Never challenge the alpha. Not your average shifter clan, the Icarian wolf-pack is full of troublesome strays kicked out of their home packs for various reasons. Some were too dominant to be contained, others too competitive for mates, still others were rejected for political or petty reasons. The motley crew of misfits and renegades are ruled with a firm but fair hand by born alpha Stavros Laskaris. As a result, most of the shifters who make their home on the idyllic Greek island have learned to submit and obey. Except Kent. The alpha's mate. Blonde haired, blue eyed, and far too handsome for his own good, Kent is a half-blood shifter who frequently breaks the rules - and spends a significant portion of his life making up for it as a result. For all his misbehavior, there is one rule Kent has never broken. It's the unspoken, but most important rule of all: never challenge the alpha. Kent is about to break that rule. And he's about to discover that Stavros is more than ready for him to do it.
