Ava Carter was a 17 year old orphan. She was a member of the Crystal Blue Pack. She was the punching bag in her pack, as people usually walked all over her, literally. She was the weakling, the outcast, the loner who no one ever bothered to get to know.

Until the night of her birthday when she overheard a conversation that left her with no other decision but to leave and never look back. She had never been outside the pack territory, so she had no idea what was lurking in the woods.

She ran into the most handsome man that she had ever seen in her entire life and he uttered one word, four letters that changed her life forever.
"Mine"

Jayden King was the alpha of the North Pack. He was the most feared alpha and was often times referred to as the alpha of all alphas. No one who trespassed on his land, ever lived long enough to tell the tale.

He was a very cold and heartless man. Until the night he ran into someone he had long ago lost hope of finding. 

Now he has her and instead of being the mate that she had always hoped for, he ignores her.

/"Is there anything that you'd like to tell me?/" Jayden asked, looking at me with raised eyebrows.

/"Really?/" He asked again, looking unconvinced.

/"We're out of milk,/" I stated, my answer as more of a question.

/"So, there's nothing that you have to tell me?/" He asked once more.

/"I think we're out of eggs too,/" I said, stuffing my mouth with pancake.

/"Mhm,/" I hummed with my mouth full of pancake.

/"Alright, I'll see you later./" he came over to me and pecked my lips.

He placed something on the island in the kitchen and left. I looked down and saw that he had left his credit card.

/"Do you like it?/" I asked nervously, looking at Katie's reflection in the mirror.
