The Alpha Games have ended, but my trials are far from over... I am a half-breed. An abomination. My mother wasn't who I thought she was, and now I am forced to abandon my pack and venture into Wilds Pack Territory. I expect a rural, rugged community. Instead, I find a pack rich in commodities and flush with magic. Living here would be exciting if it weren't for the fact I'm about to mate a male who isn't my fated mate... As I struggle to adjust to life within this new pack, rogue sorcerers continue to unleash rabid shifters on the North American Packs. Fear for my father and former pack consumes me. I want to help them, but I don't know how. The magic within me is locked away tight. I need to unleash it. If I don't, it's only a matter of time before my enemies get what they want—my death. Challenged Mate is the second installment in the Alpha Games Trilogy.
