“What do you… Abigail, you're my mate.”

“No, I'm not. I have to go,” I say, pulling away again, making him growl.

“No. Don't you dare growl at me, Titus. You and Hunter… You think I'm not aware you've been sleeping around? I'm not interested in someone who wasn't willing to wait for me, okay? So why don't you just… reject me now? Save us both the trouble,” I said, making him growl again.

“What the hell are you talking about, Abigail? I've never been with another woman. I've waited for you. For my fated mate, and it's you!” he says, his eyes turning dark. “Whether you like it or not, ABIGAIL,” he continues, pulling me by the arm against him again and holding me in place, “you are my mate, and I will not reject you. You are mine and will always be mine.”

I have to fight this… I just have to, but can I resist this?

Abigail is forced out of her pack. Her dad sells her to rogues as a teen, forcing her to run away. The notorious rogue King comes to her rescue, allowing her to flee from them. This leaves Hunter Black with a broken heart when he suddenly sees her gone. No one will tell him why the girl he has been madly in love with from a neighboring pack has suddenly gone missing.

As time goes by, Abigail is able to survive, but not without facing countless objections, struggles, and dangers. When she finally gets word of her savior's whereabouts, she wastes no time in going to find him. Instead, she finds Hunter, her mate, and long-lost crush. She tries to fight the mating bond but doesn't succeed, falling deeply in love with him and realizing what a wonderful man he is.
