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

　　Arriving in Wellmore village, Sir Hugo drapes his enormous cape over me, hiding my hands in the iron cuffs.


　　I’m grateful for his cape, I haven’t got my olive-green cloak, and I’m freezing.


　　Villagers stop in their tracks and stare at me with wonder and amazement.


　　‘It's the Forest Princess!’ Others exclaim.


　　‘Such beauty!’ Someone else adds.


　　The crowd forms around us, and Sir Hugo's blocking our passage.


　　‘Move! Out of my way!’ Sir Hugo demands.


　　The crowd doesn’t move, and more people gather.


　　‘Maia?’ Vivian shouts, and I watch her push her way through the gathering.


　　‘Vivian!’ I yell, in obvious distress. Many people look at Vivian and wonder how we know each other.


　　‘I’ve been kidnap-,’ I say. A sharp blade pokes my back in a warning to not speak.
