Every day, I am abused, tortured at the hands of the monster of an Alpha we have. Sophia had been an orphanage ever since she could remember. Both of her parents had died in an accident, but Sophia had never believed this. She counted down the days until she could leave this god-awful pack. Alpha Cyrus was handing over the pack to his son, who was coming of age. It means that he is the new Alpha in training, and you guessed it that means daily torturing by him as well. The beatings were getting worse as the days go by. I swear they are going to kill me before I can get out of this hellhole. I am close to getting my wolf and finding my mate. But I feel I am too weak to get a wolf. The Moon Goddess doesn’t like me. It is like she had turned a blind eye to what happens to me. So I decided a long time ago that I was going to be in charge of my own fate. If my mate was in this pack, would I really be able to reject them? Could I survive as a rogue? I had no other choice if I wanted to stay alive? The only thing that was keeping me going was the idea of revenge on that Alpha and his son. What happens when Sophia becomes of age? Can she really bring herself to reject her own mate from the pack that has never stuck up for her, abusing her on a daily basis? Will she be able to find out who killed her parents, leaving her as an orphan? Is she too hell bent on revenge that she becomes the very monster that she has sort out to kill?
