As the stranger's eyes seemed to bore into my soul, I felt a shiver run down my spine.
Who was this man, and why did he seem to have such a powerful hold over me?
"I am Ethan Blackwood," he whispered, his voice low and husky. "And you, Lexi, are mine."
I felt a jolt of fear as I realized the truth.
Ethan was the alpha of the Blackwood pack, and I was just a mere mortal. Our love was forbidden, and I knew that I was taking a risk by being with him.
