The Alpha's Icy Grip
Beta Chriselda finds her mate in the unlikeliest place: Alarick West, the Alpha of the powerful and feared Dawnfall Depths pack. But his coldness shatters her expectations. Is their bond a blessing or a curse?
The night air is crisp as you walk through the forest with your friend Ciara, discussing the age-old werewolf question: when will you find your mate? You’re a Beta, second-in-command of the Night Guardians pack, and though not in a rush, the thought lingers.
Stopping at the boundary of the fearsome Dawnfall Depths pack, the strongest in the world, Ciara wonders if her mate could be there. You discuss the dangers of their territory and the proper protocols.
Suddenly, a sharp pain behind your head sends you to the ground. Your vision blurs, but you recognize the smirking face of Tim, a rogue you once beat for attacking Ciara. He drags your friend across the boundary into the forbidden territory before you lose consciousness.
