 Blurb

Scientist meets passion …

Fabiana was never who she wanted to be. In fact, she doesn’t know who that woman is. A vixen? The broken child? A mixture of the two? All she remembers is what her father forced on her: her only place was a malleable puppet on the arm of a strong male.

Until the ultimate Alpha decides to make his play …

Adonis is a god among wolves, and one of the most powerful men in Encantado—they just don’t know it. His pack keeps to their own and deals in avenues many wouldn’t dare to touch, and he’s tired of ruling alone.

Then he sees her.

The broken princess who needs her crown fixed …

He will help her, put her back together piece by piece. He will help her find the deadly power within, the sultry appeal she has, and the intelligence to take someone’s breath away. She is everything he could have ever wanted, and he was going to make sure she knew it.

Encantado is starting to draw the line, and there is no stopping it … no matter the danger coming.

Chapter One

“You know you’ve lost your mind, right?

Adonis DeLuna, Alpha of the Moonstone Pack, smiled, the sardonic curl to his lips more like a visual growl than enjoyment. “It is what it is."

Raphael shook his head, strands of his sable hair dancing into his eyes with the movement. “She’s … broken.”

Weren’t they all? But it didn’t matter. Without a shadow of a doubt, Adonis knew the mouse of a woman who’d walked in behind Pasquale at the big meeting about Skuld was his mate.

“You didn’t see what I saw, Raph. She’s a lioness, a fucking lioness trapped inside the small mouse because she’s been made to feel that’s where she belongs.”

Raphael scoffed. “I saw a woman cowering with fear. I smelled it a mile away before she even came into the room. Besides,” he shrugged, “wolves don’t like pussies.”

“Oh, the better to eat them.”

The men of the Moonstone Pack were, for lack of a better term, animals. Everyone saw a blissful image of casinos and bright lights, dancing girls putting on performances and easy smiles while they made all your dreams come true.

But underneath it all …

“You’ll ruin her.”

And that was it. Adonis couldn’t really argue with his capitán. To the wolves, they knew Raphael Reta as Adonis’s beta, but he was more—so much fucking more.

“I won’t … well, at least not in the end. Sometimes, you have to break things to build them.”

“You better hope she survives.”

Adonis snorted. “She’s meant to be my mate. My wolf wouldn’t choose a woman who couldn’t handle me.”

Raphael sighed and slid his tall form into a chair. For such a large man, he moved in silence. Learning to live in the quiet spaces between breaths could save a man’s lifeor end it. He was a sicario first, capitán second, and a wolf third.

His gray gaze met Adonis’s hazel eyes. “I’ve called Dominic already.”

Of course he had. Raphael may argue with the Alpha within the four walls of this office, but to everyone else, he always stood in solidarity with Adonis. Getting Fabiana wasn’t a choice; it was a direct order, and there were no other options.

Adonis grunted. “Have they given clearance?”

“You’ll have to deal with her brother.”

Adonis’s eyebrows disappeared into his hair line. That was a surprise. “Why the fuck for?”

“What. You’re supposed to say ‘what the fuck for.’”

Adonis growled at Raph. The Alpha had a particular turn of phrase, always had since he was young, growing up outside the States. Learning English had been a necessity rather than a given. He couldn’t operate his business and not speak the lingo of the country he planned to dominate. Now, at nearly thirty-five, he was one of the youngest leaders to create his own faction of Zetas, La Casa Sangre, when he was only eighteen. Having a stronghold in Encantado was only his launching pad and base of operations.

“It seems Pasquale is Alpha himself the defunct pack his father ran. They are under the Lombardi, but as it’s his younger sister …” Raphael shrugged as his voice trailed off.

“He’s giving Pasquale the Alpha honor of vetting the mate,” Adonis finished. “It won’t matter. She’s mine, and no one will stop me. Wheels up in diez.”

Raphael was on his feet and striding out the door before Adonis could turn away from his desk to stand. Complete loyalty was hard to come by, but Adonis knew Raphael was solid, he’d always be. But for now, putting aside thoughts of his capitán, Adonis turned his attention to the woman he was prepared to take if
