She wanted a future with the kind of happiness she'd seen so many of her family members found. But something wasn't right. Her future was a blank slate. Was there a way to write her own story? Could she decide her fate and find happiness and love? Excerpt: That's four of my younger siblings mated and married. I thought as I watched Ulie and Ryan feed each other cake. I was happy for them, but I was jealous as hell. I knew I was. I was number seven in the line of now thirty-six. I thought I'd be next after Ethan got mated, but here I was still single. I was also an Alpha I always thought that would be in my favor when it came to mating. I thought I'd have a mate quickly to help me take care of a pack. Dad had given me my choice of places to relocate too when I asked about finally moving out two years ago. I'd chosen to stay in the state but a couple hours away. The small pack I had was wonderful we'd all driven up of the day for my brothers wedding. The property was packed with Lycan's off all kinds. A significant portion of whom I was related too. My look over my happy family was interrupted by a smiling face I knew. I gave an internal groan as I saw him heading my way. A fellow alpha and a junior member of the wolf council. He'd taken over his mothers pack and gotten her spot on the council. He lived not to far from me so he didn't make all the council shindigs but it looked like he'd driven up for this. "Quentin." I greeted as he handed me a glass of champagne. "Shawnessy how are you?" "You know I don't like using my full name." "I'll call you Ness when you call me Quin." he says. I didn't call him Quin because I liked keeping him at arms length. He wanted to get in my pants and I wanted to keep him out of them.
