Javier has been waiting hundreds of years for his mate, but now that he finally found him, his mate was not what he was expecting.

Every young wolf pictures their fated mate to be their perfect match. But how can Javier have finally found his mate only to discover his mate is a broken wolf, so beyond ruined by a group of hunters he may not ever shift back to human again. And not only that, the little wolf has a cub. The books always said only fated mates could produce offspring. Is it possible to have two fated mates in one lifetime?

Javier, as second in command only to the heir to the throne of the werewolves. He has had decades of practice playing politics and managing pack business, but pulling a scared, and fiercely protective mate back from the brink might be more than he bargained for.

If one thing is certain, he won't let this opportunity pass him by. His fated mate is right in front of him, if only he can reach him, maybe he can have the life he always dreamed of. And the family he has longed for.

But his little wolf isn't going to make it easy.

Nothing good has ever come easy, but hopefully the good will come to Javier after all. And maybe a little will rub off on the wolf who has been through hell and back.
