Act II: SeductionA year of separation has done little to discourage a werewolf's heart. Alpha Andreas Baron loves Gerwalta Faust, even if she is his natural enemy, and he will have none other for his mate. If only he can convince her of that before the Grand Matron awards his beloved's hand to another...Gerwalta knows that to give in to her desires would sentence Andreas to death. What she feels is irrelevant. She will not condemn him by falling for his attempts at seduction. When she's given a mission that will take her far from the Black Forest, Gerwalta pushes forward, thankful for the distance. Until she discovers that Andreas will be part of the party, that is.Their purpose: capture a band of seven deadly vampires whose schemes would place werewolves and vampires on opposite battlefields for Europe's two great empires. The true danger, however, arises when the wolf and the watcher, away from the influence of clan and pack, cross the point of no return, changing the course of the supernatural world forever...

I refuse this life. I refuse this legacy. I will not become a wolf-killer.Humans think Little Red Riding Hood is nothing more than a fairytale, but we hoods know better. We despise the woman who committed the darkest sin one of our kind can: falling in love with a werewolf and becoming his mate. The fairy tale didn't end the way you've been told. Unless you've heard the version in which Little Red was roasted on a silver spit over a fire, that is.And I almost walked down that same path. But in losing the werewolf I loved, I also realized the kind of person I want to be. That's why I've turned my back on my heritage, denied my birthright. I will not hate werewolves just because they're werewolves. I will not train to contain them, dominate them, and if I so choose, kill them. In fact, I refuse to be a hood at all. I've walked away from my old life.And that was going great, until an English werewolf on the run walked into my new one…

Gerwalta Faust may be the youngest daughter of the Red Matron, but she is still a capable warrior, a righteous wolf-watcher. She knows better than to trust a lupine, especially one as handsome as Andreas Baron. Andreas despises the wolf-watchers, but what self-respecting werewolf wouldn't? They lord over his kind, ruling with ruthless silver fists. The last thing he wants is to spend time with one, let alone come to see her as something more than the blood red cloak she wears. But as Andreas and Gerwalta set out to retrieve a runaway wolf, they discover not the beasts they expected, but the beauty within. Each fights against the tendering of their heart, knowing that there is one immutable law neither can outrun: it is a crime for a wolfsretter and a lupine to love. A crime punishable by death. Beauty and the Betrayer is the story of Die Verräterin, the infamous betrayer referenced in the contemporary paranormal urban fantasy fairytale, the Red Hood Chronicles.
