At my wedding, I was betrayed. My fiance made me into a laughingstock and left me to be mocked brutally by the guests.
I was shocked, swamped and heartbroken when the Alpha of the enemy pack, the most powerful and desired man in the city came to me.
“Are you here to humiliate me too?” I asked.
“Amber Collins,” he replied softly, and his thumb gently caressed my cheek. “Will you take me as your husband?”
However, not until a long time later, I found out that none of this was a coincidence.

He lays me on my side. “I’ve wanted to mark you for as long as I've known you...” he murmurs as he presses himself harder against my body.
“Wa... Wait...” I gasp.
But it's impossible. There's no way to stop it. It's a force of nature. A nature that I’m all his, body and soul.

Marriage First, Mate Second

“I was afraid that you would say that,” I tell my grandfather with a sigh, “I know that she has some strange fixation on Amber and my children. I just don’t understand why. I don’t recall her ever liking children when I was growing up! It makes no sense to me.” 


August is clearly upset by my revelation about Dora not liking children. Perhaps it is because he knows better than anyone what Dora is capable of. 


“About that,” August says sadly, “I am so sorry for the things she did when you were growing up. The way she treated you. The things she tried to make you do. It wasn’t right. I didn’t know, I truly didn’t. That doesn’t make it right. I should have known, I should have been paying attention, and I’m sorry for that as well. I just never would have imagined that she was, and is, capable of such cruelty. I didn’t see her for who she was.”
