Opal

He glares, an expression so fierce I shrink away.

"I missed you as much as I would miss a lung, I could hardly even breathe without you."

Opal has been through a lot in her life, many things that left her feeling broken and shattered. The only thing that kept her together was her best friend, Keifer.

She knew deep down that Keifer was her mate, and that he would always be there for her, that is until he's taken away.

Ever since Keifer was adopted, he knew that he was different from the other lycans. He didn't know how to channel his anger or his pent up frustration, so he did what any teenager does. He rebelled.

But, Keifer took his shenanigans too far when he almost killed the person he loves most. He's sent away to a military camp for the troubled, separated from his family and mate for years as he learns to control himself.

Keifer's resentment grows.

Opal's strength dwindles.

Both of them are tested when Opal takes things to the extreme and decides to run away, on the hunt to find her mate and mend her heart, no matter what the cost.
