Where The Crawdads Sing Did Kya Kill Chase

Elelira, forced by her uncle into a marriage alliance with the rumored monstrous alpha of the south, was surprised to find on her wedding day that he was actually her mate. Due to a secret she and her late mother kept, he wouldn’t feel the mate bond for two more years, until it was too late. Elelira, on the day she turns 20, the day Lachlan can feel the bond, she rejects him before escaping into the sea. Her freedom is short lived as her quest to find her real father takes her back to her abusive Uncle’s pack, where she is captured and tortured until her death. She hopes that is the end, but as soon as her eyes close, they open again and she is back at the beginning; the beginning of her suffering. She traveled back to the day of her wedding, and has to live through all that pain and torture again. Or so she thinks….. Lachlan was against the marriage to the conniving Alpha Wayne’s niece, fearing he was being trapped and leashed, but he had no grounds to refuse. Elelira was like a temptress from hell, or so he thought. He desired her, but he thought that was just a trick from her uncle. He fought against the desire, holding out for the day he could annul the marriage and find his true fated mate. By the time he realized it was her all along, it was too late. To correct the mistakes of his past, he sacrificed greatly to get a second chance. What he didn’t expect, though, was for her to come back with all her memories of the future from the past as well.

I am an Omega. One day, Alpha Carl Blanchard found me in the Borderlands and took me in. After we formed the mate bond, he spoiled me senseless, never once caring who was watching. Now, everyone was whispering about the cold, ruthless Alpha who treats me—an Omega who used to be a Rogue—like I'm something sacred. They said it defied everything the Moon Goddess ever intended. I used to think he loved me down to the bone, that he just couldn't help showing the whole world how crazy he was about me. But then, I overhear him talking to his close friend. "I'm the Alpha of the Eastlands. I rule ten packs. If I don't paint Daisy as my weakness and my one obsession, how else am I supposed to keep Fiona off my enemies' radar? Turns out every wound I took for him was a damn joke. If that's how it is, I'm done playing Luna of the Eastlands. On my last day there, I made one call. "I'm in. I'll head to the Borderlands and spend the next ten years in closed research on medicinal herbs." When Carl found me gone, he came after me with bloodshot eyes and his pride in ruins. "Daisy… are you really leaving me?"

They would all pay. Cole Vasco had always enjoyed his life exactly the way it was. He loved his beer, he loved his whiskey, and he loved his women. He was a bachelor for life, and he liked it that way. And then she walked into the bar.

All the while somewhere out there, a group of men in a beat-up old pickup truck drove down the road drinking cheap whiskey and loading their guns and hunting for the little bitch that had been asking too many questions in too many towns along the way.
