Tara Landon has never experienced love–even worse–she’s endured a lifetime of beatings. After reaching her breaking point, she decides to run away to start a new life without anyone pinning her down or holding her back. 

However, not far into her journey, she is intercepted by soon-to-be alpha Victor Bane, a brooding, mysterious, emerald-eyed man. The thought of him scares Tara as much as it arouses her. 

She doesn’t think much of the encounter until she learns that…oh, she’s destined to be Luna of Victor’s pack. The freedom she sought is quickly ripped away from her and she must make a decision: to accept or reject her fated mate.

“I have you for a lifetime, Tara. I can be patient,” he relayed with an erotic moan.

He looked me in the eyes, as I gestured for him to unbutton my blouse. I whispered, “You might be patient, Victor. But, it isn’t polite to keep a woman waiting.”

“What will it take for you to say yes?” he asked lustfully.

“Something you can’t give.”

The Alpha and His Outlander Luna

I stared at the girl in the mirror and I hardly recognized her. She had bags under her eyes and she looked like she had been through hell and back. 


I bent down and splashed some cold water on my face. 


It had been a long night and I knew that today would be an even longer day. We needed answers and I knew that we weren’t going to find them easily. 


I had never felt so helpless like I did then. 


After I retracted my shield the writhing stopped and he seemed to calm for a time. I felt so terrible. The one thing that was meant to protect him was hurting him. I had wanted to break out into tears but I knew that it would do me no good. 


I needed to find a way to stop this from happening. 


The door to the bathroom opened and Victor walked in. He came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me in. 


I leaned into him and closed my eyes, relishing in the feel of my mate against me.
