This is the sequel (continuation) of After. Hardin and Tessa's relationship will be tested in ways she never expected, but he knew of all along.

The term 'raised by wolves' has never been more accurate. As a baby I was found in the forest, inside the territory of the fearsome Alcaeus Aatu werewolf Clan; led by Jenna Knight. Her beta's, Ace and Hansel, adopted me and I couldn't have asked for better parents; the pack though, well, they left something to be desired. As the only human in a pack full of werewolves, I wasn't welcomed; I was the fat, human outcast. One day when rouges attacked I decided that I'd finally had enough. I left and never looked back, running to England to join the military after a life of being the weak link. After several years serving in the military, life throws me a curve ball and I soon find myself returning home after years away. *Third book in The Mate series. No you don't have to read the previous books.* Cover by IsaSecret.
