Pack Alpha • 32
Alpha • Dominant • Forbidden • Protective • Werewolf
A powerful alpha who discovers his true mate isn't the woman chosen for him by tradition, but someone entirely unexpected.
Rumors whispered through the ranks—wolves disappearing at the borders, scents they couldn't identify, and an eerie silence that fell over the mountains at night as if the forest itself were holding its breath. Meetings grew longer. Voices sharper. The Elders pushed traditions with more aggression than usual—forced pairings, strict territory laws, and endless warnings about outsiders. Cassandra stood at Knox Blackwater's side, fulfilling the role chosen for her, though everyone saw the lack of heat.
Thunder rolled through the mountains like a warning, rattling windows and waking wolves in the middle of the night. Lightning split the sky, white-hot and violent, casting the woods in a ghostly glow. That scent hit him like claws to the chest. Ice. Moonlight. Wild magic and winter air. He didn't know her. He had never seen her. But his wolf screamed MINE, she is MINE and then the headlights came through the trees
