Nicole has spent all her life dreaming of who her mate will be. She spends her days roaming the forest, exploring with her best friend Shelby, imagining the future.

Until one day, Gavin—the Alpha of a neighboring pack—makes an unexpected visit. Nicole has never heard of such a thing happening before. 

And when Gavin finally arrives, he says that he’s here to see Nicole—and that a prophecy foretold their meeting.

Will Nicole fall for the handsome, powerful Alpha? 

Is Gavin her fate?


Promised to the Alpha 

I take time to rest up. I eat plenty of food, drink plenty of water, and sleep. I sleep until I can figure out what to do. I guess part of me is still hoping Caleb will come back before I leave.


By the next morning though, he's still gone. I search the forest around the cabin, but I don't find any trace of him. 


He's not coming back. Or at least not anytime soon.


That breaks my heart, it really does. All I want to do is be with him, but I don't know if I'll ever see him again. I don't know where he is. I don't know if he ever wants to see me again.


But in this uncertainty lies the truth. I have to carve out my own path. I have to chase my own destiny. I can't just wait on Caleb. I have to go after this myself.
