Spoiled Alpha's son, Caleb Grant, is shocked to discover his fated mate roaming lost and alone in the forest. She's human, and she's still a child. Confused and disappointed, Caleb is compelled to protect the vulnerable human, who assumes he's nothing more than a regular wolf. In this tale of fantasy and adventure, Caleb learns to appreciate that soulmates can be friends before they can become lovers, leading a double life as Alpha to the Lakewood pack, and Ruby's beloved pet, Storm. Tragedy forces them apart, and as Ruby reaches her 18th birthday, the time has come for Caleb to reveal his secret. Will Ruby accept the man as she did the wolf, or is their love doomed to fail?

Chapter One

CalebThe ten-second countdown had begun.“Ten . . . nine . . . eight . . . seven . . . six . . . five. . . four . . . three. . . two. . . one. Happy birthday, Caleb!” my guests chanted in unison.The ballroom was filled with celebratory cheers. Then, moments later, the mini-orchestra resumed playing. My mother had been planning this occasion since the day I was born. I wasn’t keen on parties. It was an excuse for people to freeload and snoop around our house. When I become Alpha, I intended to ban any such functions.“Caleb, do you see her? Have you felt drawn to anyone yet?” Aaron asked.Aaron, my comical best friend, was standing around trying to look all sophisticated with his champagne glass like James Bond, dressed in his black Tux, white shirt, and bow tie. He glanced over his shoulder at a group of giggling girls. He was such a flirt, running a hand through his dark-blond hair, his blue eyes sp

Can't believe you left us with that cliff-hanger! Please don't keep us without a resolution. This was amazing and I really want to see the next 'chapter' in Ruby and Caleb's life.

Awesome ... Loves this first love story of Caleb & Ruby even though the ending should be more exciting and also hints of a second book of their story and the kids. Hopefully the second book will be out soon.

This is one of the most brilliant werewolves story ever. It’s sad that this book is underrated. Very captivating and hard to put down.

This is one of the best books I have ever read. It has ever emotion you can think of in this book. It was left off on one heck of a cliffhanger. I am patiently waiting for second part of this story....please we need more.

This is really a story about family. Mothers who love daughters, fathers who love their sons and daughters, and all of the weird complications that come with any family. A truly ‘human’ story with relatable anecdotes and the full spectrum of emotions. What a privilege to experience this journey.

Chapter Two

 Rain fell from the heavens in a dense grey blanket, hitting the ground like a scattering of pebbles. I didn’t care that I left my party early. I wasn’t interested in plastering a fake smile on my face and saying my goodbyes. I couldn’t stomach it. All the patronizing comments, like ‘Aww . . . never mind, Caleb, you’ll find her soon’. And the comforting words that my father would say ‘Patience, son, these things take time. You’re still young’.It was easy for them to say. They had found their mates. Being the youngest out of my friends had its disadvantages, making me the only singleton.I could imagine their words of pity. ‘Poor Caleb, next in line to be Alpha, and with no Luna, too.’How humiliating?I shed my Tux and made for the treeline. It took seconds to rip through my shift. This was my escape from all the meaningless pleasantries tha

Chapter Three

CalebRuby scurried back to the house, and I followed a few minutes later. I recognized the patrol cars that were parked outside, so I stayed hidden among the bushes beneath the sitting-room window.“No, ma’am. I know it’s hard, but I need you to remain calm. Kids do this a lot, and there’s every chance she hasn’t gone far. Can you give me a description of your daughter?” the officer instructed.She was a pack soldier, whom to any human resident, looked like a law enforcement officer. Ruby and her mother were not the only humans here in Lakewood. There were around half a dozen, but most were elderly and had lived here for decades. This also meant that Ruby would be the only human child at her school. As far as I knew, we rarely advertised our rental properties beyond pack boundaries. So maybe this was fate’s way of crossing our paths.“Yes, officer. Here’s a recent photo of he

