When my family finally left our little close-minded pack back in Utah to join a huge progressive pack in Northwest Louisiana, I thought I’d finally be free of the chains of judgment, scrutiny, and homophobia that had tainted my life. But when the Alpha’s son rejects my sister as his fated mate on our very first day at Blackstone Academy, his callousness and stupidity kick off a chain of events that embroils us both in the drama we wanted to avoid.

He was my demon when I was a child. A hellish force protecting me from the evil that hid in the dark and preyed on the weak. But I’m not that innocent girl anymore. And he’s no longer my savior.

What late-bloomer Madison needs is a pack of no strings attached alphas…so why is it the pack’s beta who she’s falling for? Alphas Lucas and Grey want an omega to spoil, steady their pack’s dynamic, and eventually start a family with.

Still reeling from her dangerously late presentation, Madison needs to find a pack—and fast.
