He rejected me, and then he realized I was the center of his world. Instead, I got someone even better. Raula I keep my head down. In this backward pack, females rank low, and my family's bloodline puts me among the lowest pack members. It doesn’t help that I’ve never shifted. I don’t mind the late twenties single life, though. No one’s paying any attention as I live my life the way I want. My roomies and I are doing it for ourselves, and if life under Ulfred Kessler is stifling, at least it’s predictable. We can deal. But when nature finally clicks in, I lose my mind. I claim our alpha as my mate. And he rejects me in front of the whole pack. It’s all good. It only hurts when I breathe. I’ll survive. That’s what I do. Who wants an arrogant jerk for a mate, anyway? But the heavens have prepared someone else for me. Damien Kessler is Ulfred's oldest brother who broke away from the Starry Banes pack years ago. He has never liked Ulfred. Damien I left Ulfred to deal with the Starry Banes pack. I gave him all the freedom to live his life the way he wished, but I will make him regret his biggest mistake of rejecting Raula Lockwood. He threw away the best thing that could have possibly ever happened to him. And now Raula is my second chance mate. Even if it means getting back everything that was rightfully mine, I won't let go of my mate when the heavens have given me a second chance.

"I would like that, but you know what I would like more?" she asks, her hand rising to my cheek, stroking my chin, and then up to my temples.

"Hmmm," I hum, wanting her to continue.

She wraps her around around my neck, pulling me closer to her face, and when my lips meet mine, I am lost!

She kisses me with a lot of hunger and passion, I am startled and turned on all the same. I pull her unevenly closer so that her front is pressed flatly against mine. I want to devour her presence. I want to relish the feeling of her body against mine.

I kiss her back feverishly, shamelessly moaning into her mouth, over stimulated by the taste of her mouth.
