What bride would want to marry a prince who would put a crown made of thorn on her head?
What kind of groom would vow to protect his bride, knowing his task was to kill her in the end?

A descendant of a once-powerful and proud Alpha King, Avana pledged to become the next Alpha and swore never to submit to their enemies. 
But could she run away from her destiny?

A son of a Tyrant King, Adam desired revenge against those who killed his mother and condemned him to live as a monster for eternity. 
But would finding his bride give him what he had sought for centuries?

Will Avana and Adam finally succumb to this impending union? Will destiny destroy them or be their salvation?

"I have searched for you for centuries." Adam grabbed her by the arm, pulling her closer until their faces were inches away. Eyes locked in a battle of will.

"Why?" Avana reacted, suddenly drowning in the intensity of his stare. "So, you can hurt me." Saying barely in a whisper. "Kill me?"

"No." He responded as his lips grazed through her temple, leaning even closer.

"Then, why?" She closed her eyes as electricity coursed through her body with that slight contact of his lips on her skin.

"So, I can claim you as mine."

The Dark Prince and The Runaway Heiress

Avana waited for him to tell her what was on his mind, wondering what could be bothering him that was so hard to share with her.

And when he finally revealed the truth, she looked at him with dread in her eyes. She discovered that he was the monster underneath her bed, in her dreams, no nightmares.

He was the horrible creature that had her running for her life. Now, she was packing her things and ready to leave, not wanting to stay a minute longer in this place.

He had fooled her. They all did. They all made her believe she was safe with them, while they knew who she was. He called her by her real name, Avana Dumont. There was no doubt.

"I am Prince Adam Cromwell, Prince of the Vatalis Clan and son of King Charles." As if that was not enough, he continued. "I am the one who killed many of your ancestors."
