A feral wolf, anonymously known across the country for his brutal murders, meets his fate, when his most recent prey turns out to be the son of the state's county sheriff.
The stranger is Jeanette Myles, a quick-witted red fox, and she becomes the only animal to have ever questioned his ways, and ideals. Caught off guard by her, he becomes entrenched by her unlikely mercy, and is ultimately lead to his capture after choosing to let her live- something he'd never before done for a witness.
But, while logic, and any kind of sense, tells the fox to let the wolf be brought down, her instincts tell her otherwise- drawn in, and irrevocably beguiled by the predator- as she's torn between what's right, and the wild compulsion that haunts her. Will she choose the life she has comfortably lived, since she was brought to the city and domesticated, or will she give in to her primal instincts, and run wild with the murderer that everyone wants dead?
Unruly Souls run amuck, while hearts are broken, and lives are forever changed..

For a moment, Marjorie has everything she has ever wanted: An escape from a fate set in stone... until the Wolf set its dark intentions on her. Now, she is forced to decide: Will she defeat the Wolf or will she willingly be devoured? __________________ The stranger turned to face her. This close, it was easy to see his handsome features. From his high cheekbones to his piercing gray eyes, he was unlike any sully-faced villager. Instead, he wore his beauty with a casual grace, as if he were clueless to the plumpness of his lips or the flat, smooth surface of his chest. "Am I a what?" The man cocked a thick, dark brow up. He pushed his right hand into the pocket of his trousers, but not before Marjorie caught a glimpse of the heavy jewels on his fingers. He drowned in an opulence few villagers could afford. "I take that as a no," she said. "What is your name, stranger?" He looked to her, and then his gaze traveled to where men and women continued to fling themselves around the heat of the bonfire. You don't belong here, she thought.Complete
