I made a grave mistake by verbally confronting the Luna of the Ash Clan. In this clan, such a transgression is punishable by death, but I was spared thanks to Lauren’s forgiveness. However, my reprieve comes with a catch: I’m assigned to work with Wolf Shifters on a delivery run to Detroit. The agony of it all.

But trouble is closing in on her, and Fate has placed me right where I need to be to protect her. My primal instincts demand I keep her close, and I have no patience to wait for her to accept her place beside me. So I take her. No one can stop me. She’s mine.
