To serve the pack, I must touch the untouchable girl. Cassie. Shrouded in darkness, I watched her when we were children, helplessly drawn to her light. She’s always been the one woman I could lose myself in. It’s an obsession I’m only able to shake when we’re separated at puberty, and I find new purpose guarding the pack borders. But I’m not prepared when I’m selected for the breeding program and find Cassie in a heat-induced-lust-state begging me to take her. Behind the ram’s mask, my identity is secure, and I’m free to let loose the beast within. It’s part of the program. Natural. Expected. I just have to find a way to make sure it ends there. Pack above all. Cassie Ecstatic to be chosen for the breeding program, I’m thrilled my dream of becoming a pack mother can come true. But I have to survive the program first, and with no exposure to men since puberty, the thought of a slew of masked strangers visiting me during my heat is terrifying. Or it should be terrifying, until the heat takes hold, and the man with the ram’s mask enters my room. With his firm touch, he puts all my fears at ease and plays my body like it’s an instrument he was born to. I want him, but I find myself craving more than our brief encounters in the breeding room.
