A debt, a deal, a betrothal, but could he really go through with it?  Yes or No, either way it wasn't going to be easy.

Excerpt:
 I would be twenty five this summer. Twenty five was a land mark year for me specifically, Because when I was ten I'd been betrothed, intended, affianced, engaged, pledged, whatever you wanted to call it. I was supposed to be marrying this idiot this summer. I hadn't seen him since we made the pledge. That had been fifteen years. As a kid he'd had dirty blond hair gray eyes, super skinny and really quiet.

Finding Ryder by istrazivanje81
24 parts Ongoing Mature
Jessica West is a rarity in her world, an alpha female blessed with sight. She has never been able to detect her own mate bond and believes she is mateless. Until she meets Ryder, an alpha heir from the neighboring pack, and her fated mate. The only problem is Ryder has a secret. Can the bond forged in the magic of fate and moon overcome the choices our past self made? excerpt: Anchoring into my skin, I slowly back away from my so-called mate. Distance is necessary. More necessary than breath. In fact I should stop inhaling his f***ing essence that clouds my head and entrances my wolf. "Answer me!" I whisper-scream at Ryder. "Yes." a pregnant pause hangs between us before he speaks again. "I am sorry Jessica. I didn't know. I didn't think it could be like this." His hands move between us, grasping for the invisible bond that ties us through the magic of our existence. His voice is pained. As if it hurts him to speak these words to me. How can he be in pain? How can a wolf choose another, it is beyond comprehension. It goes against our very nature. My mind is reeling. The inside of me is a mass of hurt, anger, frustration and arousal that won't go away. "What did you think? You would just come here, find your mate. Mark and mate her. Me! Mark and mate me, and then what, walk away?" I speak bitterly, spitting my words at him. The look on his face is a sharp slap on mine. A slow realization sinks in, cutting my soul irreparably. Ryder needed to mark and mate his fated mate to transition to full adult male. Without marking and mating ME he would forever stay juvenile in body. He couldn't inherit his alpha title. "Yes." it's a whisper, and yet his voice is so loud in my head, I choke on his spoken word.

"It's not that I don't want you," I tell him softly as I wring my hands together. "Because I do, it's just complicated." "It's not complicated." He states, his voice hard and cold. "We're simply mates. There's nothing complicated about it." My heart flutters at his words, before sinking further into my chest and my skin buzzes with pleasurable electricity, before dulling into a a slight tickle. He's right, but he's wrong and he knows this. "It's not that simple." His head snaps towards me. His eyes darken and widen as his wolf pushes forward. His teeth begin to sharpen into fangs and his nails lengthen into claws. He's shifting. "Are you rejecting me, love?" He questions darkly. ~~~~~~~~~~~ This features characters from my other story "I Won't Give In". Although this is a stand alone book, there will be some spoilers of "I Won't Give In" and it is recommended to read "I Won't Give In" first. :)
