Lachlan Graves

Jamie Arden has been given one final chance. After being expelled from his previous werewolf academy for insubordination, fighting, and what the disciplinary report rather dramatically described as “a persistent refusal to respect the natural hierarchy,” the nineteen-year-old Omega has been transferred to Duskmoor Academy for his second year. His pack has made the consequences painfully clear: keep his head down, finish his education, and stay out of trouble. Jamie intends to do exactly that. For approximately twenty minutes. On his first day at Duskmoor, Jamie finds three second-year Alphas cornering a terrified first-year wolf who made the mistake of stepping out of line. And not just any Alphas. Lachlan Graves. Tristan Mercer. Rhett Calloway. Everyone at Duskmoor knows them. Lachlan is their unquestioned leader: cold, controlled, powerful, and heir to one of the oldest Alpha bloodlines in existence. Tristan stands at one side with warm brown eyes, an easy smile, and enough charm to make people forget just how dangerous he is. Rhett stands at the other, red-haired, amber-eyed, and infamous for having a temper that makes even other Alphas reconsider their life choices. The sensible thing would be to keep walking. Jamie has never been particularly gifted at being sensible. He steps between them and the first-year. Then he tells three of the most powerful wolves at Duskmoor to pick on someone their own size. The hallway goes silent. Rhett is furious. Tristan is delighted. And Lachlan Graves simply stares at the little Omega who somehow managed to look an Alpha directly in the eyes and tell him no. From that moment, Jamie's plan for an uneventful second year is thoroughly doomed. The three Alphas begin appearing everywhere he goes. Lachlan wants to understand why Jamie doesn't behave like other Omegas—and why his own wolf becomes increasingly restless whenever Jamie is nearby. Tristan decides provoking Jamie is his new favorite hobby, only to discover that somewhere between stolen lunches, ridiculous nicknames, and arguments in the corridors, making Jamie smile has become considerably more important than making him angry. And Rhett? Rhett cannot stand him. Jamie challenges him. Infuriates him. Refuses to fear him. Somehow sees straight through every growl and threat to the fiercely loyal wolf underneath. Worst of all, Jamie possesses an unusual Omega ability capable of calming Rhett's volatile wolf in a way no one else ever has. The four become increasingly tangled together as classes, rivalries, punishments, full-moon runs, pack politics, and academy traditions force them into one another's lives. But something stranger is happening beneath all their fighting. A scent that sometimes changes. A pull none of them can explain. Dreams beneath a silver moon. Instincts that don't behave the way they're supposed to. Because Jamie Arden wasn't sent to Duskmoor by coincidence. Long before any of them were born, the Moon Goddess marked a bond between the defiant Omega and one of the three Alphas. One of them is Jamie's fated mate. The problem is that the bond hasn't fully awakened. None of them knows which Alpha it belongs to. Not Lachlan. Not Tristan. Not Rhett. Not even Jamie. And as the signs begin appearing, each Alpha has reason to believe it might be him. Lachlan feels an instinctive need to protect Jamie that quickly becomes impossible to dismiss. Tristan finds his playful fascination deepening into an attachment unlike anything he's experienced before. Rhett discovers Jamie's presence can reach his wolf when nobody else can. Three Alphas. Three possible bonds. One Omega who doesn't particularly appreciate the Moon Goddess making decisions about his love life without consulting him first. But Duskmoor's oldest legends contain a warning everyone has forgotten: A fated bond does not always reveal itself through love. Sometimes, the Goddess tests the bond through conflict first. And Jamie Arden has managed to find plenty of that.
