With their own love lives settled, Milo and Katarina become embroiled in a complex web of deceit and lies that has captured Milo's Beta, Leo, in its hold. Not knowing who is his real true mate, and with each bout of confusion combined with a crippling vision for Katarina, Milo must decipher this new situation that is upon them before it turns his mate and his Beta insane.

The Alpha of the Belesone Pack, Milo, is stunned to find that the Elders have chosen a mate for him. At nearly twenty years of age, he should have been mated by now, but although he can sense her, she proves elusive. To discover that the Elders have chosen a mate that is not his true mate, the one he is destined to be with, is bad enough. When he discovers that they have chosen Katarina Torlov, the runt of the pack, as his bride, it's beyond a joke, but Milo soon discovers that Katarina is much more than she seems. *These are the original edits, from pre-publication.*
