One mistake. One wrong move. I trusted the wrong wolf and it’s changed my fate forever. I walked right into his trap. I tried to fight. Tried to run. But the man who’s haunted my dreams caught me. It turns out ghosts are real. He captured me. Bound me in chains even I can’t break. He is a predator, ruthless, cold. A dark wolf. But he’s something else as well. Brutal. Beautiful. Raw power. And now he has what he wants. Me. I don’t want to want him. I’ve been down this road before. I should have killed him when I had the chance. He’s taken everything from me that matters. I shouldn’t let him touch me. Shouldn’t love the way it feels. But I do. He wants to wreck me. Own me. Mark me. It doesn’t matter that I’m an Alpha too. He demands submission. I wish I could resist. But he knows my dark nature. My deepest secrets. The truth about what makes me burn. Because he’s the one who showed it to me. Only now it could destroy us both. Note: This is part two of a trilogy.

Being the son of a librarian, he spent many of his weekends and summers reading books. The only thing he loved more than reading was indulging in creative writing. As he matured he began to take an interest in Japanese animation, comic books, and role playing video games. After immersing himself in the media storylines he loved so much, he discovered that there was not enough action in most of the stories he loved. So, he vowed to one day write a story that was not lacking in action. One day, after an assignment in one of his college English classes called for an outline of an epic adventure, he made good on that vow and began writing stories that deliver page turning action. He writes for the people who feel dissatisfied with the stories they love so much. Atonus L. Perry lives in Shreveport, Louisiana with his son, Isaiah Alexander Perry.
