Ethan Sinclair is a stabby little psychopath...emphasis on the little part. After waking up in an underground lab the day after he turned thirteen, Ethan has been subjected to every type of assault and violation. It's not like they consider a werewolf a person in there anyways. Since he doesn't have his teddy bear, Mr. Whiskers, or his big brother Connor to save him, Ethan adapts to survive until his rescue almost eight years later.

Ric Jameson has been the Alpha of his pack for the last five years. He never expected to take over the pack so soon, nor to take over raising his little brother. His biggest regret is the loss of Ethan, Connor's little brother, who died eight years ago. The memory of not being there to prevent the tragedy has guilt eating away at him, and makes him way too overprotective with Jack.

After Ethan is reunited with the pack, both he and Ric need to learn to navigate being around each other again. Dealing with the emotional aftermath of Ethan's captivity and the revelations of the coverup, Ric and Ethan discover there may be more to their connection than what their past indicates. Between Ethan's need for a Daddy and Ric's need to be in control, one would think they'd be a match fated by the Goddess. If only the Goddess hadn't made her deal with Ethan, maybe they'd know.
