After an Alpha has given up looking for their mate, and they need a Luna to help run the pack, they will organise an event known as The Whipping. Female volunteers from packs around the country will put themselves forward if they wish to be in the chance of becoming a Luna. These she-wolves would be whipped in front of all the packs, again and again until their backs were red raw and blood covered. The last female remaining would be given the title of Luna as the Alpha would only want the strongest wolf to help run his pack. Most wolves gave up and quit as they couldn't take the pain, but some head-strong females would go until they were no longer breathing. It was an ugly tradition, from years ago. I had never heard of one happening in this day and age...until that day... Until I met him... On the day of The Whipping...

» Whosever name she picked out of the jar, he would become her future husband.« Madison Summers, wealthy heiress of the Grand Seasons Hotel, is getting married. At twenty-one years old. To a man she's never met before. You would think she'd realize this spells the perfect recipe for disaster, but this hopeless romantic strongly believes in fate and its many plans for her. She intends to go through with the marriage, full speed ahead. Who cares if her candidate isn't the most good looking guy out there? Who cares if he isn't exactly the sweet guy that she had envisioned him to be? Who cares if he doesn't really add up to be her perfect Prince Charming? She could learn to love him, right?
