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 wolf's bane leaves the syringe and forces its way into my heart.

In a second, everything goes silent, and I go numb.

The world slows down as I watch Darius pull me away with one hand, and snaps the neck of the wolf with the other.

I watch as half the wolves that gathered lunges at Darius.

They gather him, pinning him down.

But before, he tosses me behind him, so I don't get in the way.

I fall, hitting my head on the floor with a *THUD*

My ears start to ring, and my vision starts to blurr.

I try to stay focused, I try to keep my falling lids up.

Cause I'm afraid what will happen if I don't.

Wolf's bane, its main purpose being to dull our abilities.

But, when it gets into the heart, this much even.

My lids get heavier and heavier, till keeping it up feels like holding up a massive boulder.
