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 didn’t even understand how we had gotten here. I had thought that we had moved past all of this outlander crap but clearly we hadn’t. 


But I understood their concerns. They wanted answers. They didn’t want to risk more lives with the trials. They wanted this whole fiasco to be over. But unfortunately we couldn’t do that. We had to press on with the trials. It was not ideal but this was the only way that we could make everything right again. 


For the most part I had healed from the attack but my head would at times ache but it was nothing that I couldn’t handle. 


Victor was fuming. He was out for blood. He had almost killed the guy who was involved in my attack. Thank the goddess that he hadn’t. Otherwise we would have had a very serious problem on our hands. 


I didn’t want to get out of the car today. The students milled around while Victor and I stayed in the car. 


His fingers threaded through mine and he brought my attention back to him.
