such a small, tiny baby, and Nina means, ‘little girl’. I think it’s quite cute. We laugh loudly as little Nina holds in a mouthful of water and squirts it into Magnus's face. She pokes her tongue out at him, runs away and Magnus chases after her.


　　‘Nina! You just wait till I catch you!’ He yells.


　　‘Little Nina and Magnus are the complete opposite of each other; it would be interesting to see if the Moon Goddess chooses them as mates,’ I say.


　　‘I dunno. Every playdate we have, Nina wears poor Magnus out. She is always playing tricks on him; she is so silly and cheeky, and he is so serious and sensible,’ Amelia says, laughing.


　　‘I think I need to go to the bathroom,’ I tell her.


　　‘Me too,’ Amelia says. We both call out for our mates.
