Abigail is the daughter of a once proud but now dying pack, a pack that would do anything to restore their position amongst the greatest packs once again.

But luckily for them, Abigail catches the attention of Darius, alpha of the most powerful and dangerous pack in America. 

She is at once given to him as a bargaining chip more so than a bride, as a means to cement her pack's relationship with that of Darius'.

Now Abigail will have to survive this prison she calls a marriage to the monster wolf Darius, while also trying to suppress her feelings for her true mate Elias.

But this is easier said than done, because amidst finding the secrets to her past, and plotting with her true mate to escape and bring down Darius, she will find herself bearing feelings towards him, and learn everything to be more complex than she initially thought.

And it all starts with Abigail trying to make Darius fall for her.

"I don't know how you got that idea into your pretty head, but Darius doesn't fall in love."

"There's a first time for everything."

"A first time huh?" Darius' voice echoes into my ears.

"You have two months to make me fall for you. But if you fail, I'll kill your best friend Rosemary, her mate, and every member of your pack."

Mated To The Wrong Alpha

The frenzy running rampant within my head is nothing much, but prevalent still.

I try to control my breathing, when I feel a hand on my back, and Celine leaning in.

"Are you alright?" She asks me, which somehow, I find alleviates me ever so slightly.

I take a deep breath, and I feel myself becoming more coherent.

"Yes, I believe I am." I say, straightening out myself.

Celine says nothing more, after a 20 second stare, she turns her sights ahead, acting as though she didn't just show concern for me.

I'm happy she still cares, but I'm upset I can't apologize to her.

The rest of our drive is filled with silence.

Luckily for me, we reach our destination not long after.

A destination I again I'm not sure where it is exactly.

Surrounded by trees, plant life and wildlife of all manner.

I've suppressed my questions for long enough, and now, I can no longer take it.
