"He put all his soul in the kiss, all his longing for her, all the fear, the fear that he might lose her. He took her lips and he is kissing them, biting them, sucking them… and the kiss is amplified by mate bond. When they barely manage to break up, Ava is looking into his eyes: "I feel it, Drake. I feel the bond" she says and Drake is smiling at her and bends down to kiss her again." *** I've always been independent, intelligent and a straightforward person. I have pure alpha blood and I have the same power as a man, ok, almost all men. I've never found my mate but I ha a feeling with a warrior from my pack, and I mated with him. At that moment this seemed to be a good idea but at the end of the day I found myself cheated by him and my best friend. Forced by circumstances I become a rogue. But my story is not over yet, because as I said, I never found my mate so maybe there is still something good for me at the end of my struggle. I'm Ava Stone, and now I my be a rogue but take a good look at me. The wolf changes his hair but his habit remains unchanged. I'm still an alpha to the bone marrow, until the last day of my life!

"I am here" Henry whispered. "I am here body and soul and you have no reason to be scared. I will be tender and I promise that if you will feel uncomfortable I will stop and wait for you. But don't be scared of me. We are mates. We are a perfect match made in heaven." *** After barely surviving the brutal destruction of her mate’s pack, Rose Maloney is carried back to the only place that still feels like home—Eclipse Pack. Once a fierce, ambitious warrior-in-training, Rose returns broken, traumatized, and hiding devastating secrets beneath her clothes. Her fated mate, the Alpha she trusted her life with, was not a partner but a tormentor. Now widowed, injured, and emotionally shattered, she faces the terrifying task of rebuilding herself from nothing. But Eclipse Pack has changed too. The Alpha triplets—Henry, Mike, and Jesse—her childhood friends, have grown into powerful, magnetic men who refuse to let her suffer alone. As they care for her wounds, guide her healing, and pull her back into training, Rose begins to sense an intense bond forming between them—one that is deeper, more dangerous, and more forbidden than anything she has ever known.
