At a young age, Alpha Bowen's trust was shuttered after a close ally betrayed his parents and his pack. Traumatized by the events of the past, he grew up skeptical and aloof. Despite this, his pack became one of the most powerful packs there is because of his leadership and immense wealth.

But fate has her way of vexing Alpha Bowen....

Two mates appeared before him one night. One is real and the other is an imposter!

He must confront the situation and discover his real luna hastily as nefarious forces are at play that could endanger his mate and his pack.

With the challenge ahead, will Alpha Bowen emerge more receptive or more guarded than ever?

"Bowen, always remember what I taught you about the power of information and leverage."

"Yes, godfather," ten-year old Bowen replied to his godfather, Marius.

Bowen was at the library for his private studies with his godfather when an explosion was heard. Marius and Bowen both ran to the windows to see what was happening.

A good seventy wolves were attacking their pack. There was fire and rubbles all around the pack house. Stone Pack warriors fend off enemy wolves with all their might.

"Bowen, come quick! We must get you to safety!" Marius called.

Marius took Bowen's hand and pulled him as they brisk walked to who knows where.

"Where are we going, godfather?" Bowen asked as he tightly held Marius' hand. Bowen knows he is safe with him. His godfather would never let anything harm him or his parents, the alpha and luna of Stone Pack. He is the one person they can trust their lives with.

Marius did not mind Bowen and continued to pull the boy.

They reached the pack grounds where the center of the battle is on going to Bowen's surprise.

His heart beats quicker. He could tell something is not right.

He tried to pull away from Marius but his grip is strong. Marius threw Bowen a hard stare.

For the first time, Bowen is scared of Marius.

"Alpha Vigo, Luna Adelle! I have your son! Surrender yourselves and the Stone Pack now or I swear to the moon goddess that I will end you son's life!" Marius diabolically hollered.

"No! Godfather, why are you doing this?" Bowen asked.

"Quiet, boy! It's time for new leadership. The lenkacea flower is they key to this pack's glory and yet your parents waste it! I am done being a side-kick. I will rule Stone Pack and control the lenkacea fields." Marius spoke with palpable disdain and fierce anger.

What happened next will remain printed on the boy's mind and soul. His beloved godfather whom his parents trusted all those years killed his parents in front of him. He will never forget the disbelief in his father's eyes and the terror in his mother's face.

Marius was about to kill Bowen next when the royal guards of Alpha King Adar came. Marius and his thugs were easily vanquished.

Bowen was saved but not without deep scars.
