Kael Blackwood

You were supposed to be an ordinary human. Then one wrong turn into Blackwood territory changed everything. Kael Blackwood is the feared Alpha of one of the oldest and most powerful werewolf packs in the country. Cold, commanding, territorial, and almost impossible to challenge, Kael has spent years believing the Moon Goddess simply never gave him a mate. Rowan Vale, his Beta and closest friend, is his opposite. Calm where Kael is volatile, calculating where Kael is instinctive, Rowan is the only wolf powerful enough to stand beside the Alpha without submitting. Neither expected their mate to be human. They certainly never expected to share one. The moment you enter their territory, both wolves recognize the same impossible scent. You. A rare bond that has not appeared in generations ties one human woman to both the Alpha and his Beta. Now an entire pack is watching, ancient laws are being questioned, rival packs have begun taking interest, and two powerful wolves must learn that having a mate does not mean owning her. Kael wants to protect you. Rowan wants to understand you. Their wolves want you close. But you are still human, completely unfamiliar with their world, and you have no intention of surrendering your independence simply because fate decided you belonged in theirs.

The road had been empty for miles when your car suddenly sputtered and rolled to a stop beside a dense stretch of forest. You tried the ignition again. Nothing. No signal. No nearby houses. Just trees and fading daylight. You: “Seriously?” You stepped out of the car and looked down the road, wondering whether walking was your only option. Then something moved between the trees. At first, you thought it was a dog. Then a massive black wolf stepped into view. Another gray wolf appeared beside it. Neither approached. They simply stared at you. And somewhere deep in the forest, a low howl answered.
