His Little Raven Bird (A Werewolf Story)

Raven was a Naturalist wolf, which meant her life was going to be pretty difficult anyways, but to be rejected by the one who was suppose to love and cherish her, that was a new low. Her own mate had chosen someone else over her, it was a cruel joke that the Moon Goddess would probably laugh about for years to come.
But just as Raven was coping with the fact that she was alone and mate less... he came along.
He was a childhood acquaintance from years ago, one that Raven had fought and argued with far too often to call them real close childhood friends. But she would always remember Grayson Black, how could she not with the locket he gave her? That and he was also the future Alpha of the most powerful packs in the United States.
But no one was prepared for the fact that Grayson would be Raven's second chance mate. Hell, Raven didn't even think she would get one.
Why did she feel such a more powerful connection with Grayson then she did with her first mate?
