AN: Hiya everyone, okay, so this is something I'm just trying out. I'm extremely nervous about it and I REALLY need feedback for this one. If reviewers don't like the direction that this is going in or if people think the plot is stupid….then I'll simply delete it and that'll be that. I honestly won't be offended if all my freaky darlings don't care for this one, seriously, no offense taken.

Plot: There's a war going on in the supernatural community between vampires and werewolves….with a few witches/warlocks intermixed. Tyler Lockwood is the prince of his wolf clan and Jeremy Gilbert is just an innocent bystander who gets caught in the middle. Tyler's betrothed to another werewolf from rival clan…..but after meeting Jeremy, complications arise.

It wasn't meant to happen like this, it was meant to be easy and simple….but nothing ever goes as planned and now everything's all fucked up. The goal had been to capture someone with connections to the vamps, keep them prisoner and retrieve information from them and then demand ransom for their safe return…..but somewhere down the line things had become twisted and tangled….a right foggy mess with blurring lines. Suddenly the great prince found his heart and his loyalty in battle with each other. Tyler's never faced a dilemma of this sort, his clan are all he knows: they're his family and friends, his subjects and loyal followers….they except great things from him, he can't disappoint them. But most of all he can't disappoint his parents, and in particular his father. A father whom he both fears and hates as well as craves the love and approval of.

Tyler has spent the majority of his young life trying to be the perfect son, the perfect hire, the perfect future leader of their clan….only perfection is impossible and he finds himself just a few months short of 18, when he will be viewed as a man and ready to select a mate, with a bitter heart and broken soul. He knows exactly whom his father would like him to pick: the pretty daughter of his father's rival. She's his age and admired among her clan, she is a perfect candidate. The only problem is, he's not in love with her. Tyler has never had a sweetheart before, he's had many conquests to be certain, but none of them were serious. Tyler has spent so long under his father's tight rules and restrictive authority that he's afraid he'll be bullied into the contract with the girl, it's a contract he'll never be able to break free from….they'll be viewed as mates for life. This thought worries him greatly after watching his own parents supposed 'happy' contract deteriorate. He doesn't want the same fate.

So, his clan was successful in finding a captive, a captive with associations to the vamps, but they failed in bringing in someone who wouldn't cause complications. They kidnapped a boy, a boy slightly younger than Tyler himself, a boy who smelled of innocence and spice, with deep trusting eyes and a presence that shook Tyler to his core. The boy was trouble without evening knowing it. Jeremy showed a kindness and gentleness that Tyler wasn't accustomed to, Jeremy somehow managed to find the key to a heart Tyler didn't know he had.

Yes, Jeremy Gilbert posed a serious threat to the man Tyler was expected to be, Tyler's whole future came crumbling down when he realized he had fallen in love. He'd fallen hard for a human, a boy and better still, someone with deep connections to his sworn enemies…..yes, the plan was utterly doomed.