Chapter Four

Ruby “Okay, fingers on lips, guys.” Our school teacher, Miss Wilson, silenced the class with a shush. I liked Miss Wilson. She was nice. She wasn’t old like my last teacher, who always smelled like toilet freshener. Miss Wilson was young and had a pretty smile. She had blonde curly hair that reminded me of spaghetti. I sat at the table with three other children, picking the PVA glue and glitter from my fingers like a sparkly layer of skin. “Does anyone need to take a bathroom break?” Miss Wilson asked, her eyes scanning the classroom for a show of raised hands. “Okay, kids, put on your coats, then go line up at the door.” Miss Wilson instructed, wincing at the sound of scraping chairs. We all hurried with enthusiasm towards the named coat pegs. I stuffed my arms through the sleeves of my red jacket, then dashed towards the exit. Once the entire class was ready and lined up, Miss Wilson opened the door for a tw

Chapter Five

CalebWalking back from Ruby’s house gave me plenty of time to think. It was going to be hard not to get involved with her business, but the kids at school had to learn to lay off her. After all, she would become their Luna one day.I hated bullies. Just because she wasn’t a wolf, it didn’t give them the right to alienate her at school. I intended to contact the principal the second I got home, but my mother greeted me with a frosty reception as soon as I walked through the door.“Caleb, back in time for dinner? Don’t tell me there’s trouble in paradise already?” Mom teased in a mocking tone.She stood at the top of the stairs, wearing a black Chanel dress with a white lace collar. The finely stitched ma

Chapter Six

The next day...Ruby“Good morning, class,” Miss Wilson welcomed the class in her usual bright and cheerful mood.“Good morning, Miss Wilson, good morning everyone,” the entire class chimed together in the same sing-song way.As soon as I hung up my coat on my named peg, I heard. “Ruby, come and sit with me! No, Ruby, come sit at our table with us.” I felt myself being tugged in two different directions.“That’s enough, children. You’re all to remain in your assigned seats,” Miss Wilson said, putting an end to the chaos that erupted in the classroom.Then came a mixture of disappointed grumbles from the kids who hadn’t got to sit with me.

Chapter Seven

CalebThe months soon flew by. I spent most of my days working at my dad’s company, and most of my nights at Ruby’s residence. Her mom, Jennifer, had prepared a bed for me in the hall. So, I crashed there instead of sleeping at home. I got used to playing the part of a family pet. If I’m honest, I preferred the home-made dog bed more than my actual bed.I’ve received far better treatment as an animal in Ruby’s household than I ever did as a person at home. I had been avoiding my mother like the plague. Dad had taken the news about Ruby well, but Mom hadn’t.Dad respected the mate bond, which was why he’d put up with all of Mom’s crap over the years. She accused me of some disgusting things regarding my contact with Ruby.It didn’t

Chapter Eight

Caleb“Ew, Mom, I’m too old for Disney Princesses,” Ruby complained.She held the birthday card up that had every princess bunched together in a cheesy group pose. Ruby scrunched her nose, eyeing it with distaste. It wasn't like her to act bratty. Her sudden change in attitude made me sit up straight.Jen set down the basket of laundry that she was carrying, then put a hand on her hip.“Jeez, did you go to bed a cute twelve-year-old, only to wake up a stroppy teenager?” Jen retorted.I couldn't have said it better, Jen.Ruby rolled her eyes. “Ugh! I swear Grandma still thinks I’m like, five-years-old or something. I mean, who sends a thirteen-

Chapter Nine

RubyThat’s all my homework rushed. I don’t even care if it’s completed correctly. I mean, what kind of teacher gives you homework, knowing it’s your birthday?It’s like they don’t think we all have a social life after school. What good is history anyway? It all happened in the past. Time to forget about it and move on.“Bye, Mom! I’m going now.” I yelled through the house as I was leaving.I wanted to fly out of the door before she checked inside my school bag.“Come on, Storm. You want to come with me?” I slapped my palm against my thigh to beckon my dog to follow me.He was pretty good at understanding me.

Chapter Ten

Ruby It had been a month since I found out about Mom. Since then, she has had a double mastectomy. It meant both of her breasts had to be removed. Mom’s boss, Mr. Grant junior, heard about her having cancer. He sent Mom to the private hospital here in Lakewood, so she could have her operation straight away. He even paid for her to have reconstructive surgery. Mom was pretty sure that there wasn’t a health care policy when she signed her contract, but her boss insisted that the company would take care of all the medical bills. Mom made a friend while she was in the hospice. His name was Aiden, and he was the doctor Mr. Grant had flown in to help Mom. They’ve been talking on the phone a lot and I overheard mom inviting him to come with us to Washington.
