She buries herself in college classes and pledging a sorority, where she meets the sexy and charming Bradley Moore. He's everything Carissa didn't know she deserved - and Bradley has his sights set on winning Carissa's heart. Too bad for her, Danny isn't willing to let her go so easily. His obsession turns dangerous, and she'll end up paying the price for not choosing him. Desperate to save herself - and Bradley - she'll do and say anything.

Chapter 1

BOOK ONE: OBLIGATION

"Oh, my God!" Carissa's hands shook as she read and re-read the words on the card she held. "I got a bid." Her heart raced, and her eyes widened as she glanced up at her best friend and college roommate. "I got a bid!" she shouted.

"Me too!" Tiffany shrieked.

Carissa dropped the card, grabbed Tiffany's hands, and jumped around their room, laughing and squealing with excitement. They'd attended a handful of rush parties and had their hearts set on pledging Theta Omega Pi, which was the most elite sorority at Harmony Falls University. And now they'd been officially invited to pledge.

"I can't believe we both got bids," Tiffany said, out of breath. She pushed her long, dark hair away from her face, then planted her hands on her hips.

Last year, as freshmen, they weren't allowed to pledge a sorority, so they'd spent that time researching various groups, and they'd made a promise to each other: they pledged the same sorority together or not at all.

"I know!" Carissa collapsed onto her bed with a laugh. "This year is going to be so amazing."

"Well, we're not in yet," Tiffany said.

Carissa propped herself on her elbows and rolled her eyes. "There's absolutely no reason we won't get in. Stop being so negative."

"I'm not being negative. I'm being realistic."

"Whatever." She tossed a pillow at Tiffany's head, but she caught it mid-air and hurled it back at Carissa. "I have to call Danny and tell him." She rolled over to reach for her cell phone.

"I thought him and Garrett were moving today."

Carissa groaned. "I keep forgetting they're moving off-campus. Must be nice." She tossed her phone to the foot of the bed, then stood. "I'd give anything not to have to live in this res hall."

Tiffany laughed. "Yeah, right. Like your dad will ever allow that. If he had his way, you'd be living at home right now."

She scrunched her face. "Sooner or later, he won't be able to stop me. I'm mean, I'm already an adult so..." She shrugged.

Tiffany didn't respond other than to give Carissa a disbelieving look. Carissa ignored her friend and busied herself with gathering a towel and her shower caddy so she could start getting ready for tonight. Their first pledge meeting started promptly at 6:00 p.m., which meant she had a little over an hour.

"Hey, I'm gonna run down to the cafeteria and grab some food. Want anything?" Tiffany shoved her phone into her back pocket, her wallet and keys clutched in her hand.

"I'd devour a slice of pizza right about now," Carissa said, opening the door. "Want some money?"

Tiffany waved off her question. "Be back in a few." She disappeared down the hall.

By the time Carissa finished showering and returned to her room, Tiffany was back with food. The enticing aroma of sauce, cheese, and pepperoni greeted her, and Carissa's stomach growled. She set her toiletries on her desk, snatched her pizza, and sank down on her bed with her phone. She took a large bite and moaned at the explosion of flavors on her tongue as she aimlessly scrolled through social media.

"What're you wearing tonight?" Tiffany asked while rummaging around in their shared closet.

"I don't know." Carissa chewed and swallowed another bite. "I was thinking either my black Gucci dress or my red, pleated Chanel skirt with the matching jacket. I have a new tank I can wear with it."

Tiffany spun around. "The Chanel skirt with your Coach sandals." She nodded adamantly. "Then I can wear your black Gucci dress." She grinned.

Carissa laughed. "Deal." She polished off the rest of her pizza, then wiped her fingers on the towel she had wrapped around her hair. Her phone chimed with an incoming text message.

Danny: Hey, babe. Miss you.

Despite all they'd been through last year, his simple texts still managed to brighten her day. If only she didn't question every single word he spoke or sent.

Carissa: Miss you, too. All moved yet?

Danny: Almost. Hang here tonight?

She frowned. Since classes ended last semester, she hadn't seen Danny much. He'd gone home to Maine for the summer, and her father had her on lockdown for two solid months. Other than his intense hatred for her boyfriend Danny, she couldn't understand why her father kept her on such a short leash-she'd done everything he wanted. What more could she do to appease him?

Carissa: Tiff and I got bids to pledge TOP!!! First meeting is tonight. Sorry.

She set her phone down long enough to get dressed and apply light makeup. When she picked up her phone again, she had four new texts.

Danny: I'm happy for you.

Danny: I really am. I know this means a lot to you.

Danny: We haven't spent much time together lately.

Danny: A sorority is a huge commitment. Will you still have time for me? Us?

"Are you friggin' kidding me?" Carissa grumbled, brows pulled down in a scowl.

"What's wrong?" Tiffany shimmied the dress over her hips.

"Danny." Carissa sighed. She read his messages to Tiffany. "I mean, I get he's upset because we haven't seen each other much since the new semester started, but he knows how much this means to me." She shrugged. "I just hoped he'd be a little more supportive."

"We all know how crazy the start of a new semester is, and he's been moving all day. I'm sure he's just stressed and doesn't mean to make you feel bad." She slipped the spaghetti straps over her shoulders. "Danny loves you too much to ever hurt you."

"Yeah, you're probably right. We should go see their new place tomorrow."

