“I love him and I have never loved you so if you know what good for you, you'll let me go” I muttered through clenched teeth as I stared into his eyes but his fingers just tightened around my neck, not so much that it hurt but enough to keep me in place as he leaned down close, the tip of our nose touching. “Your mouth is saying something else while your body, your body knows who it belongs to. You'll always be mine and I'll do anything to make sure of that”... ~ Scarlett had never expected that the one who would ruin her life would be her mate, her husband, Alexander Hilton.

When another Alpha comes into the picture and is willing to burn the whole world just to have her, can she resist his charm? When truth, Secrets and lies began to unfold, Scarlett is left with a decision to make. Who will she choose? The Alpha who ruined her life or the Alpha with many secrets?...

Once upon a time, I believed all Alphas were as sick and twisted as my adoptive father, but the Vincent triplets proved me wrong. Because of them, for a moment, I believed I had a chance at happiness, a real family, and a brighter future. However, while we excitedly expected our own child and reunited the packs, the forces of evil watched over each step we took. The greatest happiness turned into a nightmare. We're risking so much, putting so many lives at stake, and I fear our attempts might fade into nothingness. Perhaps I'm asking for too much. My utopian family never existed, and it never would. Everything will crumble and fall before my eyes, and there will be nothing I can do to stop the damnation- the same as I can't stop him from leaving me. BOOK TWO IN THE ALPHAS SERIES can be read as a stand-alone, but for a better understanding, I highly recommend you read book one first. The series: Caught by the Alphas Claimed by the Alphas
