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.”

I could talk now. The butterfly woman shook her head at me. 


“What?” I asked. “You’re speaking in words I can’t understand.”


I didn’t know why, but I felt the inkling that the woman was smiling beneath the butterfly on her face. She moved and didn’t move all at the same time. A trail of visages followed until it stopped, like a movie rendering slowly in front of me. 


And then we weren’t outside anymore—we were back in the room where Natalie was. She wasn’t crying, and the skin that was falling from her body due to the flames around her had finished turning from dust to particles.


Only half of her face was there now, yet golden dust lingered where the features had been, creating a silhouette of a woman. She was crying golden and flames. 


“What have you done?” she asked the three women in front of her. “Do you have any idea what this will do for the wolves? For our species?”
