“Do I look odd to you?”
My throat tightens up…
My eyes trace the black ink swirls of his sleeve tattoo, and the breeze carries his scent to me. I feel overwhelmed with the urge to touch the markings on his skin, to run my fingers through his dark hair.
Desire, sharp as a blade, slices through me and I’m shocked at myself, unsure of where it came from.
Vanessa thought she was lucky to find her fated mate. But on the day of their ceremony, he chooses her best friend to be his Luna instead. 
He scorns their bond and humiliates her, quickly turning her into the pariah of the pack and ruining her future. Then lures her with an explanation, before nearly killing her. 
She’s saved by Shawn–Alpha of a rival pack–but she’s mistrustful and has to learn to open her heart again. 
Can she be happy with someone who isn’t her mate? And what happens when her old pack decides they want her back?

Despite the physical and mental exhaustion of the past few days, I find myself running to meet him. We find each other halfway, and I throw myself into his arms so hard that he has to take a step back to steady us.
