Before he claims his mate, she must be brought to heel.

Ordered to disband her pack so that she can be matched with a mate, Skylar defies the Ruling Council, only to be hunted down and captured.
Though he can tell Skylar will be trouble the moment he sets eyes on her, Dylan Grainger knows how to tame a wayward woman, and it isn't long before the beautiful, feisty redhead is tearfully promising obedience as her bare bottom is soundly spanked. But Dylan quickly realizes that Skylar is much more than just a headstrong female in need of an alpha's firm-handed correction.
With each passing day, he grows more certain that she is his mate, and he knows that soon he must claim her, mark her, and take her hard and thoroughly. But will she resist her instincts, or will her body's response to his bold dominance leave her in no doubt that she belongs to him?

Excerpt from Brought to Heel
The news that they had failed completely hit Skylar as though it were a physical blow. Dylan closed some of the distance between them until she raised the knife in a very threatening position. He held his hand up to stop the men who weren't currently holding onto one of the women from getting closer.
"It'll be all right, Sky. I won't let that little maneuver with the flare gun or you threatening me with a knife go without punishment. And I hate to tell you, but I think that punishment needs to be now for your pack's sake, for my men's sake, and frankly for your sake. The sooner you recognize and accept my authority over you, the easier this will be on everyone. But I'll make you a deal."
"You have nothing to offer me that I want."
"I think I do. I had planned to have your pack disciplined before we head for home. My thought was if the lot of you were nursing sore bottoms, you'd be a lot easier to deal with on a small boat. But, if you put down the knife and submit to my authority, you'll be the only one spanked. I'll give the others a pass as having acted on your orders. But mark my words, I intend to make your first spanking from me memorable."
"That's not much of a deal."
"Oh, but it is. Either way, I intend to go sit down on that log, put you over my knee, bare your pretty little backside, and paddle it until it's bright red and swollen. Get nasty while I'm doing it, and you'll get your first taste of my belt. Take my deal and you're the only one who gets spanked. Refuse my deal, I'll disarm you, spank you until you're crying, and take my belt to your backside and leave welts behind. And your pack members will each get a good taste of the discipline they obviously need before we head for home. So what is it to be, mate? Just you or your women too?"
She searched his face for the veracity and severity of his words. She realized he was willing to spare her girls but only if she submitted. "I have your word they won't be disciplined for our bid for freedom?"
"You do."
She took the knife and threw it, landing it precisely between his spread feet.
"All right, the rest of you get the women on the boat. My mate and I are going to have a little lesson in what happens when a naughty girl runs away and doesn't heave to when she's asked."
The women all started to struggle. He looked pointedly at Skylar.
"Enough. We've lost. This bastard means to beat me regardless of what happens to you, but he promised to spare you if I gave him what he wants. There's no reason for all of us to get beaten..."
"Spanked, Skylar, not beaten. Never beaten."
"Funny how those of you who do the beating like to try to make out like there's a difference between the two."
Dylan chuckled. "You have a lot to learn about actually submitting, mate. But I'll help you with that. Come here to me."
