Immediately rejected at 18yrs old for her status as a Gamma by the future alpha of her pack, Dominic does not runaway. Why should she? This was her home! Her mother and father and little sister were here. Her best friend was here. Her LIFE was here in the pack. Why should she leave because her fated mate was a pompous, stuck-up, prick, who looked at status as the know all/be all of having a 'decent' mate? Two years pass and she is thriving with her pack. Until she is not. Having found his chosen mate, the now alpha of her pack presents her to the members. The new Luna's first order of business? To exile Dominic from the packland, never to return. Encouraging her family to stay, so that they do not become rogues, she leaves the pack on her own. Never looking back. Never shedding a tear. She had no time for tears. Not yet. Her future was of utmost importance to secure. Not only for her, but for the others that would come after her. ********************************************** This is not a cushy, sickeningly sweet, gushy story. Dark elements are involved. Trauma. Hurt. PTSD. TRIGGER warnings will be posted on the chapters as they come up. ENJOY!
