Wolf's Grace

Imagine your world shattering in a single, devastating moment. Grace, a human living amongst werewolves, finds her life irrevocably altered during the brutal Mate Hunt – an annual ritual where newly turned wolves seek their fated partners. This dark paranormal romance explodes when Grace awakens disoriented and vulnerable in the heart of the forest, a pawn in a deadly game she never volunteered to play. Her world, once seemingly safe within the Nightcedar Pack, is now a landscape of fear and uncertainty. Panic rises as she recalls Alpha Raphael’s warnings about the hunt. How did she, a mere human, end up in this terrifying situation? She's underprepared, exposed, and hunted by hormonal werewolves driven by instinct and desire. Every rustle of leaves, every distant howl, is a threat to her fragile existence. Hope flickers when Raphael, her Alpha boyfriend, appears through the trees. He was her protector, the one who pledged his love and loyalty. But this reunion is far from the loving embrace she craves. Instead, Grace is confronted with the agonizing truth: Raphael has found his fated mate, a powerful she-wolf, and Grace no longer fits into his carefully constructed world. In a cruel act of rejection, Raphael casts Grace aside, his words like venomous strikes to her heart. Abandoned and heartbroken, she is left to fend for herself in the unforgiving wilderness. The betrayal cuts deep, leaving her questioning everything she thought she knew about love, loyalty, and her place within the pack. This werewolf romance takes a dark turn as Grace is forced to confront not only the physical dangers of the hunt but also the emotional turmoil of being a rejected mate. As the night deepens, Grace must summon an inner strength she never knew she possessed. Survival becomes her only focus. Navigating treacherous terrain, she must outwit predators and unravel the mysteries of her unexpected predicament. Can she find the resilience to face the night alone, or will the brutal reality of the shifter world consume her entirely? Will Grace discover hidden power within herself and find a way to thrive in a world that seems determined to break her?
