Out Of Dark by Quinn Loftis
Date Released: June 3rd 2012
Pages: 253 pages
Summary:
Darkness has descended on the Transylvanian Alps.
Four packs of the powerful Grey wolves – in a rare show of cooperation – had joined together here in an effort to help their pack members find true mates. Then they were betrayed by one of their own – an Alpha hell-bent on becoming the most powerful of the Canis lupis. And though the wolf's assassination attempt on the currently-reigning Romanian Alpha failed, his plans to get Decebel, the Romanian Beta, out of the picture were coming together even as his treachery was discovered. The wolf fled, leaving destruction, death, and a missing mate behind him.
Unbeknownst to the other packs, the wolf has employed a witch to finish the deadly job and help him gain another tool to increase his power. A curse of devastating proportions will cripple Decebel in a way that may dissolve his fragile bond with Jennifer. Meanwhile, injured and alone, Jen has been fighting for her life. She had come to terms with her fate, accepting that she would not share a life with Decebel, until help came in the most unexpected form...
Vasile will have to use all his resources – including Sally, the new gypsy healer of the Romanian pack – to discover a way in which to destroy the witch, lift the curse from Decebel and reunite him with the one woman who makes him whole, and solve a mystery that's been surrounding the Romanian pack for 300 years.

From Goodreads
Decebel tried to reach out to
Jennifer again, but she pulled back. It was like a punch to his gut.
"I
just need some time, Decebel. Please. Just -" He felt her pain, could nearly
feel the tears that streaked her face. "I
just need some time." And then she was gone.
Sally, Jacque, Fane, Costin,
Cynthia, and Crina all watched in shock as Decebel, big, strong, immovable
Decebel, lost control.
Decebel shot up from the ground
and with wolf speed was across the room, grabbing chairs and throwing them.
They shattered, hitting the walls with such force that the tavern shook.
Decebel snarled, continuing to wreak havoc on everything in his path. His howl
of pain swept through the building, bringing everyone to their knees as power
rolled off of him.
Suddenly the door to the room
flew open and Vasile stormed in. His own power filled the room, wrapping around
Decebel and pulling him down.
"Settle, Beta." Vasile
words were firm, laced with the promise of retribution if his Beta did not get
himself under control.
Decebel bowed his head.
"I've
failed her."
