Alpha's intended, Beta's claim
Cassie Jones is done playing the nice girl.
When she discovers that her boyfriend of seven years is planning a wedding with his mystery girlfriend, she goes berserk.
With the help of Lilith - a mysterious lady (nine-tailed fox) turned friend, Cassie gets even, but getting even doesn't heal a broken heart. And, Cassie just realized she may have stepped on toes and acquired some high-profile enemies. While she is still nursing her heartbreak, she is confronted by a brooding, tattooed hottie who's out Luna scouting for his friend. Desperate to get away, Cassie accepts his wild proposition: to play wife to a prince she barely knew as long as the adventure takes her away from Albuquerque.
Edward might only be a beta, but he is the strongest and most dangerous biker in all of Rivers' pack. Buried in generational debt he's never been able to wriggle free, he parties hard, burns bridges, and lives dangerously — until a chance to liberate his family from debt surfaces at a price. He accepts to take on the task - go to the human world and find a Luna for his best friend.
Edward's first encounter with Cassie ignites an undeniable spark, and what was meant to be a simple mission becomes a complicated affair when the mate bond keeps drawing him to her. Soon, Edward is convinced beyond reasonable doubt that he may be grooming his mate for another man. As they both keep dancing around the fire, Edward realizes that he has two options: let the girl go and save his family from their outstanding debt, or fight for the woman he loves. Despite his choice, Edward knows he'll have to lose one thing, but what? Also, he's about to discover that sometimes love can be a howling wolf in the night.

Chapter: Chapter fourEdward The drive to the inn was an undissolved emotional torture. Every time I shifted gears, the Harley screeched under us causing Cassie's chest to press against my back. The frantic beating of her heart through my leather jacket sent electrifying shivers that traveled down my groin. But worse than that—infinitely worse—was her scent. Beneath the light sound of rain pounding on my full-face helmet and the sharp tang of adrenaline, she smelled like an intoxicating blend of rain-soaked petrichor and something entirely, Cassie. "Pull the bike over, rip off her ridiculous clothes, and mark her right there on the asphalt. Let's make her ours." Jasper paced furiously against the edges of my sanity, clawing at my ribs. You must be out of your crazy mind, Jasper. This is Cassie Jones, Alpha Caesar's intended Luna. Suck that up, boy! And what was that momentary display of vulnerability when I stepped in front of her? I quizzed as I gripped the handlebars until the veins in m

Chapter: Chapter threeCassie I've been told that people see their lives flash before their eyes just before they kick the bucket. My experience was slightly different. I saw pockets of options just before everything went still.When the club's back exit slammed shut behind me, and the heavy metal door locked with a final note, I knew they'd found me.The man who was supposed to be my getaway from hell stepped out of the shadows, blocking the only path to the main street. An emissary from one of my foes, I guessed correctly.I can take him down, I thought, but that confidence dissipated when two shadows straddled him on both sides, predatory grins breaking through their lips.He wasn't alone. And how did I miss the yellow streetlights? No, they weren't switched off. They were all broken.Shit!This happens every damn time I go against my instinct. "Take care of her, my job is done here." The first guy gloated, lighting a cigarette.He didn't drag me here, I strayed on my feet. Stupid, silly, pompous Cass

Chapter: Chapter twoEdward "Twenty fucking thousand short, beta Knox," Max's voice rang in my head. He never calls me by my name, he wouldn't dare. I might be a Beta, but my wolf - Jasper - was larger and meaner than most Alphas, scarred from years of fighting underground pits to keep my mother’s house from being preyed on. The knuckles of Max's right hand were split open, leaking dark werewolf blood onto the top of his desk, but I didn’t reach for a rag. The injury wasn't me. Max had panicked and doomed himself the moment I walked in. It's his fault for sending such pathetic fodders to do his dirty job. His stray wolves were no match for me. "Your old man left a hole three hundred grand deep when he drank himself to death. Winning underground street races on that rusty Harley isn't chipping away the interest anymore." He jeered, flipping through the stack of hundred-dollar bills I had just dropped in front of him. Max was an older Beta, a loanshark from our pack. He had a jagged scar runn

Chapter: Chapter OneCassieNo. I didn’t scream the day I got slapped by the truth. I just stared at the elegant wedding invitation hidden in Damon's suit pocket. It was meant to be a secret and I'd kept it, but not today. Outside, the evening breeze gently kissed my cheeks as it hurried off for its usual busy-rush of the day. My heart pounded like a prisoner caged in a dirt filled dungeon but not in fear. In compressed rage. "Ready?" I asked without taking a side glance. "Let's burn this place down." Lilith scowled dangerously, adjusting the strap of her emerald silk dress. I feared her fury, but what frightened me down to my bones, was mine. With a single push, the mahogany double door cracked open with a loud squeak announcing our arrival just as the clergy dropped the mic. A dozen conversations died. Hats and hairs turned in my direction but I didn't come for them. I smiled the moment my targets looked in my direction. Damon, my boyfriend of seven years, was tying the knot but it w
