Book excerpt: She’s a lone wolf— a rogue. Shadow Hawks learns to keep her head down. That’s how she survives for years until she wakes up in a pack run by a control freak hot-as-sin ruthless Alpha. With a surge of an intense connection, she finds him irresistible. Califf Stone doesn’t have time for a relationship but to protect his pack from a sinister, vicious alpha killing the neighboring packs. Until a mysterious rogue tests his patience, who enjoys defying him. He finds himself craving for her, losing control— no doubt she’s the one. Now she’s got her old pack on her heels, there’s only one person who can protect her— it’s Alpha Califf. And she will do everything, even if she has to bow down and reveal herself. As their common enemy arrives at their doorsteps, he’s ready to break his defenses and protect his mate. But as a royal Lycan and a daughter of a witch, it comes at a price— another faceless enemy targeted her. Shadow did not only lose her wolf but also her healing gift, leaving her powerless and vulnerable. Even if Califf becomes formidable, he’s willing to leave the pack behind, but their enemy is two steps ahead. Will Shadow get her revenge and find a way to get her wolf and gift back? Will they uncover the ugly truth behind their enemy? Or their foe is just right under their noses all along.
