For years I watched everyone in my family find their mates... everyone but me. The heartache became too much, and I decided to leave my pack behind. Blackclaw Manor became my solitude, and I gave up on ever finding my mate. Then one day, she walks in to my forest. Lost, afraid, a true damsel in distress. I can sense her, feel her... I have to have her. I’ll drag her back to my manor and keep her by my side until she understands what we are to each other. **This is a short novella with a lot of steam and dark themes. No cheating and ends with a happily ever after.**
