THANK YOU, Wattpad, for the HQ Love Watty Award! Concept: A mysterious young woman flees from her troubled past only to discover it is impossible to escape THE SECRET that haunts her. *PLEASE NOTE: This story was originally inspired by the movie "Sleeping With the Enemy". * * * * * "I would never, Steven," she promised, turning away from him in an attempt to protect herself. "I know you wouldn't," he screamed. Cupping her chin in his hand, he forced her to look at him. "Because I would kill you." His words hung heavy in the air. Sarah's heart sank into her stomach. No matter how many times she'd heard the menacing phrase, she could never get used to it. It had the same affect on her as the first time he'd thrown the ugly words in her face. The familiar sting of bile rose in her throat, and she knew she would deplete the contents of her stomach once she was locked in the safety of their master bath. 'If I make it through this time,' she agonized. Her biggest fear was that one day he would really lose his temper with her. Who knew what would happen then? *This story is an unedited first draft.

He nods as if telling me to continue. “And you are a werewolf and alpha of your pack who are also werewolves.” He again nods. “And I am mated to your son who is the next in line to be Alpha.” I finished “Yes that is all true.” He said “If you wouldn’t mind me asking who is your son?” “Nate Jackson.” He said with an almost laugh. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Prior to her sixteenth birthday Natasha Harris could be described in one word, timid.

Little does she know that he could be the key to her demise or the key to unlock the good in her that was pushed deep down for far too long. Mara is dark and dangerous, but Zander is drawn to her beautiful, indescribable fury.
