Prologue

Things went south when I woke up one morning to find my father murdered and my mother accusing me of the crime. I had to run away from my pack and found refuge in Alpha Camren's territory. My family and pack began to hunt me down. A huntress by the name of Vee was sent after me. But, that was not the only one looking for me. A rogue by the name of Casimir Kriska was looking to help me. I thought at first he had been the killer. I would soon find out how wrong I had been. My memory was in shambles of the night before my father's death. To make matters worse I was starting my first transition into becoming a full fledged werewolf.

I made friends with a local restaurant owner, Nathalie. She showed me there were genuine nice people I could trust and have in my life. I will forever be grateful to have her there in the worst of it. Casimir found me in my misery of transformation. He took me out into the woods and when I awoke huntress Vee was soon going to discover my trail and take us both back to pack Rabidcrest.

My family got what they wanted. I was locked up and still unaware of what fully happened the night of my father's death. I fell in love with Casimir in the cells. As cheesy as that sounds I believed he was not my father's killer and instead believed he was my soul mate. My senses were high from being a fresh born werewolf. Things were off in those cells. But, I remember my wolf being murdered by an ancestor right in front of me. My own sister met with me to tell me she was going to use me to become the king's mate. Things were getting complicated. I knew I had to stop her from doing something stupid.

Rumors were going around that Alpha-and-King Camren was looking specifically for me. Something happened while I was in his territory that made him believe I could be his soul mate. But, how could I have two?

I broke out of prison with Casimir. We got out of the territory while a rogue pack began to attack my family's territory. It was the perfect distraction. I had to convince Casimir to come with me to save the king before my sister could get her hands on him and give him a powerful love-spell.

Camren's birthday ball was hit with a spectacular show. It just so happened to fall on my birthday, a day I usually spent with my twin where she got to blow out the candles and I offered to cut the cake for everyone. But, this one was different because we celebrated the day for Alpha Camren. This also marked the death day of my sister.

Camren was Deepfur's Alpha and also the werewolf king. He controlled a powerful territory and had control over my species when it came to politics. My sister had wanted to be his queen and when she found out I was fated to him she decided to do something unthinkable. With the help from our mother she was able to make a love potion. All Camren would have to do is drink it and he would be hers forever. She would be the next queen.

I wasn't able to stop it from happening even though I wanted to do it since he was my king. It originally had nothing to do with the fact we were fated mates. I felt justified in doing so just by his status alone. But, he somehow found out their intentions and shoved her off the balcony for it. I was there to see the whole thing- in her eyes. It was some power I couldn't understand how I controlled. It came and went as it pleased. I have only been able to do it through her eyes alone. Now, she's dead.

Nobody would question if the king killed some alpha's daughter.

He got away with it, in other words.

Camren already took my mother, which fell on the night I saw through Juliette's eyes and thought she was dead in her bathtub. I thought rogues killed my mother. I thought that

s what happened during the rogue attack on my pack. I thought it had something to do with Casimir's father, since they were rogues. But, Camren had people sedate her and brought to his pack house.

I had run out to that same balcony in hopes to prevent her death- or maybe it was because I wanted to see it for myself. It was still unclear. Camren told me he was planning to take her back to my home pack as a surprise gift,

EXECUTION.

I don't know if he still plans to do that after what I put him through last night.

He believes I'm unfaithful.

Maybe, I am.

I don't even know if I fall into that category.

Mother didn't even kill my father. I killed him. But, Camren had thought she was framing me for murder and I didn't correct him on that matter. He was doing it all for me. I remembered the night of my father's death right after leaving my family's territory. It was like the dramatic events of going back there had pushed those reduced memories to the surface.

Sometime after arranging my mother to be brought to his pack house, Camren was able to slip in a replacement in that time frame. Everything is unclear to me on what happened.

Casimir ended up harassing the 'replacement' at the ball last night. It was short- lived of course. He had been stopped by some guards. It was a messy event. It was the commotion that brought Camren to him.

Camren had found out I was his mate- and thinks I betrayed him by mating with Casimir. But, he doesn't know I have two mates. They're both my mates and I don't know how that's possible. I'm still figuring that part out.

So, he tried to kill Casimir.

We were able to run away from the situation due to Casimir's father stepping in and giving us time to escape. We still don't know if he's alive after that. After all, Casimir and his father are from a rogue pack, BlackRidge. That's where we were headed when we stumbled across a battlefield with hardly a man left alive.

Ethan, Camren's beta, was left behind to live. I know something happened between Ethan and Artyom that led to that bloody massacre. I don't know what happened... And, I don't know if I can trust Artyom because of that.

Alpha Artyom who is from pack Silverback was nearby and offered us safe passage through his territory. Which was the closest border we could cross to get out of Deepfur's territory. We took his offer and he put us up in a room in his pack house.

We decided it was better than staying another minute in Camren's territory. That's where we've been since last night, the pack house of Silverback pack.
