LOGINWhen a wounded stranger washes up on her land, Saphire doesn’t hesitate—she saves him. But the man she pulls from the river isn’t just anyone. He’s an Alpha—Dante Moretti—and the moment he wakes, he claims her as his mate. After three brutal rejections, Saphire wants nothing to do with fate, Alphas, or the pack that never accepted her. But as vampire attacks grow more precise and deadly, and tensions between packs begin to rise, walking away isn’t so simple anymore. Now watched, judged, and pulled into a conflict she never asked for, Saphire must decide—keep fighting alone, or risk everything by standing beside the one she refuses to want.
View MoreThe room went deadly quiet until the woman looked at Kyle and then back at me. “You’re the guy from the river.” She said. “Alpha Dante Moretti.” I introduced myself. “Why the hell did you call me ‘mate’? I’m not your mate.” She said. “You saved my life. You knew what to do to stop those vampires from killing me. No one knows how to do that.” I said. “My father taught me.” She said. “Your father?” I said confused. “Her father was the great Samuel Matthews.” Kyle said in a condescending way. “Holy shit. Everyone knows about your father. He was the best vampire hunter we’ve ever seen.” I said. “And he also knew how to follow the rules.” Kyle said. “Do you ever get sick of listening to your own voice?” She asked looking at Kyle which caused his jaw to flex. Wow. She’s definitely got guts to stand up to her Alpha like that. But she could also just be pissed because she’s been detained for a bullshit reason. “What do you want?” She asked. “What’s your name?” I asked.
DANTE POVTravis got me back to the pack hospital where they stitched me up and made sure that all my vitals were fine. They wanted me to stay in the hospital but I was adament that I was leaving. When I got back to the packhouse Travis was waiting for me and we went into my office. “Have you contacted Alpha Kyle yet?” I asked as I sat behind my desk. “I left a message. He wouldn’t take the call.” Travis said. I leaned back on my chair and I started thinking about the pack that lived so close but was so far away. “What do we know about that pack?” I asked. “Not much. They make sure of it. He runs a pretty tight ship. He makes sure that everyone in the pack keeps their mouth shut and doesn’t talk to outsiders. No one really knows anything about them. Alpha Kyle became Alpha when he was 22 because his father was killed and his mother is still living in the pack. People believe that she’s still running the pack and she’s the reason why no one knows anything about them. She doesn’t
ALPHA DANTE POVDuring my usual rounds of the grounds was pretty routine. I liked to patrol my own territory to make sure that nothing is out of place. I don’t know why I do it but I always do. Especially with the rise of vampire attacks and I like to make sure that my pack is safe. This day wasn’t like any other day though. I didn’t catch a scent of anything, but as I heard something flying through the air I turned around just in time for it to strike me across the ribs. I fell to the ground and rolled to my side as I saw two vampires step out of the treeline and think they had won the ultimate prize by attacking an Alpha. But they underestimated me. After a fierce battle that severely injured me one of the vampires stabbed me in the chest with a silver blade and I fell back into the river with a strong current and carried me for so many miles. I finally felt something catch my ankle and when I reached down it was a net that looked like it had been placed there on purpose. Almost
SAPHIRE POVWe walked all the way to the packhouse and I saw people standing around everywhere outside. Some warriors were training in the field near the packhouse and other pack members were working around the packhouse like they always did. I walked past everyone as they were staring at me since I had an escort but I refused to look at any of them. When I first went into the packhouse I saw that it was unusually quiet but I could hear people off in the distance. In different directions. Upstairs and down the halls. They were all whispering so there’s no secret to me about what they were talking about. I knew that the warriors hated me because I didn’t bend to their will and do what is meant of me. They hated that I argued the point and I was defiant about everything because I actually spoke for myself instead of letting someone dictate my life to me. And Alpha Kyle doesn’t trust me. That’s always been obvious to me. I’ve never done anything to prove that I am a danger to the p
