Rylie is a legendary Gamma, a female who is tougher than all males, who is feared by all.

But not by Hunter. Hunter is a powerful Alpha, and he wants Rylie as his mate.

But Rylie wonders if Hunter is her one and only true mate.

She wonders if her true mate is out there somewhere, waiting for her.

And she only has one choice.

But when she runs into an injured Rogue on patrol, her world turns upside down.

Is he the one?


The Rogue's Desire

Patrick begins to untie the silver ropes around my wrists.


I feel a wave of relief just being near him.


"Rylie," he mutters, his voice full of emotion.


"You're okay now," he says. "I'm here. I won't leave you."


The burning silver ropes loosen, and I fall forward into his arms.


Patrick pulls me in close to him. He crushes his lips against mine.


It's like fireworks are going off in my body.


It feels like a million years of separation have been overcome, at last.


"Rylie, my beautiful Rylie, I thought I'd never see you again," he whispers.


I cling onto him. I can't believe that Patrick is real. That he's really here in front of me. I can't believe he loves me and has come to save me.


"I love you," I say. "I love you so much."


"I love you more than life itself," he replies.


I pull back with a sudden memory. "The letter! The things I said. Patrick, that wasn't me."
