By Celia Fairchild

Chloe has never played by the rules. But when her father, the Alpha werewolf of the Aider Lock pack, decides to marry her off to a man she's never met, she decides to take matters into her own hands.

When she tries to escape, however, she runs into her dream man. Literally. And her inner wolf won't let her say goodbye without sampling a taste...

Chloe's wolf is strong, but her desire might just be stronger.

This is a short story and does not end in a cliffhanger.
