Book Description
"So here I lay here in the cold, mentally shattered, physically broken, bleeding out and waiting for the sweet silence and darkness of death to come finally take its hold on me. A lot of things start to run through my head, things I don't want to think about right now. So I force myself to realize and accept one final bitter truth, he never loved me." From the beginning she was told she was nothing but a mutt, an Alphas half-breed bastard. A mistake. Her father only ever did one thing right for her, he made her a machine. Taught how to kill from the moment she could walk, told it was the only thing she'd ever be good at. Her 'pack' might not have been physically abusive to her, no that was her mothers job. But they were mentally abusive and cruel, all because of something she had no control over. Her blood. When she meets her Mate, she prays for the best and expects the worst. Though her image of the worst was nothing compared to what he actually did to her. Unfortunately she didn't see it coming until it was too late. Left for dead, she waits. Cursing the Moon Goddess for her tortured life, when something unexpected happens; or someone I should say. Follow Nova as she finds out who she really is and what she was truly meant for!
