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 was a voice that was calling out to me from somewhere behind where I was standing. I didn’t bother to look behind me, my gaze focused on the bush of roses before me, on their stems, on their petals, on the ground beneath them that they were stuck in.


Axel came to stand beside me and there was a sense of deja vu, almost, in this situation. I still hadn’t been able to forget the night I saw him in the garden, with his eyes glazed and wandering off to a cosmos I couldn’t see. 


I turned to him now and he was looking at me.


“You hardly can,” he says jokingly. Slapping his hand on my back, he spoke again. “I spoke to Kia recently.”


“Kia?” I asked, my attention now fully away from the flowers that I had been staring at originally.
