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

　　My mother falls to her knees and tries to comfort me. I’m covered in sweat and in a lot of pain.


　　‘What is wrong with him, Ryker?’


　　‘I don’t know. It’s not meant to be painful. I’ve never seen a shift like this before. Something isn’t right. Let’s get him to his room and call the Pack doctor.’


　　Seth, Leon, and my dad carry me to my room.


　　‘He’s got a fever.’ Mum says, touching my forehead.


　　Seth leaves to get the Pack doctor while mum stays by my side wiping my face with a cold face washer. My whole body is shaking and I cannot speak.


　　‘Maybe it has something to do with shifting early?’ Dad suggests.


　　The pack doctor arrives and takes my obs.


　　‘He has a fever, but I’m struggling to see how it has anything to do with shifting. And you mentioned he was in immense pain when he shifted back?’


　　‘Yes, he was screaming in pain, doctor.’ Dad says.
