The Eclipse's Alpha is dead, murdered, butchered and it's up to his son Jason to find his murderer as well as take over the ruling of the pack.
A hunt is organised and the new alpha finds his mate but little does he know, the mysteries enveloping her. He wants to understand her but she doesn't want to be understood. He wants to love her but she's put up a wall. What is he to do, with his stonewalling mate?!

She stood in front of him and ran him her fingers through the fur of his back. Then she pressed her forehead to his and shut her eyes. Why was she suddenly feeling so emotional? Is this what finding your mate does to you? Opening up her eyelids, she stepped back and uttered a single word, "shift," now she was curious to know who her mate was.
"As you wish," Jason said to himself. And he shifted.
The moment June saw who he was, she felt her world come crashing down. Alpha Jason Harold is her mate?! She was stricken and Jason could see that now, "what's wrong?" He whispered.
She shook her head and stepped back. "No," she croaked.
Now Jason was getting very confused, "what's wrong?" He asked again.
"Is this some kind of joke?" June mumbled to herself, "What sort of cruel joke is this?"
Jason moved to touch her, she backed away. "No, please, don't!"
Why was she reacting this way? Jason was getting confused and angry, angry because he had no idea what was going on. What is wrong with her?!
"This is not possible, no, it is not, how, how, please..." June was so disoriented she wanted to cry. Why was the goddess doing this to her? How can the alpha be her mate?
Jason ran both hands through his hair and cursed under his breath, he was getting more confused, angry, and as though to worsen things, she held his gaze for second, shook her head and ran away. Now he was hurt. His mate just ran away from him. What did she call his finding her? Yes, a cruel joke.
Shifting again, he headed back from whence he came.
"I need to talk to you Elly"
"Why?!"
"I know that you're my mate"
I laughed sarcastically. "What?! Are you trying to make fun of me again like you did two years ago?" I saw everyone flinched at that and Drake had this look of hurt.
"I apologised Elly! Please give me a chance. We're mates after all" he pleaded.
"We. Are. Not. Mates" I said angrily. "Do I smell like your mate?" I questioned knowing he had no answer for that.
"You're hiding it"
"Really!" I looked surprised but that made Drake angry.
"Let's go for sparks then" he tried to grabbed my hand but Josh pushed me behind him.
"Are you trying to touch someone else's mate, Alpha?" Josh asked.
"Josh!" Others shouted and Drake growled loudly, his eyes turning black. And he looked at me with those eyes.
"Just remember Elly! I asked you nicely" with that he turned and stormed out of the library, others following him behind.
