The day before my 18th birthday I ran away. I didn't care were I would end up, just as long as it wasn't back home. I knew the moment I went into heat my mate would find me, and that would only bring him death. My parents have a plan to marry me off to another wolf, a soon-to-be alpha of another, stronger pack. They are only in this for power. His true mate has already been killed and I do not wish the same fate to mine. That's why I ran, and I'm not going to stop. I just wish I could have found out their plan before it was too late. Kathleen's parents were never mates, both of their true mates were killed so they could be married to bring together their packs and become even stronger. Now the same thing is about to happen once more. Kathleen's parents want her to be married to an alpha named Randall and if you are asking if he's a nice guy he's not. His true mate, Anna,has already been killed. She was loving, caring, beautiful, and Kathleen's best friend. Her parents will stop at nothing to get their two packs united, even if that means killing every person that get in their way. Oh and did i mention that they were the king and queen? Matt is a 25 year old Alpha of the Black Blood Moon pack. Long name I know but that's just how it is. They hate the royals. They kill anyone, if found guilty, of being a spy or being related to the royals. There is a long story as to why, only he doesn't want to talk about it. When he found his Mate it was the happiest day of his life. He swore to always protect her. But will he feel the same when he finds out who his mate is or will he have to kill her because that's what his pack does?
