It has been around twelve years since werewolves have made themselves known. At the age of two, human Ariel Collins was left on the doorstep of an orphanage. No, her parents are very well alive. But since meeting their werewolf mates, both human's agreed to get rid of whatever past they both had; which unfortunately included little Ariel as well. Since then Ariel has never understood and experienced love. Though this would make one bitter and cruel, sixteen year old Ariel turned out to be the complete opposite. Always looking at the brighter and positive side of every situation she learned to be happy on her own. Knowing that once she turns sixteen she'll be eligible to attend the mating ball, where each human and werewolf has the possibility to find their other half. Meet Thane Grey, one of the most powerful, ruthless, heartless and youngest Alphas out there. He never needed nor wanted a mate. His mind was set on the safety and well being of his pack, he doesn't need another responsibility. Though being the age of nineteen and unmated he is required to attend the mating ball. He thought this year would be like the rest, but he was wrong. Credits for cover go to Wild_Forever
