Mina Wolf had waited for this moment her entire life. At the night of her eighteenth birthday, she found out that her mate was none other than her childhood best friend Mika Jones. The two had been in love for years so when they turned out to be mates, it didn't come as a surprise to anyone. On the night she was to officially be mated to Mika in front of the entire pack, the pack was attacked. Being the youngest and an unshifted child of the Alpha, it puts her in great danger. Especially when he finds her. Raphael has been waiting for this very moment for a long time. His wolf had been driven mad, thirsty for blood and so had he. When he saw the daughter of the Alpha who took everything from him, he knew he had to act fast, and so, he did. Kidnapping the enemies daughter on the night she was to be mated was easy and fun. But breaking her will be so much better. Mina doesn't know why the enemy Alpha took her or why he hates her so much. All she knows is the pain he inflicts on her mind, body and soul. Raphael doesn't have to kill her to hurt her father. He has other plans, better plans. He's going to bring the Red Blood pack down to the ground and Mina is just going to be collateral damage. But what happens when the little wolf Raphael stole becomes something more than his captive? What will happen if his plan fires back?

My alpha brother seized the rare healing herb I'd spent all my savings on—herbs meant to ease my first transformation—and gave them to her instead. "You're strong enough," he growled. "You don't need such precious herbs." My beta brother snarled with fury, pointing toward the door. "Get out! Don't come back!" I said nothing more, just grabbed my packed bag and left. They assumed I was merely throwing a tantrum, that I'd return in a few days. My brothers, finally free of my presence, took the orphan girl on an international vacation to the Caribbean islands I'd always dreamed of visiting. Many days later, when they returned to the pack, they were shocked to discover I'd accepted an offer from the neighboring pack's Head Healer. The position required fifteen years of isolated herbal research. I could never return home. That night, they fell apart.

Every girl at the age of eighteen, if left unmated, is volunteered for the Alphas Hunt. Hazel is no exception and also the only one who sees it not as a chance to find a strong Alpha to take care of her, but rather as a ceremony that strips you of your free will and sends you out into the woods to be hunted like a deer.
