Everything I went through was worth it. "Don't worry, mommy's coming," I said in a baby voice hoping to comfort him even though he wasn't crying. My heart dropped in my chest when I saw it was empty. No baby in sight. "Gray!," I screamed loudly like I was getting stabbed over and over again. He ran into the nursery, scanning the area for any danger. "He's gone! Our baby's gone!" His eyebrows furrowed as his eyes softened realising what happened. Just as quick as it came, it vanished and he was back with the icy look in his eye. The one he had when we first met. For a moment, I was afraid of him going back to his old self before dismissing that thought and focusing on my missing newborn son. Don't worry, I'm coming for you, my little bubba...

"You should have learnt not disobey me by now," he snarled. "And you should have learnt I don't do what people say, especially if they don't ask nicely." He brought his lips to my ear "Oh sweetheart, don't forget who you are talking to. I am in control here. You will do what I say. Understand?" "I thought mates were supposed to be equals." Running a thumb along my cheek, he stared deep into my eyes. "Not when your mate is the most powerful Alpha in the world." Leonardo Loren - a notorious womanizer and feared Alpha. He could have anything and anyone he liked. Until he met Ella. Fiercely independent, strong-willed and hugely unafraid, she was was unique. And she was everything he hated. With a kind heart and an abundance of empathy, Ella is in dismay at the murder and destruction he remorselessly commits. So when she learns she is the mate of such a cruel man, she sets about changing him. Determined not to give him what he craves until he is a better man, she stays true to her fierce nature and resists his attempts to domineer her. But as an Alpha, he is stubborn to change and unwilling to listen to a mere girl, furious that she even dares to question him. So he forces her into his pack and tries to crush her spirit. Twisted games, manipulation, dangerous seduction. No tactic is off the table for Leonardo. But will Ella persevere and thaw his cold heart? Or will she crumble under those dark, handsome eyes like every woman before her? This book is intended for 15+ audiences. This is a sample of the full version found on Smashwords :)
