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

This was the first thing Axel told me as he walked into my bedroom the next morning. I found it hard to look at him when he brought the tray of food to my bed and stood there to the side of it, waiting for me to acknowledge him in some form of way. 


I merely nodded my head in thanks. This action, however, wasn’t enough to appease Axel and so he stood as stil as a statue, waiting for me to look at him. 


But still I refused, until I eventually asked, “Was there anything important I missed?”


Axel sighed, moving from the side of my bed to go and open the curtains again. 


It wasn’t because of what I had seen in the forest earlier that night that I didn’t go to the scheduled meeting today. Rather, the fact that I physically couldn’t make it out of bed. The night before had taken more from me than what I had thought originally. Not only that, but the dreams were something of a reckoning to deal with as well.
