Every year, two times a year, the Heat occurs. Unmated females with their first heats are let out in an expanse of territory where they are forcefully mated and claimed by the unmated males. This year is Cassandra's first heat. And she is determined to come back unmated. Note: Everything but cliche. This means - No male Alpha mate - No winning all the time - Fears from the main characters - A nice guy - No "mine" - No weak Omega mate - Grave injuries for the main characters - Necessary deaths (I'm not the author who writes the names of all the characters on a piece of paper and then picks one haphazardly to kill them)
