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

I head out of Rosemary's room by 5 in the morning, aiming for Darius'room.

I half expect to see Celine, but since Darius is around, she is absent.

I head downstairs, into the hall and towards Darius' room.

Where I find him sleeping, quite poise actually.

I take one step forward, and, to my surprise, he jolts off his sleep, bearing his fangs and claws.

That is, until he realizes it is me.

"Abigail, you... you're better now." He says, and I can feel genuine concern in his voice.

"I am." I say with a very cold voice, which I am happy for.

"Why, did you return tonight? You could have stayed in your friend's room."

I can't tell why he's being so thoughtful, but I hate that I like it.

"You're my mate, I have to stay by your side any chance I have." I speak like a robot. "Can I?" I ask, gesturing towards the bed.
