Werewolves mate for eternity. But what happens when a wolf doesn't want to mate? In every were-species there is a prince, the most powerful were of that kind. Jaxon Douglas is the prince of werewolves and his pack, Moon Howlers are his confidants and closest allies. However, Jaxon was not like other were-princes. He was one of the only werewolves in the district of White Claw that didn't believe in mates or mating. He believed that mating and falling in love were two different things that would never collide. So it was only natural that he be the first member of his pack to accidentally stumble into his mate. His human mate. A mate that, unlike any other mate, wanted nothing to do with him and never spared him a glance. And like that, the life of Jaxon Douglas, the prince of wolves, was never going to be that same again.
