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 guests arrive at 8, and I stand beside Darius as we both shake all their hands individually, before a maid comes in to show them the dining hall.

I feel rather uncomfortable yet again because stares had been coming my way more often than not.

But it is most awkward when said stares are given by alphas with mates right beside them.

One stare in particular from my head down to my hips made me feel incredibly uncomfortable, that I wished I hadn't worn a gown so tight.

We meet and greet over a dozen wolves, some along with their lunas inclusive.

When we greet that last guest, only a Luna with no alpha this time, we follow her to the dining hall, where Darius takes his seat on his throne, and I take the one adjecent to him.

The seats surrounding the enormous rectangular table are all filled.

Now I finally know their purpose.
