She desired a simple, tranquil life, but when she was forced to choose between two alphas who were vying to be her mate and learned that one of her relatives was responsible for her parents' passing, her drama couldn't have been less dramatic. "You are a wild and wacky girl. As you are aware. Did your alpha boyfriend set you up for this, or are you just looking to whore off on your own without me around?"
