"The older the bottle, the sweeter the wine, qalbi" When 19 year old Ava was brought along into werewolf territory for a political meeting, she had expected boring smalltalk, a mediocre buffet, and seeing a few normal people suddenly turn into very large dogs. You know, regular daughter-of-a-diplomat stuff. She had not expected Mazhar. 31 years old, and newly accended Alpha, he is utterly devoted to and much too old for Ava, and most of all; dead set on keeping her with him. But it is not only Ava who has reservations to the mating between a high-ranking alpha and a human woman. Still, Mazhar is detirmined to protect her and show her that an old dog can still learn new tricks.

*Slow updates*| currently editing heavily. He needs the spotlight. She wants to disappear. What happens when they're forced to collide? *** After an injury nearly derailed his basketball career, UCLA senior Charlie Murtaugh has one last shot at going pro. Desperate to get back on scouts' radar, he agrees to be the subject of a feature article in the campus paper. What he doesn't expect? Getting assigned a nervous, basketball-illiterate sophomore who clearly wants nothing to do with him. Lorraine Perabo didn't sign up for this. Her first assignment as a journalism intern was supposed to be low-key, not shadowing the most talked-about athlete on campus. Charlie is cocky, intense, frustratingly charming... and completely off-limits. But as forced interviews turn into real conversations-and sparks-they find themselves relying on each other more than either expected. And when hearts get involved, they realise there are no rules when it comes to the matters of the heart.
