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

“August, are you home,” my husband calls into the silent house, “I’ve been calling but you didn’t answer. Are you there?” 


As we peer into the darkness beyond, my mate and I look at each other in fear. But to our surprise, August emerges from the back door, covered in soil. And carrying a bouquet of roses, clearly freshly cut. 


“Hey guys, what’s going on,” he says, looking at us in confusion, “I’m sorry I didn’t hear you knock. I was gardening.  I wasn’t expecting company. Is everything ok?” 


“No, it’s not,” my husband replies hurriedly, running to the back of the house to lock the door. Following his lead, I lock the front door as well. 


“August, you’re her next target,” I tell him gently, “We spoke to the woman who helped them escape. Sebastian told her that he’s coming to see you. Said you ‘owed him a favor’. That’s why we’re here. You’re not safe here.”
