Rachel has always imagined a future with her true love and mate, Ben. But her world comes crashing down when Lance, the cruel, arrogant Alpha chooses her as his mate.

Right when Rachel thinks matters couldn’t get any worse, she’s blindsided by the ultimate betrayal. Sheila, her best friend, plots not only to steal Rachel’s true love but to have her killed.

Can Rachel find the strength to stand up to both the Alpha and her best friend?

Can she prove her innocence and get a second chance at life in the pack?

And is life worth living if she can’t be with Ben?


The Alphas Obsession

They want to know about Rachel. About where she's gone. They don't know her name, but I know that's who they mean.


The truth is, I don't know where she is. But even if I did, I wouldn't tell them. I would never betray her-- my true mate.


"Tell us!" they say. "You reek of her!"


They know I am her mate. I can see it on their faces. So they should not be surprised by my refusal.


"If you do not tell us, we will kill you," they insist. 


They're going to feast on my flesh and tear me apart.


I will do everything I can not to let them. To get home safe to her. But how can I fight the whole pack?


There's dozens of them, and I am tied up.


They surround me.There's no way for me to escape.


I can feel my heart pumping; there's fear in my veins.


I don't want to die, but I will--happily-- if it means Rachel gets to live.
