An alpha leaves his pack behind for only two reasons: to die or to find his fated mate. Ryder Asherman, the young alpha of Luna's Sentinels, must follow the winding road that will take him to the big city, since that's where his fate awaits. But all his well-laid plans fall through when he realizes that finding his mate in this glass and stone jungle will be far from easy. His fated partner is out of his reach, locked away in the tallest building in the city from where he leads his army of human servants. Ryder will not give up; he must find a way to reach this man, no matter what it takes. While he's in the city, however, he needs to act like the city dwellers he despises. Therefore, when such a human who introduces himself as Average Joe approaches him with the direct question - 'Would you sleep with me?' - his answer is yes. After all, he needs a roof over his head here, no matter how much he loves the open sky.
