When she fails to turn with the full moon, Ashlynn, daughter of alpha Raiden and hybrid Cecelia, leaves pack lands to make her own future. But doing so brings her to the attention of the Wingless. When her car is driven off the road, despite his misgivings, Cael steps in to rescue Ashlynn from the wreckage. Latent instincts come to the surface. "Mine," Ashlynn tells him. "My mate." But when Cael refuses her, her need to return to the pack leads her into the arms of Elior, who is more than happy to warm the bed of the latest personification of the font. Ashlynn isn't the innocent her mother was. She knows the Other world, and she knows herself. Raiden and Cecelia haven't left their only offspring defenseless, and Ashlynn is more than capable of handling a disgruntled devil, and an amorous vampire. But can they handle her?
