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.

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?
