The Alpha in my Father's House

My father broke my mother's bond in front of two hundred people and called it his own business. She lived eleven more months. He never once looked back. Now there's an Alpha sleeping down the hall from me. Serena Lane runs the pack across the ridge, and she's in our house to sign a treaty that will hand my father everything he's ever wanted — her land, her people, and, if he gets his way, her. So I'm going to take her first. It was supposed to be one night. One recording. One memory card left on his desk where he couldn't miss it. Except her daughter came home early. Except the woman I was using started making me breakfast. Except there are six silver rounds in my father's safe, and by the time anyone counts them, one of them is already gone. She came to sign a treaty. She stayed to burn a house down.
