Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

Book Two in the Dog Days series: Side Story 1.

After his orphanage shuts down and he's sent away to the facility at ten years old, Saide is only neglected and abused. Selected as a 'pet' for an older man who won't even feed him, Saide is barely making it through each day in his fragile world. So when everything changes suddenly and he's ripped away from his Master, all he can do is try to regain what shreds of humanity that might be buried deep inside of him somewhere. But trauma doesn't disappear overnight, and relearning everything about the outside world isn't going to be easy.

But with a caring alpha by his side and a sense of purpose, Saide just might be able to put the past behind him and create a new life for himself. All he has to do is trust.
