Violet’s POVAs I stepped through the doorway, I was met by a view that had me in awe. The giant library was three stories high and the exterior wall to the library was floor to ceiling glass windows that looked out over the city skyline, much like the similar view from my bedroom. Bookshelves and books of all ages, shapes and sizes were neatly shelved throughout the giant room. There were big drafting tables and sturdy oak conference style tables in the center of the room. A small refreshment area was located towards the front of the room, near the doors we had just entered. I could already tell that I was going to absolutely LOVE this place.“WOW! Boston…this place is just…WOW!” I was in awe and let him know it.He laughed as he moved into the room with me and shut the door behind him.The library floors were separated by different genres and types of information. Modern and current literary works, educational books, and fictional novels were all housed on the first floor. The sec

The days passed and nothing really had changed. I spent my days in the library reading, cleaning, organizing, and really just making the place more like my home and my personal escape. If I could have moved my bed in here, I would have if they would let me!Boston kept me company most days since he was assigned to be my personal guard. He took shifts with two other guards, Austin, and Nash. I was still getting to know them, but they seemed to be nice enough. It was another Tuesday afternoon in the library. I was curled in the nest I created out of tons of pillows and blankets I had been slowly collecting and adding to the space over the last month. I picked the perfect spot in the far corner of the library. The spot nestled up against the wall of windows that looked out over the vast expanse of trees, mountains, and snow just beyond the bright skyline of the city. While curled up in my nest, I sometimes caught myself drifting into a daydream, imagining myself running through those m

Violet’s POV Sitting at the Alpha table, I sat back happy to give my feet a brief moment of relief. Weston acted like his pants were on fire the minute we “played our part” in front of everyone long enough. He couldn’t wait to drop me off here and run off to his omega. I sat in the corner of the ballroom sipping my glass of ice water, feeling lonely and abandoned once again. I never felt so alone as I did in that moment looking all around me at the abundance, decadence, and happy pack members indulging in the pleasures surrounding them and not one person here was someone that even saw me. I was invisible to them all the moment Weston was not by my side. ‘Who cares if they don’t see us. We’re better than all of them anyway. If we’re invisible, it will be even easier to escape this place when we do!’ My heart fluttered and almost dropped into my stomach after hearing the sultry words coming from someone that was definitely NOT me, in my head! ‘You’re back!’ I was so happy to hear

Violet’s POV I had no idea! Weston caught me so off-guard that I didn’t have time to even react before I was on the ground and receiving kick after kick of his fury. “Weston, please!” I cried out, begging him to stop. He stopped and I exhaled at the reprieve, praying the worst was over. Just as fast as I took the breath, my reprieve was over. Weston yanked me back up by my hair screaming, “You’ll NEVER be my mate!” Tears welled in my eyes. Pain radiated throughout my body and my stomach felt indescribable. Pains I never thought I could feel were felt in my abdomen. “Please…Weston…I’m your FATED MATE!” I cried out. Weston grew a dark gleam in his eyes at that and a sinister chuckle escaped him, “Fated mate? Fated mate?!” He shook me so hard my head started to spin, then he leaned in and whispered, “How could I ever be FATED to a wolfless, worthless, she-wolf?” And with that, he grabbed me by my hair and dragged me down the hall of the corridor we were in to the bathroom. I d

Weston’s POV One Week Later Boston and I were stunned and angered to say the least after figuring out that Violet had outsmarted an Alpha and his Gamma. Not only that, but she was able to run away! It shouldn’t have bothered me this much, to this extent, but it did. I was growing panicked and more irritable to everyone around me. I began to become a hermit of sorts the past week after I realized Violet was a lycan. I started reading more seriously into lycan’s and their history to figure out what makes them so special. If Violet was a lycan, why were no others from her pack lycans? I know their rarity makes them special in and of itself, but before they went nearly extinct, what made them special? It’s been so long since a lycan was seen that even my history books from school wrote about it! That and the fact that lycans could find their mates before their beast ever emerged. I needed to know what kind of a mate the moon goddess had actually given me. Why did the moon goddes
