Jasmine is the first daughter of the great Alpha Bale. Because of her status as a bastard child, she lives a life maltreated scrubbing floors and attending to the needs of her father, step mother, step siblings and the entire pack. But her life makes a drastic turn when she is switched in place for her father’s legitimate daughter to be married off to the Handsome and Cold hearted Alpha Xaden. Xaden is determined to punish Jasmine for the sins of her father who had massacred his entire family, even though she is nothing like her father. Hate slowly turns to desire, fierce passion and finally love. But what happens when Xaden discovers that Jasmine, was planted as a spy to bring his downfall and was not in fact the original princess he was promised to? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Let this be a lesson to everyone. Royal or not, Alpha or Omega," He declares. "You will steer clear of what is mine. In my own territory. In my pack." With that, he tosses the bloodied arm aside and takes Jasmine away from their shocked gaze.
"We heard nothing about the mythical creatures." Hildegard said.
It was true.
It made no sense that when Scarlet had gone missing the emerald remained intact.
That was one of the reasons why Rose had even kept hoping that her little girl was still alive.
And then she had found a piece of the emerald ashore and it further made no sense.
That the emerald had broken off from its holder and the monsters had still been held captive.
Rose laughed. "Maybe there was really nothing to it. Maybe it was just an old wife's tale. After all the story of the monsters are thousands of years old. It was probably just one of the many old lies our ancestors told."
Rose was doing her best to wave it off away.
"But this was something you had believed in." Hildegard said in surprise. "It was something you believed in. What could have happened?"
"I was wasting my time." Rose said harshly.
Hildegard took a step back.
