The term 'raised by wolves' has never been more accurate. As a baby I was found in the forest, inside the territory of the fearsome Alcaeus Aatu werewolf Clan; led by Jenna Knight. Her beta's, Ace and Hansel, adopted me and I couldn't have asked for better parents; the pack though, well, they left something to be desired. As the only human in a pack full of werewolves, I wasn't welcomed; I was the fat, human outcast. One day when rouges attacked I decided that I'd finally had enough. I left and never looked back, running to England to join the military after a life of being the weak link. After several years serving in the military, life throws me a curve ball and I soon find myself returning home after years away. *Third book in The Mate series. No you don't have to read the previous books.* Cover by IsaSecret.
