Traumas and prejudice are just like genes, handed down, from parents to children, then running through families.
Angelia's family was, by all means, a small one -one sister and a deceased mother- but it was her whole world. Literally.
The sisters lived their life, relying on their mother's wisdom, their only inheritance.
But the world was dominated by wild wolves, and overflooded by crass men, and their mother's first lesson ever is: Anything male is no good.
And for a good reason. Surely, it was. After all, every mother is ought to protect her children.
But she was no longer here, leaving her young daughters, her only fortune of words, and the endless love that couldn't be forgotten.
Angelia and Angela had a hard time after the withering, deadly loss, for long years, but it has just started to ease.
Especially, after they successfully got through 'The PGP' without getting leashed by a horrendous 'mate'.
Hope was a sweet thing, relief is like a refreshingly cold water, and what's better than making mother proud?!
But one of her many lessons should have been more heeded, 'Sometimes, hope is just a delusion, and relief is, in fact, fear in its gut'.
Her mate wasn't a normal one, so it makes sense not to find him in normal places nor in the normal settings.

***
Kaia has always been the outcast of the Red River pack, hoping for a life of freedom away from the control of her sinister leader, Alpha Maverick. But she has limited options, especially with the crushing weight of a containment curse bearing down on her shoulders.
When her pack is unexpectedly raided by revered Alpha Nero Hunt, Kaia is shocked to discover that the powerful Alpha is her mate. Nero has been yearning for his true mate forever, and now that he's found her, he's desperate to fight for her, no matter the cost. Kaia has her secrets, but so does Nero, and the struggle to keep Kaia free from Maverick's clutches and break her curse threatens to tear them apart.
Kaia thought she was done with domineering Alphas, but maybe with this one, she just might keep him.
