Xavier, the king of all Alphas, has been searching for his mate for nearly a decade and is about to turn thirty, but mates are expected to be found at the age of sixteen in the typical werewolf realm. Every year, balls are organized in various packs to find his mate, but all prove useless, causing him to lose hope and wonder if the Moon goddess ever gave him one. Alyssa, an innocent girl who will turn 16 in a few days, is concerned about leaving her grandmother when she meets her soulmate. Her grandmother is the only family member she has ever known even though they are not related by blood. What will happen when she discovers that the ruler of all Alphas is her mate, and that he is far too mature to be her uncle or brother? Will she accept or reject the bond between them? And also, will she be able to hold her ground or will she crumble as secrets about her identity begin to surface?
