Luciano lives in exile with his father, Lucifer, and what remains of their small band of rogues; his father is a horrid, cruel man who takes delight in inflicting pain on others, even his own son. Perhaps that is how Luciano's mother is dead, and why the group has been exiled to the hills of Italy...
Abellia "Bella" Renee Ercolani is the youngest child and only girl born to Luna and Alessio Ercolani of the Laughing Wolf Pack; she lives a full, happy life and is content to chase her three older brothers around their Pack territory; and those same hills is exactly where she meets Luc, or rather where he finds her.
An instant friendship kindles between the two, even as he takes her back to her family- and he isn't happy about having to leave her, either... The friendship sticks, however, even as they both grow up.
~000~
Luc is moody, lashes out, and wants nothing more than to sleep with the whole female population of Italy; why? Because he's turning 18! He's about to get his Wolf and begin the hunt for his Mate, even as he sneaks into his best friend's room to sing their lullaby. Knowing that getting his Wolf is inevitable, though desperate not to hurt Bella, he steals away the night he turns 18, leaving Bella devastated for the next 10 years.
Bella has managed to move on with her life after Luc left her 10 years ago, but the only reason that she was indeed able to move on is because she knows that one day, she too will turn 18, get her Wolf, and find her own Mate.
Before long, it is indeed Bella's birthday, and her one wish is that Luc would return home to her. If only she knew how close he really was...
Can the two move on from a past of pain, regret, and absence from one another? They most certainly can, especially when their Fates are as twined together as they are.
