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

Axel and I went to the only woman we could trust with this.


“You what?” she asked, her voice stern and unfeeling. 


There was an anger in her eyes I would never have thought she could project towards me, not as her friend, certainly not as her Alpha. But as I continued to stare at her, I knew that it stemmed from a more powerful source than fear of my position.


“Are you insane?” Alexandria was speaking to me now, demanding answers from me, out of love for Tara. That, and only that, was the reason why I was asking this of her.


“You have to be the one to help me,” I told her. “The two of us need to make Tara believe that I’ve moved on from her, and that the bond is broken.”


“Victor—and I say this with as much respect as I am able to muster—you’re out of your f*cking mind. Have you been speaking with Sidus? How do we even know this is going to work? This might be just another one of his tricks!”
