Beta than the Alpha

It's hard enough living in a world where your kind is hunted.

It's even harder when you're an outcast amongst your own kind.

June Aurelius has never been a part of a pack. She grew up with her father; a rebel, an outcast, a lone wolf with a strong lineage of Beta blood.

Alarik is a cold-hearted, self-righteous, controlling, Alpha-to-be with a past that moulded him to rule the world's most powerful and relentless pack.

However, he can't be Alpha until he meets his mate - that's the condition his current Alpha put on him. But he doesn't want to meet his mate. For him, being tied to someone like that is a weakness he doesn't want to be burdened with.

He's also emotionally invested in another relationship.

Read as June and Alarik are forced into one world. As they are ripped away from everything they know, as they suffer deception and torture, and learn from one another to build an undefeatable empire.

Read as they are left with nothing but each other.

The question is, will they stick together?
