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

After my conversation with Hendrix, things took a turn.


That night, I couldn’t shut off my brain.


I didn’t know whether it was the fact that I was lingering on this for too long that prevented me from sleeping or if it was because I needed answers. Whatever it was, it got me out of bed and outside, on my way to the dungeons. 


While walking there, I could barely think of anything else. The night air was so cold I could feel my face losing its warmth. There were leaves crunching beenath my feet as I walked. I stuffed my hands in my pocket to prevent them from freezing before I could even open the door to the cells.


I could barely see him before he called out. I knew he could smell me from the entryway, and so instead of walking toward him quickly, I lingered a tthe door and shut my eyes, steeling myself yet again to face my father’s killer.
