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

"Yes, why else would we be here?" Darius says.

"Well, where do I even begin?" Where do I even begin? And I thought it was already bad enough just bringing the pack up. I try to hold myself firm, while hoping for the best.

The board member delays, and I can sense Darius losing his patience.

"Please make this hasty, I haven't got all day." The urgency in Darius' voice reflects my entire being as of now. I wish we could just leave this meeting, because what comes next is obvious.

"Alpha Darius, many of the pack in this country, are in a state of instability."

"As in, almost every Alpha under you is seeking your…position, on account of rumors spreading amongst them."

"Rumors?" Darius responds, with what seems to be a grimace on his face.

"Yes Alpha, rumors that you…seem to have lost your edge." I can hear caution in the wolf's voice as he utters those words.

Darius on the other hand says nothing.
