Story is incomplete at 423 chapters. 

Ultimately, the story makes no sense as the author attempts to drag it out for serialization. It was doomed from the start with the basic storyline:

A billionaire CEO was drugged at his birthday party seven years prior to the opening scene. He ended up having s*x with a young woman, who ended up pregnant and seemingly traps the man into marriage. We slowly find out that the woman was not at fault and that she was set up to hand over the drugged drink then later sent to his room with medicine,( since he wasn't feeling well send didn't know he was drugged), at which point he commenced to sexually assault and r*pe her. She ends up frantically calling the police, bringing forth evidence of the r*pe etc. The Patriarch of the billionaire's family comes to her with a proposal, after discovering her pregnancy, and asked her to just marry his grandson and he would help her deceased mother's company survive and give her 2 billion, I think. She agrees...

At 135 chapters, there is no sign of the two wolves mentioned in the title. The female lead is immature and aggravating and her personality is inconsistent with a young single mother that had to grow up fast due to being pregnant and raising a set of twins as a "wolfless" rogue with no permanent home. 

She harbors her anger at the kids father for far longer than reasonable. Initially, when she thought he was taking her kids, it made sense. But afterwards, soon afterwards, he actually started being nice to her and doing kind gestures. She was still a total kid/brat and had no valid reasoning behind it. Even at 100 chapters in and her realizes she does like him, she still cops an attitude like a child.

Speaking of children, these children are written with adult mentality... well the son, Noah, is. He says things he definitely should not be aware of and maybe the purpose is supposed to be due to his genes, but it doesn't seem like it bc even his father is shocked. 

The storyline gets bogged down and loses its focus, which at some point becomes about a  mysterious necklace that belonged to Catherine when it originally seemed to be about either discovering the father and what happened that night, finding out how and why her stepmom and sister set her up. 

Somehow it took a turn and changed Catherine's backgroun, making it mysterious, which relates to the necklace that keeps getting put off in favor of Catherine's childish acts towards the dad. To add to the ridiculousness and draw out the fact that they are mates, it seems that their wolves are always sleeping and not constantly alert like most werewolf/Lycan stories. They seem to wake up momentarily, say a few things, sometimes cryptic, and go dormant again.

It seems like the title is hinting at the physical wolf they can shift into and the Lycan being two different wolves? But that's ridiculous because that wouldn't be such a secret considering the lycan's are the ruling royal family so it should be known in why they are in power over werewolves.

Its a waste of time. These authors are getting out of control with all these chapters.

She remains a doormat and repeatedly gets raped by him all the way up to ch 253, where I stopped. Here's my last comment on that chapter before I realized I could write reviews on the top page.

Ok. I'm done, she's praising Caleb saying how smart he is and how that intelligence always allowed him to see through Penelope's schemes?!? Like pushing her own child down the stairs to frame Sydney and telling Dorothy that she did? Trying to get on with Alan, bc Sydney had? Trying to work at the clinic Sydney worked at? Having her own son kidnapped?  All all the other many things? And she's basically saying he is so intelligent that he saw through those schemes? Really? Trying to press charges against her!

It's amazing that I lasted this long, all the name mix ups and illogical story arcs, and so much more, it's ridiculous. This story was pieced together from several different ones with the similar "doormat to strong female" plot, failing miserably because the female never stops being a doormat and makes several excuses for why, which is exactly why she's considered a doormat in the first place. 

I really enjoyed this book. Firstly, the length was an appropriate amount of chapters, not ranging into the hundreds or more. Secondly, it had a normal amount of arcs and an actual conclusion to the main plot while giving actions that could lead to another book.

There were some little details that were inconsistent but able to be overlooked as they didn't create major issues with the plot... well except one. Neither Rosalyn, Jermaine nor Alessandro seemed to remember the human girl Lilith at all and never asked about her or her well being. Rosalyn and Jermaine should have remembered as she helped heal them in between their tortures. Rosalyn should have definitely because if she hadn't have healed Jermaine after Nora's slash, he'd be dead. As for Alessandro (and Xavier), they recognized her as their mate and should definitely have her on the brain, at least at some point after Kevin was dealt with and especially while talking weddings and such.

That was major, though it was also towards the end as it seems the author was setting up for book two and overlooked that point.

Overall, I really enjoyed the story and look forward to reading more from this author.

Book 1 Alaric and Sage's story ends at 192, which then starts a new story about Alexander, their first born, and his mate( I'm guessing. As of this writing, I did not continue on... I actually didnt read the last of Sage and Alaric either. You'll see why below.) 

