"I, Rock, Hammers son, reject you, Humble Charity."
Despite knowing no one in the pack would accept a half breed wolf as a mate, the rejection still stung like vinegar on a stab wound.
'"I, Isabella Rivers, reject you, Rock, Hammers son." Izzy held her head high as she used her real name rather than the slave name, even though she knew she'd receive a blow for it.
Rocks light grey eyes widened and his huge body tensed, but instead of belting her, he swayed and his broad, muscular frame buckled at the knees. He hit the ground like a mighty tree being felled, and lay there, his tanned skin pale and his strange, pale eyes staring at her in horror.
"Run."
Rock is proud to be a pure blood, but one of the down sides to it, is that the metaphysical bond to his mate is more powerful than a mixed breed would experience. Humbles rejection hits his wolf hard, and the drive to mate is nearly overwhelming. Instead of the bond breaking, as he'd been told would happen, the need to claim her increases, and his animal takes over for the first time since he was a child.
His father culls half breeds who have mates, in an effort to retain blood purity. Rock is starting to understand why.
Isabella is afraid the Alpha Hammer will find out she's his sons mate and put her down. Rocks erratic behavior isn't helping keep their secret. One minute he's looking at her like he could eat her alive and the next like he hatines her.
Apparently Rocks solution to the problem is to transfer his lusts to another female. When Izzy sees Rocks enter the 'breeding room' with a 'pure' wolf bitch, she discovers the true meaning of pain.
All she wants to do is run from her hot, sexy, cheating mate and his sick, crazy pack, but how can she leave her mother behind to be an enslaved breeder?
Can she save herself and her abused mother? Or will the mate bond destroy them all?All Rights Reserved
