Heart of the Pack

Selena Miller takes a job in Wolfgang County hoping to build a life beyond her family’s control. Anxiety makes independence difficult, but leaving familiar restrictions behind feels worth the effort. Caden Wolfgang sees her arrival very differently. As the pack’s Second, Caden is responsible for protecting a community whose nature must remain hidden, and a human working at the center of its business feels like a threat. A tragedy in Caden’s past gives that mistrust a personal force. Yet watching Selena closely begins to undermine the assumptions behind Caden’s hostility. Attraction develops where suspicion once seemed sufficient. For a relationship to become possible, Selena must eventually confront what the Wolfgangs are, while Caden must decide whether protecting her pack requires keeping love outside it.
