LOGINRunning from her abusive father straight into the arms of a werewolf Alpha? Not Cathy Freeman's smartest move. But when Magnus Stone finds her bleeding and broken on his territory, those molten amber eyes promise protection she's never known. Too bad the brooding Alpha is dead-set on keeping his distance—something about everyone he loves ending up dead. Real comforting. Except his dragon spirit didn't get the memo. The ancient power coiled inside him keeps manifesting around her, possessive and protective in ways that make Magnus lose his legendary control. And when Cathy discovers she can feel his dragon even when they're apart? When she starts channeling its energy herself? Yeah, they're both screwed. Her father's made a deal with Magnus's worst enemy, and they're coming for Luna Haven with everything they've got. Magnus can either keep pushing her away and watch his pack burn, or accept what his wolf and dragon have known all along: She's his mate. His weakness. His ultimate weapon. And when an Alpha with a dragon spirit finally claims what's his? The whole damn supernatural world better run. A scorching paranormal romance featuring a possessive Alpha who talks to dragons, a heroine who refuses to be saved, and enough heat to set the forest on fire. Trigger warnings: parental abuse (off-page), graphic violence, and explicit sexual content including possessive fated mate scenes that don't believe in slow burns.
View MoreCathy hurried to the bathroom, turning on the shower and stripping off her clothes. As the steam filled the air, she stepped under the hot spray, trying to wash away the lingering traces of her arousal. The water cascaded over her skin, but she couldn't scrub away the memory of Magnus's touch or the way his eyes had pierced into her.She pressed her forehead against the cool tile, letting the water flow over her. "Get it together, Cathy," she whispered. "He's way out of your league."Magnus was an Alpha werewolf, a powerful leader with centuries of experience. And she was just a human, a fragile creature caught up in a world she barely understood. The idea that he could be her "true mate" – as her werewolf friends had described it – seemed laughable. Ridiculous. Completely impossible.Yet, despite her rational mind telling her to stay away, her body craved his touch. The way he had looked at her, the intensity in his gaze, had ignited a fire within her that she couldn't extinguish. Ev
Cathy felt a chill run down her spine. "Traded? Like... actually traded?" "Territorial exchanges, political alliances, genetic diversification," Lena listed coldly. "A woman's consent isn't even a consideration. The pack's survival trumps individual autonomy." "But how is that even legal?" Cathy asked, her sense of justice flaring. Jordan's laugh was bitter. "Supernatural communities operate outside human law. Pack law is brutal. Survival is the only real rule." Aria continued, her voice dropping. "Females are tracked from childhood. Their first heat, their genetic markers, their potential to produce strong wolves. Some packs start arranging marriages before girls even hit puberty." "First heat?" Cathy's voice was small. "Biological trigger for reproductive capability," Lena explained clinically. "When a female werewolf becomes capable of producing offspring. Some traditional packs have... ceremonies. Rituals that are basically state-sanctioned sexual assault." The hallway felt suffoc
As the dining hall buzzed with whispers behind her, Cathy found herself practically dragged out by Aria, Lena, and Jordan – her self-proclaimed werewolf guardians who looked simultaneously horrified and impressed.Aria, her curly hair escaping from a messy ponytail, whirled on Cathy. "Are you actually insane?" she hissed, her multiple bracelets jangling with her dramatic gesture. "Sitting next to Magnus? During breakfast? That's... social suicide!"Lena, pushing her oversized sweater sleeve up, deadpanned, "Or just plain suicide. Whichever comes first." Her green eyes rolled so hard they might have fallen out of her head.Jordan, wearing his red hoodie and trying to look serious, just shook his head. "I've never seen anyone so casually disregard pack hierarchy. Ever."Cathy, still flushed from the earlier strawberry incident, waved her hand dismissively. "He didn't seem bothered. Actually, he didn't seem anything. Speaking of which," she paused, a sudden curiosity replacing her nervou
"Shift!" Demetrius commanded, his voice a thunderous growl in the rogue's mind. "Shift, and I may spare your life."But the rogue, eyes wild with fear and defiance, refused to yield. It thrashed in Demetrius's grip, its claws scrabbling against the ground, desperate to escape. Stupid. Really, really stupid.A snarl of frustration tore from Demetrius's throat. This was taking too long. Every moment they spent here was a moment away from Cathy, from the warmth of her presence and the intoxicating scent of her skin.With a surge of anger, Demetrius tightened his jaws, his teeth sinking deeper into the rogue's flesh. The rogue let out a choked whimper, its struggles growing weaker as the life drained from its body.And then, with a final, shuddering breath, it was over.As the rogue's lifeless form slumped to the ground, Demetrius released his grip, stepping back to survey the carnage. Blood stained his fur, dripping from his muzzle in crimson rivulets, and for a moment, he felt a surge o
