Layla looked around her room. She was surprised she got one to herself. She, and twenty-two of the rescues, decided to go to the mate ball with King Maxon. She was hoping she’d find a second chance mate here. She didn’t want to go home to the Silver Moon Pack. They had shunned her when her mate turned out to be a human, and she wanted to accept him.
She met Cole by accident. She and her friend Kallie were shopping in the human town close to their pack. She wanted to get a new laptop for her studies. She was just three credits shy of getting her degree in Molecular Science. Her whole focus was the study of hybrids. When she was little, the Moon Goddess sent her an image of many hybrid children that could dual shift. Hybrids were still very rare and in some packs they were shunned.
