I knew I had to run. *TALIA* For twenty years, I don't know a life outside of the brothel where I was raised; living as a human and hiding as a werewolf in plain sight. Upon finally saving enough money to restart our lives, I find my mother dead, killed in cold blood, her heart ripped out, murdered by one of her clients. Unable to rest until he's dead, I sneak into the murderer's house to avenge my mother's death, only to discover I am mated to his son. I realize the situation before me and, without a second thought, shift into my wolf and jump out of the window, running into the dark night. *ALEX* Well, that's an interesting way to meet my mate, to say the least. It almost isn't surprising—I'm one of those people who attract drama and crazy situations and it's never a dull day in my life. There are hundreds of normal ways to meet a mate and I’m the one that meets mine at my father’s murder scene, my mate being the number one and only suspect. If it weren’t so disturbing, I’d laugh about it. The Moon Goddess clearly has a sick sense of humor. And now—now I must track down this beautiful, mysterious woman with distinct blue eyes that killed my father. *Content Warning: This is a romance with dark themes including explicit adult content, graphic violence, offensive language, and other content some may find offensive.

On the night my dad kicked me out, I drank too much and slept with my “brother” It was a one night mistake. Yet, he proposed and claimed me as his mate, his luna. When I woke up, my mom's body was cold. The color was drained from her half-opened eyes, and I could see no signs of life. My father told me that she purposely drank poison to kill herself. But that was a lie. My mother would never kill herself; she would never leave me. That night imprisoned me. - “It wasn’t a mistake,” “What are you talking about, Jonathan?” I asked him. “Arina, you are my mate. You were born to be my luna,” he said. His face showed no signs of humor. “I wasn’t born to be anybody’s luna,” I shot back. “Arina, I love you…” he spoke softly, still staring into my eyes. I could feel the wolf in me stirring; something that I had never felt before. She was awakening; the fire that burned so deep inside of me was beginning to flare. “Love?” I heard myself saying. “There’s no such thing as love…” After everything I knew about “love”, what my mother went through when she married my father, love didn’t exist. “Give me a chance to prove you wrong. Marry me.”