The story starts off at a good pace, luring you in with its intrigue and mystery. Then it starts adding a little politics to set the background for all the failure thats about to happen over the next 190 chapters.

This was a poorly written serial book. It dragged on and on, prolonging the reveal of the true identity and Sage's background. Sage constantly heard a song that she repeatedly ignored. She constantly had hints and recollections of something that she'd decide to dismiss, ALWAYS related to a threat of some sort or her old abusive pack. At one point she said she'd learned something from her mother, then that was forgotten and then said she'd never remembered her past at all as the new background was later written in.

Here is why I rated low, would have rated lower but it won't let me change my stars.

First, Alaric gets her to the castle KNOWING how the politics are, knowing how his ex can be AND knowing what just happened to Sage at the pack she grew up in, with the bullying from the main girl that like the alpha heir. Does he shield her from his ex knowing he is wolfless, send the ex away, put guards on her, you know, since he's the KING and he can do that? Absolutely not. And this commences the bullying of Sage yet again.

Second, his Beta, knowing what happened to Sage, knowing what Sage is to Alaric, sends the ex to retrieve Alaric and Sage for their journey from Sage's pack. He didn't warn Alaric so that they could make an excuse to send her to her own territory (which was weird that she seemed to live there in the castle seeing as how she was his ex and not from his pack, her father, an alpha, having his own pack). 

Iris, Alaric's sister and the Beta's mate, although was sweet and kind to Sage, turned out to be useless. She watched Eris constantly bullying Sage, but NEVER ONCE actually saying anything TO Eris to confront her. All her threats about retribution towards Eris were always said AFTER Eris left or when they were alone later and her finding out what Eris did or said. It's like, hello, you're a princess! You outrank Eris, all this righteous indignation in private isn't solving any problems. And it's didnt like she didn't know of or hear the rumors Eris spread, it's not like she didn't know what she was doing, but again, no protection for the wolfless Sage. 

Third, Alaric himself. The Impotent Lycan King. He actually had no real power, with the way he was written. He was supposed to be the all powerful Lycan king whose growl would make people come to heel, but NO ONE submitted to him. He seemed powerful when it started at Sage's pack, but as soon as he reached the castle, not a single one of the noble wolves seems to bow to him. He wasn't respected in the least and was easily led by the nose, doing things at their whim under the guise of not letting them see a weakness. Which... actually was the biggest weakness of all because he couldn't even protect his own mate. She was constantly hurt by him and his people. He did nothing. He didn't even tell her they were mates! He always snuck around to see her, giving her comforting words but no real protection. It was heartbreaking to read over 150 chapters of the author trying to spin his whispered sweet words into actual care and protection, then to have his POV and his lame excuses for why he couldn't do more because the nobles were waiting to see a weakness in him. ITS HIS MATE! WTF! If not your mate, who else can you soften towards and show weakness to? The entire "Political Posturing" plot ruined the book. It renders Alaric impotent. He wasn't really ruling anything. The nobles were via threats, complaints, and gossip... spreading lies to influence things in their favor and against the king. The king seemed to have no allies among the nobles in his own court, where normal there are at least a few loyal to the crown. The politics made Alaric unable to defend and protect his mate. I mean, he'd roar out some crap about her being under his protection, but it meant absolutely nothing due to the politics. His own palace guards, who should be loyal to the royal family, would work under the orders of an outsider, no questions asked. He even let his father dictate that he would mate Eris for political gain... announced in front of his mate (who doesn't know she's his mate but thinks they have something) and says not one word. HE IS ALREADY KING! Not the heir! Why is his father arranging his marriage? Dumb book. I read to at least 160, I can't remember exactly, but at this point Alaric still wasn't protecting her, just with empty words still, after having said the came to a revelation that she wasn't a weakness and he would do more to protect her not caring what people said. But I guess the author forgot and went right back into verbal protection and private comfort again. 

I can't recommend it.

Horrible story. Seems to be a mashup of several doormat wife stories when the neglected wife realizes the man cheated and says she's divorcing. 

Main Characters: Aurora, Alpha Ferris, Alpha Adrian

1. Divorce doesn't happen until over 200 chapters after several different nonsensical reasons drawing out the typical "30 day" timeline these tropes seem to have. But then it doesn't matter because he's now living in her house due to the mother in law requesting it... the same mother in law that abused her for the entire marriage under some baseless threat that just shows how weak she is after all this.

