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 thought about a lot of things on our way back to the house.


Victor hadn’t said a word about what happened. Iin fact, he had barely looked me in the eye since. I could tell he was tired and drained, and what he needed was a warm shower and to sleep for a week straight. 


Right now, I didn’t want to push him anymore than he already had been pushed. I didn’t know where that would lead us.


All I knew was that he was back for now and I wasn’t going to do anything that would push him off the edge. Axel greeted us first, and I gave him instruction to take Victor through the back and to our room where he could shower and rest. Axel paused to look at me, to look at the bite on my arm and the bloodied cloth wrapped around it, but I shook my head at him.
