LOGINEsmerelda Cooper has always felt like an outsider. Marked by two distinct auras and plagued by an undiagnosed illness, she’s been abandoned by her mother and left to carve out a life tending bar while dreaming of a fresh start at university. But fate has other plans. Jake “Ghost” Thompson, a lone wolf shifter and intelligence gatherer, has spent years tracking a rising wave of brutal murders targeting shifters. When he encounters Esmerelda, he instantly knows she’s his mate—but she’s human… or so she thinks. Drawn together by an unbreakable bond, Ghost fights his instincts while Esmerelda struggles to understand the mysterious forces pulling her toward him. Their worlds collide when a violent confrontation awakens Esmerelda’s latent powers. She is no ordinary woman—she is part witch, part shifter, and destined to become the legendary White Wolf, a being prophesied to tip the balance in the supernatural war. As rival packs, hunters, and witches close in, she must navigate a dangerous path of self-discovery, all while caught in an undeniable pull between Ghost and his enigmatic rival, Magnus. With war brewing and her newfound powers making her both a target and a prize, Esmerelda must embrace her legacy before those who seek to control her tear everything apart. But magic comes at a cost, and love may be the most powerful—and dangerous—force of all.
View MoreEsmerelda was in a private room hooked up to countless machines. We stood outside looking through the large picture window, watching the doctors collaborate. The Colonel stormed down the corridor, looking lethal. “Magnus, you’re with me.” I followed him, squeezing Neave so as not to take his abruptness and her dismissal personally.We listened to the doctors’ evaluation. They were human doctors and couldn’t account for her symptoms beyond exhaustion. They would return when the tests were back from the lab. The door closed, and the Colonel gripped me in a hug. “Son. Thank you.” His tears broke mine. We stood embraced in solidarity and grief. A Colonel and an Alpha never show this amount of emotion. This was getting grave. “Any news on Ghost?”“The car was found overturned near an old mine shaft. Esmerelda’s storm probably did the damage. The mine is being searched.” He paused. “How did she contact you?”“She sent me a vision. I saw her storm on the TV. My mate delivered the babies.”“
“There.” Neave pointed to the abandoned campsite. Ghost’s surveying and geological equipment were smashed or torn to pieces. “Holy hell. This is a lot of power.”“I had to talk her out of decapitating every hunter…”“Are we safe?” I avoided answering. I would never lie to Neave. She ignored my non-answer and pointed to a cave. “I would hide in there.”The mouth of the cave was only a few hundred yards away. Short distance for an SUV. A long walk for a pregnant woman. As soon as we parked, Neave hopped out and grabbed her gear. “Bring blankets, water, and the bag of clothes I packed.” She was a doctor first.Screams from the cave made us sprint. Esmerelda was on all fours, clenching her belly. Gale-force winds knocked us about as she cried.“Princess!” The wind died instantly as my voice reverberated against the cave walls. “It’s Magnus. We are here.”“Ghost! Where’s Ghost!” She yelled frantically, searching my face. “Find him. Please, Magnus.” My beautiful girl was covered in dirt and
Neave was cooking dinner in our tiny base apartment. I swiped a few of the red peppers to snack on as she batted my hand away, giving me an opportunity to kiss her. This was our routine most nights. My life was almost perfect. I had found my mate.About five months ago, the Colonel introduced me to the Israeli beauty at a function welcoming the new brass and civilian employees to the base. The air shifted, and the uncontrollable urge to fight every male there prompted the Colonel to evacuate the room. My wolf claimed Dr. Kohen the same night.There is a non-atmospheric storm over Pike County in Kentucky. We have monitored several of these uncharted storms this year, but this one is the largest… The Weather Channel report caught my attention. Non-atmospheric meant witchy.Under the watchful eye of my mate, I called the Colonel, knowing he was in D.C. “Fuck, his phone went to voicemail.”“What’s wrong?” Neave missed nothing. She was by my side before I collapsed. My mind filled with a
As Esmerelda’s belly grew, we took small working trips with Gunnar. I needed him trained enough to take over when the babies were born. Unless her father was visiting, she never wanted us apart. Since her months away as a wolf, her dependency on me has been transparent. The security as a mate, husband, and father-to-be still didn’t alleviate the fear of being alone. I think she didn’t trust her wolf anymore. They would be estranged for another few months, at least until after the babies were born.Esmerelda’s physical health remained healthy throughout the pregnancy. Her mental health was being challenged daily. Her belly was enormous, making her clumsy and constantly hungry. She worried about where I was at all times.Witchy skills had gone dormant while her wolf was forced to slumber. Esme was acting like she was waiting for a catastrophe to happen.“Gunnar and I want to take one more trip. A parcel of land in Pike’s County needs to be surveyed.”“No.”“Baby girl.
