Charlie knew she needed to leave. She knew she was a danger to the pack but her heart wouldn’t let her go.
My heart was hooked by Kane, Johnny and Levi Duke, and no matter my inner battles, I wanted to stay. I wanted to find the truth. I wanted to be part of the pack.
But to do that, I had to follow their plans-ones that involved me figuring out how to undo what the masters had trained me to do, namely, putting my beast in a cage. The Duke brothers pushed me to let her out, even though I warned them that she wanted their blood.
The crazy three had ideas about melding my beast side with my human side, like some afterschool special. I knew the task was near impossible. My beast was wild, untrainable and full of violence.
When put to the test, she’d proved me right, creating chaos by forcing me to bite my uncle, to make me alpha of his clan. Then she made me bite Johnny and Levi, pushing my instincts to make them mine.
All that left was Kane, and he wanted no part in what my instincts demanded. He wanted to do things his way and only his way. That meant a whole lot of people were going to die, including my best friend, Ruby, unless we figured out what my destiny truly was.
We needed to learn what my bite could really do before all hell broke loose and everyone I cared about fell to the most evil werewolf that ever existed...my stepbrother, Sal.