2. In the beginning of the story, while filing her divorce, she had called and conceded to a marriage to Alpha Adrian, apparently someone that she had been promised to marry by her father before she chose Alpha Ferris instead. So, then it goes on to her communicating with Adrian, buying dresses, engagement rings, and Adrian even buys her a limited edition Porsche. The story was going well, then the first 30 days flew by with no divorce and although Adrian was still in the picture, it wasn't as her fiance, but seemingly, as a childhood friend that recently came back into her life, has a crush on her and wants to protect her... the engagement forgotten completely. 

3. Aurora is constantly getting raped by Ferris as the secret divorce countdown continues and his aggression rises due to not being able to control her. She continues to go places privately with him and then act defiant, which leads to him being aggressive and yet another r*pe scene. Even after the trial for the divorce, he says he wants to speak with her for a moment, and after being raped several times by him, she goes with him. But instead of stepping off to the side to talk, somehow she ends up in th car GOING somewhere with him, knowing he's unhinged! This leads to a car accident, whip seemed to be deliberate, in which Ferris supposedly gets amnesia and only remembers his WIFE, Aurora, not his evil mother or his beta or anyone else. He is also rendered blind. Which then leads to the mother in law guilt tripping her into keeping Ferris at her home because "he got that way trying to protect her". It is so illogical that... I mean... HE ASKED HER to talk. If he had of just left the courthouse and not bothered her, they wouldn't have been in that car together. But Aurora, ever the doormat, allows it.

4. Turns out Ferris has a twin named Dennis. The story starts to go in another direction, adding yet another love interest, revealing that the entire reason she married Ferris and did so much for him, enduring his neglect and abuse, was that she had mixed up the twins somehow and now understood why she thought Ferris had changed so much from the man she fell in love with. That man had been kind, sweet and considerate of others. 

5. Around this point, it's already over 200 chapters. She's finally divorced, but still lives with Ferris in her mother's old estate. There's no mention of her engagement to Adrian and longer, he's just a friend that keeps in touch. She's starting to have mixed feelings about Ferris. He is trying to do things a kept husband would do, keeping house, cleaning, etc. Dennis is made to pretend to be Ferris before the world so that the family won't lose their position with the board and the pack, all his mother's doing. Dennis doesn't like it.

I stopped at chapter 253. I couldn't take reading about her having feelings/catching feelings for the man that raped her at least six times in the past month and a half, nor the excuses she gave for why she had to let it happen. None of them were valid or worth it.

This book was a horrible mess. I cannot recommend it.

Book seemed to have no direction. I stopped at chapter 100 though. (Update: Google says she rewrote the book due to complaints of "many readers finding the ending difficult to reach or felt the story was "never-ending" due to its hundreds of chapters. The author has since released a revised version under the title "The Bonds That Bind Us" by Taylor West.")

It was pretty clear to me that the "monster's" were lycan when first described. What was weird to me thought was that no one, at this point, had ever really heard of them. They are a related species, but here they were mythical creatures? 

It was also unrealistic that Neah lived in the pack her entire life and never saw any shifting, but knew she was/had a wolf. It's over 400 chapters and basically it took 100 just for Alpha Dane/Damian to meet Neah, make a contract with her "brother" and move her to his pack. Oh, and to reveal that Neal's were a pack of Lycan and not werewolves.

The contract was never explained from the get go. What did Alpha Alex need Dane's pack for in the first place? Where is the story going at over 400 chapters? It took 100 just to get here, to NOTHING!I cannot recommend this book.

There is no story actually posted here, just the author's notes to readers about the book and posting delays. This should be removed.

I haven't even read this yet but looking at the fact that it's over 200 chapters to cover the eloquently written synopsis tells me that a lot of bs is going to go down.

On top of that, it says that Autumn doesn't expose their cheating? Nope. So it's like the protagonist has cancer and will die soon (3 mos, I don't know why that number is in my head but I felt like I just read that) and we're supposed to get closure from the abuse, neglect and betrayal she was subjected to because she gets a divorce within the actual 30 days and rekindles an old flame before she dies in 60 days? This is a  ridiculous plot.

Just reading the synopsis and looking at the chapter count, it's clear that this book is a ridiculous waste of time. Who writes this nonsense?

She divorces him but years later is the "mysterious" fiance to his best friend? How did his best friend not realize he'd proposed to his bff's wife? Doesn't sound like they were best friends at all, cuz even if she was a "secret wife", he would have told his bff and those close to him.

Over 800 chapters of ridiculous. The other reviewer that actually attempted to read this validates my assumption.
