My sister gets into an accident and needs an emergency blood transfusion when I'm six months pregnant. After a round of tests, my blood is the only suitable one. I'm exhausted and too skinny after being tormented by morning sickness. I have to say no. However, my family forces me to do it. I have no strength to resist; I can only beg my husband for help. To my devastation, he stands by and watches me coldly. "It's fine for you to donate some blood since you're so healthy. Queenie isn't the same as you—she has a bright future ahead, so we can't let anything affect that." I pass out after the blood donation. The first thing I do when I wake up is make an appointment for an abortion.

The wolf within me fights for control. The guy who broke my heart keeps trying to win me back. And my life as I knew it is over forever. My name is Alyssa, and I thought I was just an ordinary human girl until supernatural powers started manifesting and a werewolf pack took me in. But the alpha's son Adam ignited a fire in my soul - and a passion in my veins - that I can't resist, no matter how hard I try. Adam promises me a destiny greater than anything I imagined. And pleasures deeper than anything I've ever known. But his anger and violence shattered my trust, leaving me wounded and afraid. I wanted to hate him, but the mating bond between us won't be denied. My wolf knows she has found our perfect match. If only my heart could be mended that easily. An ancient evil is coming for me and my newfound pack. Blood and betrayal lurk around every corner. The only way to survive is to embrace the power within, even if it means sacrificing everything I hold dear. Even if it means sacrificing Adam. The beast within presents me an impossible choice: give in to the mate my soul cries out for, or survive an enemy I may not have the strength to defeat. Do I follow my heart into the fire, or turn my back on passion for the sake of victory? All I know is the storm is coming - and this time, I'm ready to rage. My name is Alyssa, and this is my dangerous love. Come howl with me - if you dare! The moon is rising, the battle is just beginning...and my story has yet to be rewritten under starlight's glow.

“What are you doing?” I heave, my breath hitched in my throat as I watch him slowly unbuckling his belt. “What does it look like I'm doing?” He tosses his belt away and unzips his pants. “I'm taking what's mine.” I gasp loudly when my eyes meet his huge shaft and I clench the sheets, my body flushing warm. “But... you can't.” “I can and I will,” he counters, hovering above me and tracing patterns up my inner thigh until his fingers graze my slit. He lowers his face to mine, his breath hot against my skin. “You became mine the moment you signed the contract. I own you and every inch of your body. And I'll claim it all, starting now.
