LOGINAfter years of moving from town to town, Reese just wanted peace, a quiet life fixing bikes and staying out of trouble. But trouble came roaring in with the Moon Riders, a deadly werewolf biker gang. Their leader, Jaxon Wolfe, claims she belongs to him. She doesn't believe in fate, but his touch wakes something in her, something wild and dangerous. He says she's his mate. She says he's insane. To Jaxon, Reese is more than a mate. She's the key to saving his pack and ending a blood feud. But Reese refuses to be anyone’s pawn. When secrets about her past come to light, and enemies close in, Reese must choose: run from the world that broke her trust, or fight beside the Alpha who’s willing to burn everything to protect her. One thing is certain, once the wolf claims, he never lets go.

He tracked the movements of the servants below, trimming the plants in the garden on his left. Their motions were delicate as they shaped the foliage, making it into something pleasing to the eye. He watched them without interest, his mind elsewhere.To his right, the warriors trained.The rhythmic clash of swords, the grunts of exertion, the sound of fists hitting flesh, all were the backdrop to his thoughts. The pack was strong, their numbers growing, their skills sharpening. But still, something gnawed at him. A sensation in the pit of his stomach that he couldn’t shake. He wasn't the kind of man to feel doubt, yet there it was, a whisper in the back of his mind.His gaze flickered down to the scene before him, his eyes narrowing in distaste. The warriors moved with discipline, but something was off.
Reese’s POVNight settled over the pack like a blessing as the moon hung high in the sky, bathing the clearing in silver light. Stars scattered themselves across the heavens as if someone had taken their time placing each one carefully, making sure none were missing. The air was cool and the vibes were full.We had survived.That truth still felt unreal but it was true.Spit fires burned in wide circles around the clearing, flames crackling and dancing wildly as if even fire itself had decided to celebrate. Men of the pack danced around them shirtless, their laughter loud and unrestrained. Some moved with practiced steps passed down through generations, others simply stomped and spun and shouted, uncaring of rhythm as long as joy carried them.Barrels of beer, rum, and wine stood open, cups passed freely from hand to hand. Someone had dragged out old drums, their deep, steady beats thudding through the night, syncing with the heartbeat of the pack.Children ran between adults, shrie
Reese’s POVThe first thing I felt was pain.Not my own.His.It ripped through me so violently that I screamed.Jaxon lay on the stone floor at the foot of the platform, his massive wolf form trembling, dark blood pooling beneath him, staining the floors of crypt. The air reeked of iron and magic, thick and choking. Each shallow breath he took felt like a knife being driven into my chest.My senses were sharper. I felt more.“No,” I whispered hoarsely. “No, no, no…”The Bishop stood to his feet with a grunt. His arm was bent in an unnatural way but with one snap of his fingers, it snapped back to normal. His eyes glowed that same terrible ruby red, satisfaction curling his lips into a slow smile as he stared at me."Who knew?" He asked. "Who knew all it took was to kill the dog? I'd have done it earlier."I felt the rage in me build. I could barely contain it."“You see?” he said softly, almost kindly. “This is how it always ends.”It was then something inside me cracked.Not snapped
Jaxon’s POVThe moment I crossed the threshold, my blood turned to ice.The doors slammed shut behind me on their own, stone grinding against stone with a finality that echoed through my bones. The sound reverberated through the chamber, loud and unmistakable.I knew this place.I’d never been here in flesh.But I had bled here in my dreams.The crypt stretched out before me exactly as it had in every nightmare that had haunted my sleep. The same statues lining the walls, faceless wolves frozen mid howl, their mouths forever open in silent screams. The same lamps burning with an unnatural pale flame, casting long, warped shadows across the floor.The air smelled wrong.Old magic. Blood. Rot. Power that had been steeping for centuries.My heart slammed painfully against my ribs.“No...." I breathed.At the center of the room stood the platform.And bound to it was....“Reese.”My voice came out broken. Raw.She was strapped to the stone slab just as I’d seen in my dream. Wrists bound a
