Every year Shadow Falls offers its young women to the werewolf shifters in exchange for the town's protection—there is no refusal. This is the second installment of Offered to the Werewolves. Taken against her will, Ariana struggles with the undeniable emotions and physical pull drawing her to the alpha. It doesn't make sense that she should be having such strong feelings, so quickly. Ariana's own dominant vibes clash with Devin's and create an instant rift between them. She doesn't trust him or her heart and she's going to make sure she keeps her distance. Although the alpha enjoys his smart-mouthed mate, he begins to question how he should go about taming her. He doesn't want to change her, but she needs to respect him and his desires at all times; he is her alpha after all. He's determined to earn both her heart and her submission. This is Part II of the 5-part serial, Offered to the Werewolves - prepare for cliffhangers!
