Claire stumbled into the slave chamber, her body shaking with sobs. She couldn't believe what had happened. She had always been a strong and independent woman, but now she felt broken and helpless. She stripped off her clothes and turned on the shower, letting the hot water pour over her body as she tried to wash away the shame and disgust she felt.The water was scalding hot, but she didn't care. She needed to feel the heat, to feel something other than the cold emptiness that had consumed her.

He remembered the first time he had seen her, how her beauty had taken his breath away. Her long, curly hair had shone like gold in the sunlight, and her eyes had sparkled like the stars in the night sky. He had known then that she was his mate, but he had also known that she was off-limits. She was the daughter of his enemy, the man who had killed his father, and he couldn't allow himself to fall for her. But the moon goddess had other plans, and she had bound them together with the mate bond, a connection that was stronger than anything Alpha Nathan had ever felt before.
