Something is hunting Vee.

Vee's life has changed since she revealed herself to Shane and his pack. When another pack leader comes to call on Shane and seems to know about her, Shane decides he has to claim her as his mate to protect her. She is hesitant at first, but then agrees, seeing no other way to get her life back to normal. Or at least, as close as she can get to normal.

But not long after Vee is claimed, her family is murdered. This sends Vee, Shane, and Durran down a rabbit hole. They flee to pack property outside of the city, hoping it'll be easier to defend. All the while, Vee and Shane finally seem to be able to admit their feelings for one another, and while Shane finds it unlikely that he would be able to bond with her, he feels he needs to explain to her what might happen if they do.
