"I could almost hear him, 'Des, what did you do?" in that disapproving tone he rarely used with me. The mere memory of him was enough to break me out of the blood lust. I looked down at the blood on my hands then back to the girl that lay in front of me. Her cold, dead lifeless body. What had I done?" Everybody wants to be a vampire. It's the new craze. They're beautiful, graceful, majestic. Who wouldn't want to be a vampire? Who wouldn't want the crazy, uncontrollable urge to kill? The insatiable need to drink blood? Who wouldn't want to live forever in darkness, never again feeling the sun's sweet kiss? I am a vampire; a newborn, and it's not as glamorous as it's made out to be. It's hard not to lose your mind, it's impossible not to kill, and it hurts like a b*tch. I never wanted this. It might have had something to do with my boyfriend and almost his entire community being werewolves. I would trade anything to not be this thing to be with him again. He and my best friend were all I had, the rays of happiness in my otherwise screwed up life. But then they killed her, those stupid vampires. And I turned. I'm never going to forget the way he looked at me. From love to hate and disgust so quickly. Almost everything I ever loved or cared about was taken away from me. My family, my friends, my life.The one thing that was left to me was my boyfriend. If I hadn't made my first kill that night, he would've been my fiance'. Now, he's trying kill me. He drove me from the last place I had to call home and is hunting me down. My name is Orridhessa Harben. This is my story.

Saying that the Alphas of the two most powerful packs in the country got off on the wrong foot is an understatement. Krystal (Krys) comes home, after getting kicked out of military school because of her fury temper, to find that her brother is constantly beaten and bullied in school by none other than the Shadow Pack's warrior. She blames their Alpha, Paul. It is after all an Alpha's duty to keep their members in check. Paul finds himself drawn to the brown haired "hottie" who gets off her bike, kicks his warrior's ass and attempts to hand him his on a platter as well. Why wouldn't he, she is his mate after all. He finds himself trying to seduce her but... hell hath no fury than a woman's scorn. Two powerful Alphas unwilling to submit to the other as they play a dangerous game. Will their bond strengthen as new forces try keep them apart?
