Combine that with the fact that his pheromones have gone crazy since he first began shifting at twenty, and the last six months have been hell for him. But Tucker’s alpha can’t handle the disruption anymore. On his own, Tucker heads south, trying to find the unclaimed territory Shane mentioned where he can just be himself. Except Shane was lying. The territory isn’t unclaimed. Worse, it’s the home of the Pricolici—the oldest haitas in the United States—and the Hunters. The boogie men of all lupes, the ancient wolves of the Pricolici enforce the peace and ensure their existence is kept a secret, and they won’t hesitate to kill if someone calls too much attention to themselves. Tucker immediately runs into Stelian, the alpha of the Pricolici. He doesn’t know what to expect, other than contempt for his submissive wolf nature, but the last thing he expects to hear is that he isn’t a wolf at all! But he has no idea what a hultan is, much less how to learn control of the magic Stelian insists he has. And finding a mate? No way.When the haitas that took him in comes under attack, Tucker must fight back with everything he can… and even that might not be enough.

    Like Peter, a young man with a strict rule about one-night stands with locals. He breaks that rule for Lucien, the owner of The Den, a rival nightclub where there are no boundaries, no taboos. Only he doesn't realize just who Lucien is when he does. When Peter finds out that the man he wants to get to know even more is a vampire, he figures he should have stuck to that rule. He's not fan of vampires or most other creatures of the night, but Lucien is relentless in his seduction. Peter resists Lucien as long as he can, but when he gives in, he does it in a big way, falling headfirst in to the dark, violent world of vampires, werewolves, and other creatures he's only read about. Peter and Lucien begin a very dangerous dance of sensual heat and deep emotion, one that causes them nothing but trouble. No one approves of the human and vampire match, including those in Lucien's Coven, old enemies, and even older friends. Peter and Lucien have to struggle to stay together and protect those they love. Can they beat the forces that will try to tear them apart forever? And can they face what will become of Peter if they stay together?
