Amelia, a human, who just lost her parents, decides to venture the world, in tribute to her family. She chooses to go hiking through Killarney Provincial Park first, unaware of the dangers that lurk within the forest. During her hike, she strays from the path and is captured by werewolf guards, who were patrolling the area. They take her back to the pack house and imprison her, fearing she may be a threat to their kind. Damon, who is the newly appointed Alpha to the Golden Moon pack, is informed of the situation and orders she be executed, in order to protect his people. Damon pays her a visit, only to discover that she is his mate. He calls off the execution and continues to keep her hostage, not sure of what to do with her, as mating with a human, is forbidden.
