For a decade, Devils Lake has lingered in the shadows-now, for a limited time, the original version is returning to Wattpad before disappearing forever. Alison is desperate to escape the anxiety and despair that haunt her. When she meets a man who can silence her suffering with a touch, it feels like salvation. But as his influence over her mind grows, so does her doubt. Is he truly freeing her, or is she surrendering to something far darker? This special 10-year anniversary release is a rare chance to experience Devils Lake as it was first written-raw, unfiltered, and deeply personal. New chapters will be posted every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday until June 21, when the final three will be released together. Early on June 28, this version will be removed from Wattpad for good as I prepare to relaunch the novel with a refined vision, bringing it closer to its true literary and thematic intent.

With her pack at stake, Alastrine is forced to gather courage and persist in the face of danger. Whether it will bring her fortune, is up to fate. Both equal forces with equal passions, tied by the moon and bonded by their wolves. What will happen when they meet? - Alastrine and Orion are two different people. One lives the luxury of an Alpha, with silk sheets and a warm bed at night, while the other struggles to keep warm in the harsh winds of the cold, battling the forces as they try to stay alive within in a world that shuns the alone and deems them unworthy to live. It's no wonder that they'd not see eye to eye when they met, but an unforeseen bond would ultimately bring them together. Everyone carries secrets, but hers might go deeper than he's ever seen. He might be ruthless, but there's an even darker side to it. Their wolves are wild and defiant, both battling for dominance. But only one will stand on top.
