Eron Camden/Aaron Keizer is the youngest son of a rich and powerful Alpha, the only brother of a new Alpha but feels unaccepted and lacking in his pack because he cannot “hear” his wolf though he can shift, transform, and is an excellent fighter. Runs away from home and becomes co-leader of a mafia-like private army of a corrupt, sex-craved governor, then escapes his employer to turn over a new leaf as a lumberjack in a faraway mountain village. There he met his human mate Diwana Wolf, who does not know of his dark past and Lycan line. However, he's at a loss as to how he can admit his feelings to Diwa without exposing his true nature and wicked past. Diwana Armanaz Wolf is a mail-order bride who believes she is cursed, which is why she chose to be a mail-order bride in the first place, but the truth is she’s actually half-foe, her father being one of the strongest tikbalang warriors and most powerful magic users in the planet. Due to a recent epidemic that took the lives of her husband (Mason Wolf), baby boy (Cefano), and both brother and sister-in-law, which she still believes was part of her “curse”, was left with the care of her brother and sister-in-law’s three kids, two girls (Erica and Katya) and a boy (Macky). This came with inheriting and maintaining the large Wolf properties, including the massive former bed-and-breakfast mansion/inn “Oro Vista Alpha). Due to financial and security reasons (Diwa had an unknown and obsessive stalker, who almost raped her in the past.) had accepted Eron as her first boarder, who will eventually be followed by more due to the introduction of newcomers to their village.

Wolf’s Bane: An Outlaw’s Love Story

“So, I felt uncomfortable back then, and it became something more usual, you know? Him being sort of nice, and then being really weird. Sometimes I even got the feeling that he was being possessive with me,” Di tonelessly admitted, her eyes looking far away even while, from time to time, she continued eating another spoonful of soup. 


“That’s quite a story,” Eron said, but more focused on that last part. “Possessive? With you? What do you mean, Miss Diwa?” 


“Well, yeah, he becomes kind of territorial with the other guys who talk to me. I dismiss it as if it’s a joke when it comes from him. Especially when he gets closer while saying weird things as if I was an object that belongs to him. And even more if it’s told by others around me in the lumberyard. And I hear people say things like ‘Oh, don’t get too close to her, you know Mad Max will get madder,’ or something like that but I find it extremely uncomfortable and very awkward, to be honest.”
