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 

He didn't deserve to die. I wish I didn't have to kill him. It's his sister who truly deserves to die. But I don't even want to kill her.


Why don't I want to kill her? She killed so many people I loved. I should want to kill her for revenge.


But to be honest, I don't want to kill anyone. I hate death. I hate violence. I think that we should all be able to live in peace.


Life is so short, so precious, that it shouldn't be stolen. I wish I wasn’t tangled up in all of this. The deaths need to stop. I need to figure this out. And the only way I can do so is by going to her.


She might try to kill me. And if she tries to kill me, I'll have to fight back. But I hope it doesn't come to that. I hope I can just convince her to see the truth. I need her to let me go.