"I'm good with that plan." Tiffany smiled.

Carissa composed another text, hoping to calm his fears because she really didn't want to fight with him. And, partly, because she was still carrying around a million pounds of guilt for what she'd done-and for the massive lie she was living. Then again, if Danny hadn't done what he did... She shook the thoughts away. Now wasn't the time to dwell on the mistakes they'd both made.

Carissa: I'll always have time for you. I love you. We'll come over tomorrow and spend the day, ok?

Danny: Ok. Love you too. Call me after your meeting?

Carissa: Ofc.

She added several heart emojis and hit send. Hopefully, when they saw each other tomorrow, things would be fine. They always were better in person than on the phone anyway.

Prince Rafe leans over me, holding himself up on one elbow as he gazes at my face. I feel his eyes wandering over every surface from my brow to my eyes, down my nose, to my lips and chin, and then returning to hold my gaze for a second. The small smile at the corner of his mouth makes me think he likes what he sees.
His hand is cool when it brushes a loose curl from my cheek, but I don’t jerk away from him. I have no idea what’s going on. I don’t understand why I’m here. I don’t know what will happen tomorrow. It seems like a lot of powerful people want me—dead or alive. And yet, all I can think about right now is how badly I want this vampire’s hands on my body.


I live in a desolate village on the edge of the Vampire King’s lands. This used to be wolf shifter territory, but now, we are just trying to survive.
When I mess up and find myself in a culling, I know I’m dead. No wolf shifters ever survive these events.
And after the stunt I pulled in the middle of the village, Prince Rafe probably wants me dead.
Is it a good thing or a bad thing when a vampire looks at you like you’re a snack?
Something tells me, once I reach the castle, I’ll be missing my miserable existence in the village.
But then—it turns out I have no freaking idea who I even am, and when the royals start referring to me as Princess Ainslee, I realize my life is about to take a turn—for better or worse.

“Put them on.” I took the dress and the underwear, then I wanted to go back to the bathroom, but she stopped me. It felt like my heart stopped for a second when I heard her order. “Get dressed here. Let me see you.” I didn't get what she meant at first, but when she stared at me with impatience, I knew I must do what she said. I opened my robe and put it on the white sofa next to me. Holding the dress, I wanted to put it on when I heard her again. “Stop.” My heart nearly jumped out of my chest. “Put the dress on the sofa for a second and stand straight.” I did what she said. I stood there completely naked. She examined me from head to toe with her eyes. The way she checked my naked body made me feel terrible. She moved my hair behind my shoulders, gently running her index finger over my chest, and her gaze stopped at my breasts. Then she continued the procedure. Her gaze slowly moved down between my legs, and she looked at it for a while. “Spread your legs, Alice.” She squatted down, and I closed my eyes when she moved to see me from closer. I only hoped that she wasn’t a lesbian or something, but finally she stood up with a satisfied smile. “Perfectly shaved. Men are like that. I’m sure my son will like that too. Your skin is nice and soft, and you are muscular, but not too much. You are perfect for my Gideon. Put the underwear on first, then the dress, Alice.” I had many things to say, but I swallowed them back. I just wanted to escape, and that was the place and time, when I swore to myself I will succeed one time.

Alice is an eighteen-year-old, beautiful figure skater. Her career is just about to climax when her cruel stepfather sells her to a wealthy family, the Sullivans, to become the wife of their youngest son. Alice assumes that there is a reason a handsome man wants to marry a strange girl, especially if the family is part of a well-known criminal organisation. Will she find the way to melt the ice cold hearts, to let her go? Or will she be able to escape before it’s too late?

My life should have been perfect—successfully starting college, with a caring boyfriend and a best friend. Until I discovered the two of them having sex the night before my eighteenth birthday. Then, during my first full transformation, I discovered a terrifying truth: I am the Soul Bond of Derek Stone, the Alpha of the Darkwood Pack.

The problem is, he's the brother of my ex-boyfriend Bradley.

As a lowly Omega werewolf, I have no right to desire a union with a superior wolf, especially this Alpha leader. Derek Stone isn't just the leader of the Darkwood Pack; he's also a formidable business tycoon. His reputation for ruthlessness makes other packs tremble.

But the ancient werewolf law is clear: if a Pack Alpha rejects his Soul Bond, a curse will descend upon us both.

When Derek suddenly hires me as his assistant secretary, I find myself in a dangerous game. Daily close contact makes the wolf inside me excited, while his cold attitude breaks my heart. Is he deliberately torturing me, or is there something more complex hidden beneath his icy exterior?

As the attraction between us grows stronger, I must make a choice: continue to endure this painful connection, find a way to break the Soul Bond, or make the Pack Alpha fall in love with me and accept me as his Soul Bond.

The LCD screen in the arena showed pictures of the seven fighters in the Alpha Class. There I was, with my new name.
I looked strong, and my wolf was absolutely gorgeous.
I looked to where my sister is sitting and her and the rest of her posse have jealous fury on their faces. I then look up to where my parents are and they're glaring at my picture, if looks alone could set shit on fire.
I smirk at them then I turn away to face my opponent, everything else falling away but what was here on this platform. I take my skirt and cardigan off. Standing in just my tank and capris, I move into a fighting position and wait for the signal to start -- To fight, to prove, and not hide myself anymore.
This was going to be fun. I thought, a grin on my face.
