Claiming my mate is the most dangerous thing I’ll ever do. An enemy pack has held me prisoner for years, torturing me every time I misbehave. Now they expect me to fight for them and help them take a she-wolf captive for the same treatment. Like hell I’ll do that. This battle is my chance to pledge allegiance to a more humane pack. The plan is dangerous, but when the she-wolf my pack wants to capture turns out to be my mate, it turns into a suicide mission. Jasmine is worth the risk. She convinces her pack to give me a chance, and I’ve got one shot to gain my freedom and claim my mate. But my old alpha doesn’t take no for an answer. He wants revenge and so do I. And I’ll stop at nothing to keep my mate safe.

Chasing my dream could cost me my mate. For seven years, I’ve been on the run. The only thing that kept me alive was the dream of playing pro football. When I walked onto the Alaska Bloodhounds practice field, I expected to leave in handcuffs, not with a contract. I’ve got one shot to prove myself, and I don’t plan on wasting it. That dream brought me to Jessica. My mate. She hasn’t shifted yet, but I can feel her wolf is close. Can I show her how to be a wolf when I’ve spent so much time denying who I am? When my past catches up with me, it could cost me everything. Football. Jessica. I’ve spent my whole life training for this moment. I won’t let any wolf take it away from me.
