Lucian Dragos had lived for centuries, and had been on the run for half that time. He was an Immortal Hunter, or had been until his own foolishness had cost him his job. Now HE was the hunted. Peace for immortals and mortals alike was still his top priority, but being a rogue immortal had a tendency to make one doubt their purpose. After nine hundred years, he decides to put an end to things. His pride and his families honor keeps him from simply ending things himself, and giving up had never been his style, so he decides to turn himself in to the Council for termination. But on the eve before his departure to face his fate, a horrible event changes his destination, and he finds himself running again.
"I, Cal River, Alpha of the Climax Night pack reject you, Raven Woods, as my pack's Luna and as my mate."
*****
Raven Woods was born a rogue. She would live her life as a rogue. She would die as a rogue. Nothing much would change about her status. . .unless she found her mate.
She dreamed of finding her mate. I mean, even a stubborn and rebellious rogue like her would love to find her one true love. He could make her happy. He would help her heal from her past. He would pull her out of the darkness her past threw her in.
But that's not the case when her mate, a harsh Alpha, who rejects her and allows her to fall deeper into the darkness. When he comes back, her life seems to spiral more and more and she has to wonder how their story will end.
