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

There were trees here, upside down, its roots growing upwards toward the moon. 


The ground around me wasn’t earth, though, it was just water. I didn’t know how I managed to be able to stand on it without falling, everything beneath me was just water, and there wasn’t a single soul surrounding me. The ocean beneath my feet and the sky above my head blended together in a cacophony of symphonies. There was a tune being played here that I did not recognise. 


The trees bristled as I walked through their hanging leaves. The branches were malleable to the touches, as though they were true, living things moving and shrinking away from me at the touch. I gripped one of its branches, and it was as though it tried to shake me off. As though I were not meant to touch it. 


“They don’t like being touched,” a voice called out. “Least of all by mortal things.”
