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.

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 only sound in my office was the incessant tapping of my foot against the hardwood floor beneath me. Besides that, nothing else was heard. I had stopped pretending to be occupied with the pages and documents in front of me a long time ago, and now I sat staring at my phone, staring at Tara’s conversation with me and hoping to see those floating three dots beside her name.


It was cutting close to the one hour mark since our last communication. I had told her to check in on me every half an hour, and my mind immediately assumed the worst, given everything that’s been happening around us lately. I knew it wasn’t a good idea to send her and Sima alone, I should have gone with them. I should have at least let a patrol go with them.


I tried calling her but no one picked up on the other end.
