Katia has always followed the rules, always led a safe life among her pack. But everything changes when the Alpha of the enemy pack chooses her to be his mate.

In an instant, she has a new pack, a new home, and a new Alpha—an Alpha she’s been trained to hate her entire life.

Katia knows that going with the Alpha is her only chance to prevent a war between the packs. 

Can she make this sacrifice to protect her pack?

Can she find a way to escape her new reality?

Can she ever learn to love the Alpha?


Arranged to the Alpha

For now, I have no choice. I follow Brandon out of the cell and through the cave. Torches light the walls. Our footsteps echo in the most eerie way. It feels like we’re in our own world, locked away from everything else. 


"We can't go to the mating chamber tonight," I protest. "I just got here. It's not supposed to happen that quickly."


Brandon laughs. "You’re a funny one, Katia. You're not in a position to make demands.


"You poisoned me. You tried to kill me. I'm not about to lose you or give you another chance to escape. We’re getting married tonight.


“This is all your fault because you did it in front of my pack. You humiliated me. They'll doubt my choice of mate. So, I must do this to show them and you who's in charge."


An image of Brandon and me mating fills my mind. 


"I refuse to mate with you," I said. "Don't think I will. You have nothing to hold over me anymore."
