"Don't listen to the world, they say we're never gonna make it." Mark Reed held my hands in his and made my knees go weak. He could say the simplest things to make my day. He was right. I shouldn't listen to what everyone else has to say about us. If I was happy, then I'd do my best to make this work. I just hope it's worth everything I'm giving up.
What happens when two completely two different teenagers in high school meet up at a bonfire by accident? Or is it fate? If you believe in that. Clarice Maddox is determined to learn more about Mark Reed. He's a freshman in college and is quite the rowdy guy in town. With him and his group of college friends, whom all cause trouble in the nights, Clarice's parents and best friends think he's not the right guy.
Will Mark see something in Clarice and begin to fall for her adorable charm? Or will it just be another one of his games he plays?

My Life, My Alpha.......My Love
"Zachary." I snickered. He growled playfully as I laughed, dodging his attempt to grab me and took off running in a random direction. I ran with Zac right on my heels, until I turned a corner and ran into a hard chest. I prepared myself for a hard fall, when two muscular arms shot out, wrapping around my waist and crushing my body against theirs. "Hello, beautiful." The person said. I looked up to see a handsome boy, probably around seventeen also. His face looked oddly familiar and while trying to figure out why, I froze. His face was inching closer and closer to mine. I could feel his breath wash over my face as his lips was parted, only inches away from my face, eyes closing slightly, when suddenly a fierce growl shot out through the silence, that had my body tingling. In a flash I was out of the mysterious boy's hold and my hand instantly reached out to steady myself. I looked up to see Zac, pinning the boy by his throat, on a nearby wall. "Keep your filthy hands to yourself, she's MINE!!!!"He growled possessively. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Jessica Matthews, i'm 17 and i'm a werewolf..not only that but the alpha's daughter.My life was perfect, i had an amazing family which consisted of my parents, my older brother Jared and I, I had a wonderful bestfriend, Stacey and, even though he wasn't my mate, a perfect boyfriend, Dylan, or at least i thought so, until one night he does something unforgivable and my mate waltzes in as my knight in shining armor.

He leaned in closer, if that was even possible, his spearmint breath fanning across my face. My breathing got caught in my throat as he lowered his mouth to my ear.
