Introduction

Lucia has always known the wilderness as her sanctuary, but when the fires of her heat drive her into the Blue Mountain Pack’s territory when she goes into heat, she’s hunted like never before. Cornered by Aiden and Declan - the fiercely protective twin alphas of the pack - Lucia finds herself tangled in a struggle of dominance, desire, and a desperate need for sanctuary. Fleeing a brutal past and an abusive mate who still haunts her shadows, Lucia has only her spirit and resilience to rely on. Yet under the powerful, watchful eyes of Aiden and Declan, her walls begin to crack. They offer her protection, strength, and an undeniable spark that ignites a passion she can’t ignore. But Lucia’s freedom is short-lived. Her dangerous ex-mate has found her, intent on reclaiming the prize he believes is his. In a fight to save their mate and secure their bond, the alphas will stop at nothing to destroy the darkness threatening her. Only together, bound by love and loyalty, can they conquer the past and embrace a future as one. In the arms of her chosen mates, Lucia has finally found her forever home—but it will take everything she has to protect it.

Chapter 1

Five years ago…

The moonlight spilled through the windows, casting a silvery glow over the abandoned warehouse. Dust motes danced in the shafts of light, lending an ethereal quality to the cavernous space. Lucia's heartbeat thundered in her ears as she stepped forward, her footsteps echoing against the bare concrete walls.

She didn't know why Ryder had asked her to meet him here, in this remote, secluded location. A frisson of unease rippled through her, but she couldn't deny the pull she felt towards him. Their romance had blossomed with a fervent intensity, leaving her breathless and powerless to resist.

Ryder emerged from the shadows, his imposing figure silhouetted against the moonlight. His piercing grey eyes locked onto hers, and she felt a familiar warmth blossom in the pit of her stomach. "You came," he murmured, his voice low and smooth.

"Of course I did." Lucia took a step closer, her body thrumming with anticipation. "What is this place?"

"A sanctuary." Ryder's gaze swept over her, igniting a fire within her that she could barely contain. "A place where we can be...alone." He reached out, his fingers tracing the delicate curve of her jaw.

Lucia shivered at his touch, her pulse quickening. "Ryder, I - "

He silenced her with a searing kiss, his lips claiming hers with a possessive hunger. Lucia melted into his embrace, her arms wrapping around his broad shoulders as she surrendered to the intensity of his passion.

When they finally parted, Lucia's eyes were darkened with desire. "What are you saying, Ryder?" she whispered, her voice trembling slightly.

Ryder's thumb brushed along her lower lip, his expression inscrutable. "I think you know, Lucia." He leaned in, his breath ghosting across her face. "We're meant to be together."

Lucia's breath caught in her throat as the gravity of his words sank in. She was right, he felt it too. Fated mates. The realisation sent a thrill of both excitement and trepidation through her. She had only just turned eighteen, and the idea of bonding with Ryder, of committing herself to him for eternity, was equal parts exhilarating and terrifying.

Yet, as she gazed into his eyes, she knew she was powerless to resist, even if she wanted to. Ryder had claimed her heart, and now he was claiming her soul. Slowly, she nodded, her fingers tangling in the front of his shirt. "Then take me, Ryder," she breathed, her voice thick with surrender. "I'm yours."

The soft glow of candlelight flickered across Lucia's face as she stared up at Ryder, their bodies entwined. His fingers trailed feather-light along the curve of her waist, eliciting a shiver that rippled through her. She pulled him closer, savouring the warmth of his skin and the steady thrum of his heartbeat against her own.

"My Luna," Ryder murmured, his voice thick with reverence as he nuzzled the sensitive spot behind her ear. "My fated mate."

Lucia's eyes fluttered shut, a contented sigh escaping her lips. After their whirlwind relationship, this quiet moment of intimacy was everything she'd ever dreamed of.

His lips trailed down the column of her throat, eliciting a soft gasp as he found the sensitive spot where her neck met her shoulder. Lucia arched into him, her wolf stirring with anticipation. "Ryder..." she breathed, her fingers tangling in his dark hair.

With a rumbling growl, Ryder sank his teeth into the junction of her neck, marking her as his own. Lucia's body convulsed with pleasure, the mating bond forged between them humming with ecstasy. She clutched him tightly, her nails dragging down the muscled planes of his back as she bit into his neck and surrendered herself to the primal dance of their union.

As the last vestiges of the moon's silver light filtered through the window, Lucia and Ryder nestled together, their limbs entwined. Lucia traced the outline of the mating mark on her neck, a smile playing on her lips. This was where she belonged - in the arms of her fated mate, her heart full to bursting with love.

Four years ago…

The moonlight streamed in through the grand windows, casting a silver glow over the ornate hall. Lucia stood stiff and resolute, her piercing blue eyes fixed upon the man who now claimed the mantle of Alpha. Ryder's presence commanded the room, his energy casting an oppressive shadow that made the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end.

"This is how it was always meant to be, my Luna," Ryder purred, his voice a seductive whisper that sent a shiver down Lucia's spine. He stepped closer, the intensity in his gaze unnerving. "You and I, ruling this pack together."

Three years ago…

The moon hung high, its pale light filtering in through the tattered curtains and casting an eerie glow over the shadowy bedroom. Lucia sat stiffly on the edge of the bed, her fingers tightening around the rumpled sheets as she stared at the bathroom door. Ryder had been in there for over an hour, the sound of shattering glass and his muffled curses filtering out to where she waited, a sense of dread coiling in the pit of her stomach.

She knew she should leave, should take this opportunity to escape his volatile temper once and for all. But the thought of his hands on her, the sting of his backhand across her cheek, made her body go rigid with fear. No matter how many times she tried, he always found her, dragging her back and punishing her for her defiance.

The bathroom door flew open, and Lucia flinched, her gaze darting away from Ryder's imposing figure as he stalked towards her. She could smell the whiskey on his breath, feel the weight of his predatory stare as he loomed over her.

"Where do you think you're going, Luna?" he growled, his voice dripping with contempt.

Lucia swallowed hard, forcing herself to meet his gaze. "Nowhere. I-I wasn't going anywhere, Ryder."

His lips curled into a cruel smile, and he gripped her chin, tilting her face up towards his. "That's what I thought." His thumb brushed across her cheekbone, the gesture almost tender if not for the underlying threat. "You know you can't leave me. You're mine, Lucia. Forever."

Lucia's heart hammered in her chest as his grip tightened, her wolf whimpering in submission. She nodded mutely, trying not to break down in tears.

Ryder's gaze darkened with possessiveness, and he pulled her close, his lips crushing against hers in a bruising kiss. Lucia trembled, her own hands lifting to clutch at his shirt, caught in the familiar dance.
