Destiny is not guaranteed. It is not written. It is earned. It is lived. Jade was born to fight, to protect, and to lead. She was born of a bloodline destined to bond with a wolf. It was her right. But as the years passed, and as more blood coughed over her lips, she was awakened to the thought that she was not what people wanted her to be. In a society ruled by tradition, Jade must forge her own destiny. But by doing so, she must break every rule she has ever known, she must leave behind everything she has loved. She must die to her past to find her future. ******THIS IS COMPLETELY UNEDITED. JUST LIKE ALL MY OTHER WORKS, PLEASE IGNORE ALL THE OBVIOUSLY HORRIBLE MISTAKES. THIS IS MY FIRST DRAFT.******

Twenty four year old, Asher 'Ash' Hunter has a reputation as an Alpha who never loses. But by deciding to choose his mate for him, his father has just challenged him to the biggest game of his life. Plagued by rogue attacks, secret plots, and the shadows of war, the Darkmoon pack could do without the added drama. But this is a world in which Asher thrives and, as always, he's several moves ahead. All he has to do is find someone willing play the part of his loving future mate long enough to fool his father and head off his upcoming nuptials... and as luck will have it, he's already met the girl he needs. Assuming he can persuade her to stop hating him long enough to cooperate, of course. It's the perfect ruse. The trouble is, this might turn out to be the one game he doesn't want to win... *** Cover by the wonderful @DeeIsDead *** My story is copyrighted and belongs exclusively to me, please don't use my story, book cover or characters in any way without my permission, thank you!
