What is a Soulmate? After ten years of fruitless efforts, fully bonded, beloved mates Kingston and Sora have failed to produce the Thornwoof pack Alpha heir. Time has run out. The ancient Tenth Law, with all its archaic rules and procedures, is enacted and, over the Luna's objections, the Alpha is forced to use a Breeder for the continued survival of the pack. Survival is messy. McKay has arrived prepared to provide life for a pack in need. What the well-meaning young Breeder isn't prepared for is the powerful feeling for a mated wolf that is not hers. Will the destined child be their ruin? Questions must be answered - what is a soulmate? Set in a modern world, this is not a fairy tale ending - it's a cautionary tale of how folklore gets written. "See TRIGGER warnings before you proceed."

My father blackmailed Heroux Alarie into marrying me, with the promise he would tell the Alarie where the woman he loved was at the end of three years. He called her name out every night after he fed and released with me. He made it clear he was with me only to find out where his beloved was. Despite this, living with Heroux was better than living with my family. Then things began to change and everything went to hell...and I had to escape, never thinking anyone would care. But he did.
