Born with a rare gift, Astrid's existence has been shrouded in mystery and danger. As the last of her line, she is the final hope for the werewolf packs. Astrid's life was forever changed when she was rejected by her fated mate, Thane Wolford, the ruthless and cunning alpha of the Lupari pack. Thane's rejection was not only a blow to Astrid's heart but also a brutal awakening to the harsh realities of their world.

Years later, Astrid's life is turned upside down when she encounters Kieran, a werewolf who hated the word mate, a powerful and feared werewolf from the Shadow pack.

Will Astrid find the strength to overcome her past and claim her rightful place as the last protector of the wolf kind, or will the forces of darkness prevail?
I sprinted through the forest, my feet pounding against the damp earth. The silver light of the full moon cast eerie shadows on the trees, making it seem like the forest itself was moving to trap me.
As I ran, the trees seemed to blur together. I was starting to lose hope, to wonder if I'd ever be able to escape Thane's grasp. My heart pounded in my chest, and my breath came in ragged gasps.
Suddenly, I saw it. A border, marking the edge of a new territory. A place where I might be able to find safety, to start anew.
I stumbled across the border, feeling a strange sense of relief wash over me. I was safe, for the moment. But I knew that Thane would never give up. He'd keep hunting me, until he found me.
As I walked deeper into the woods, I stumbled upon a brooding figure. He was tall, with piercing yellow eyes and jet-black hair. He looked like a warrior, a fighter. And yet, there was something about him that seemed...off.
My instincts screamed at me to run, to get as far away from him as possible. But my exhaustion and fatigue got the better of me. I tried to lift myself up, but I lost consciousness immediately.
As I slipped away, I felt the stranger's grip around me. "I've got you," he whispered, his voice low and rough. "You're safe now."
But was I, really?
Kieran's Point of View
I watched as the mysterious woman fell to the ground, her exhaustion and fatigue evident in every line of her body. My instincts screamed at me to be cautious, to not get involved in whatever trouble she was in.
But as I looked into her eyes, I saw something there that gave me pause. She was scared, but she was also fierce. And there was something about her that seemed to call to me, to draw me in.
I knelt down beside her, my hands reaching out to gently lift her into my arms. She was light, almost fragile, and I could feel the weight of her exhaustion bearing down on her.
As I stood up, cradling her in my arms, I felt a strange sense of calm wash over me. It was as if I had been waiting for this moment, for this woman, my whole life.
I carried her back to my chambers, my heart pounding in my chest. I didn't know what I was getting myself into, but I knew that I couldn't just leave her out there, alone and vulnerable.
As I laid her down on my bed, I couldn't help but notice the way she seemed to fit perfectly into the curve of my arm. It was as if she was meant to be there, with me.
I stood back, looking down at her, and felt a strange sense of possessiveness wash over me. She was mine now, and I would do whatever it took to keep her safe.
Just then, I heard a knock at the door. It was my Beta, Kian.
"Kieran, what's going on?" he asked, his voice low and even. "I sensed a strange energy coming from your chambers."
I hesitated, unsure of how much to reveal. But something about Kian's expression told me that he already knew more than he was letting on.
"I found a woman in the forest," I said finally. "She was exhausted and injured. I brought her back here to help her."
Kian's expression turned skeptical. "A woman, you say? What's so special about her?"
I shrugged, trying to play it cool. "Nothing, Kian. She's just a woman in need of help."
But Kian wasn't buying it. I could see the suspicion in his eyes, and I knew that I would have to be careful. I didn't know what she was running from, or what dangers she might bring with her. But I was determined to find out.
As Kian left, I turned back to look at her, watching her sleep. My mind was racing with questions, but I knew that I would have to wait for her to wake up before I could get any answers.
I sat down beside her, my eyes fixed on her face. She was beautiful, with high cheekbones and full lips. But there was something more to her, something that drew me in.
As I sat there, I felt a strange sense of calm wash over me. It was as if I had been waiting for this moment, for this woman, my whole life.
And then, suddenly, Astrid's eyes flickered open. She looked up at me, her expression confused and disoriented.
"Who are you?" she whispered, her voice barely audible.
I smiled, trying to reassure her. "My name is Kieran," I said. "And you are?
"And she stood in silence, maybe she's still in doubt."
I turned to leave, to go and get her some food and water, but as I reached the door, I heard a faint whisper. "Thank you..." I turned back, looking at her, with a mixture of fear and gratitude.
I smiled, trying to reassure her. "You're safe now," I said. "You're under my protection." As I looked at her, I knew that I would do whatever it took to keep her safe, to make sure that she never had to suffer again.
Days passed, and the mysterious woman went back unconscious, her body weak and fragile. I, Kieran, sat by her side, watching over her, and wondering who she was and what had brought her to my lands.
My Beta, Kian, stood in the doorway, his arms crossed, and a scowl on his face. "Kieran, what is she doing here?" he asked, his voice low and even. "Who is this woman, and why is she in your chambers?"
I sighed, knowing that Kian would not be happy about my decision to let her remain in his Chamber. "I found her in the woods, Kian," I explained. "She was injured and exhausted. I couldn't just leave her there to die."
Kian's scowl deepened. "You can't just bring strangers into our home, Kieran," he said. "It's not safe. What if she's a spy, or a threat to our pack?"
I shook my head. "I don't think she's a threat, Kian," I said. "She's just a woman, alone and scared. And besides, I've had her checked out by our doctor. She's clean."
Kian raised an eyebrow. "Our doctor?" he repeated. "You mean, Dr. Elara?"
I nodded. "Yes, I've had her treat the woman in secret. I don't want anyone to know that she's here, not yet, anyway."
Kian's expression turned skeptical. "Kieran, what are you getting yourself into?" he asked. "This woman could be trouble, and you're putting our entire pack at risk by bringing her here."
I stood up, my eyes locked on Kian's. "As your Alpha, Kian," I said. "Don't tell anyone about her. Not yet, anyway. Let me figure out who she is and what she wants. And let Dr. Elara treat her in secret. Please, Kian, just trust me on this one."
Kian sighed, his expression softening. "Fine, Kieran," he said. "I'll keep your secret. But if this woman turns out to be a threat, I'm blaming you."
I smiled, relieved. "I'll take that risk, Kian," I said. "Thank you."
As Kian left, I turned back to the woman, watching her sleep. I had a feeling that she was going to change everything, and I couldn't help but wonder what the future held for us.
The woman stirred, her eyes flickering open. She looked up at me, her expression confused and disoriented.
"Who are you?" she whispered, her voice barely audible.
I smiled, trying to reassure her. "My name is Kieran," I said. "And you are?"
The woman's eyes narrowed, her expression suspicious. "I...I don't know," she said. "I don't remember anything." I lied.
I frowned, concerned. "Don't worry," I said. "You'll remember eventually. In the meantime, you're safe here. You're under my protection."
The woman's eyes locked on mine, her expression searching. And in that moment, I knew that I would do whatever it took to keep her safe, to make sure that she never had to suffer again.
As the days passed, the woman began to recover. She was quiet and reserved, but I could sense a deep strength and determination within her.
I found myself drawn to her, more and more with each passing day. And I knew that I had to find out who she was, and what had brought her to my lands.
But as I looked into her eyes, I knew that I was in trouble
