Have you ever pain so raw it feels like your hear is being dragged out of your heart? The type that breaks into pieces you could never find because they are lost to the wind of scorn and shame. Cassandra carries her pain like a weight on her shoulder everyday despite her smiles and jokes, too young to remember what it felt like to have parents before she lost hers to an accident her grandparents do not like talking about she is trying to find the little good life has in store for her. But she is given a brutal awakening when the one person she thought would bring her much needed happiness tosses her aside. 
So Cassandra runs away from it all, she runs far enough to never feel the despair looming behind her. And she runs into the arms of Ray, handsome, cocky, but caring, considerate, and loving. Cassandra is about to find out love works without the mate ties and build bonds with the most unlikely people. Cassandra is about to find the love acceptance she always yearned for in the most unlikely place.

Rogues and Rebound

"How do you know they are Hunters?" I whisper back to Gray, he gives me an obvious look.

"I've fought enough of those scum bags to be able to pick them out in a crowd," he tells me, "And I recognize one of them from the day we rescued you and Cassandra."

I grab his hand in panic, "He could recognize you."

"I know," he growls, his head and gaze focused on the table, "They are probably looking for Ray and Cassandra, I should warn them," he brings out a small phone just as a hand clamp down on his shoulder.

My spine goes tense and the hairs on the back of my neck stands on end as the huge man smiles at us, "Hello," he says in an oddly soft voice, "Mind if I join you?"

Gray growls but the man forces him back into his seat with his hand still on Gray's shoulder, "You gave my men quite the run for their money, Grayson. If you weren't a dirty rogue, I would have recruited you."
