Blurb: 
Freya Kael has spent her life on the edges of the Whiteclaw Pack, orphaned and outsider with no claim to a name or power. Her life has been one of survival, with no family, friends, or purpose. That changes the day she learns her fated mate is none other than Finnick Logan the strong and feared Alpha of the Whiteclaw Pack. Freya’s heart swells with hope, but her world shatters when Finnick openly rejects her, calling her weak and unworthy of his name. Devastated and cast aside, Freya is forced into hiding.

But Freya soon finds that her fate has much more in store. Alone and fragile, she finds she holds a secret power, one linked to a famous werewolf family long thought dead. This power could tip the balance of the werewolf world. With rival packs seeking her out and her powers getting stronger, Freya must decide whether to rise to this calling or let her hate for Finnick consume her.

As secrets unravel, Finnick finds himself pulled back to Freya, haunted by his past choices and family betrayals. But with a rival pack threatening their survival and an old enemy reawakening, they may have to join despite the pain between them. Can Freya forgive the mate who destroyed her, and can Finnick redeem himself before he loses everything including Freya?

Betrayed By The Pack

When Finnick spoke those words, I instantly felt cold.

I didn't know. But I could feel it.

I turned my head away from him and balled my fists. I felt light, powerful, and rushing too fast. I didn't seem to be connected to the earth beneath me. In my ears, my pulse sounded odd, surging through me more like a force than a rhythm.

Finnick moved in closer and made another attempt at "Freya." He talked slowly. Too cautious.

I flinched. With little recognition of my voice, I said, "I'm fine." The sound was hollow.

To calm the tempest building inside of me, I tried to breathe, but every time I did, my veins throbbed. Uncooked and untamed.

I took a step back, but a shockwave erupted from me the moment my foot touched the floor. A narrow, black crack in the earth stretched out like a web underneath me.
