Rae East has always cast herself off as a girl not worthy of a Mate. With a past of self-doubt and expectations of a hopeless future, her theory crumbles when she discovers she is mated to an Alpha. Not expecting anything from it, Rae finds herself in a confusing situation. Giving no clarity, her Alpha Mate brings her back to his pack with no purpose.

She sinks into herself, lost, alone, and in pain. With a Mate who has no interest in her whatsoever, Rae struggles to find her purpose in the pack and in her own world.

Not knowing if she has a future with the Alpha she can't help but want, Rae must search elsewhere for happiness like she had once planned. But with a taste of the bond she can't help but share, it becomes difficult to move on from the Alpha who holds her heart captive.

Too Beautiful for the Alpha

I improvise, trying to do what seems right, but no anxious feelings are bubbling inside of me. James knows what he's doing, and I don't know if I like that or not. I think I will, but I can't help but wish he was just as inexperienced as I. I hope he doesn't realize I'm an amateur at such things. That girl, the green-eyed ghost must know what's she's doing.

His hand comes up to my cheek, his skin cold and fresh, stealing the warmth from within me. We continue to move gently in unison until he begins to pull away. James' hand brushes past my jaw and falls once we're apart. He looks into my eyes. /"I'll lay down for a bit./"

I move over again and watch as he lays down beside me. He looks calm, tired but relaxed. My scent must be rocking him to sleep, and knowing this makes me happy.
