"I smelled your heat even from afar," he smirked. "Don't you feel mine? That primal hunger that's making you wish to tear my clothes off right now-" "Shut up!" *** Layla Nightshade never ventured to the world beyond her small town, Mistwood. That is to say her family never let her escape their clutches, worried about her survival as the only wolf child in the pack who hasn't yet felt the call of her wolf. Layla has accepted that being human would be her entire life. However, things take a turn when her father fixes her union with Alpha Knox, the Alpha of the neighbor pack who claims to be her mate. Layla needs a mate to undergo her transformation but isn't ready to accept her fate. She flees instead, accidentally crossing into the territory of Alpha Khaos, the infamous Alpha of the Eclipse Pack. For the first time ever, Layla feels the mate bond tug at her. Yet, she isn't ready to accept being bound to anyone. As Khaos holds her captive, unwillingly to let go, Layla finds herself facing the reality of the wolves and confronting her savage instincts.
