It's as if the whole world has faded away, leaving the two of us alone. I don't notice the people around us, it's just the two of us now.

Lily has grown up with tales of the dead Alpha King and Queen engraved into the back of her mind, and aspires very much to live a mated life as wonderful as theirs. Suddenly, one day, her father sends her across the ocean with her twin brother Will, from their cozy pack on the outskirts of Cornwall to a secure hideout for them in America's largest pack, Maple Ridge. This is where she encounters the enamouring Rhodes - her mate and Alpha of her protecting pack - who will stop at nothing to convince her there's a chance for them.Todos os Direitos Reservados1 capítulo
