His destiny is to free the Raizarch wolves from the vampire king … … but to do so he has to mate someone he doesn’t love. All his life, Toren knew he was different but could never understand why. Until a lone wolf—Zeveride—temporarily joins their pack. A handsome male with vivid green eyes, he takes Toren’s breath away and makes him want things he shouldn’t. For the Okami wolves, life is about the survival of their species. As the heir of the Okami king, Toren’s life is already laid out before him—the Okami king’s youngest son of mating age must mate the Raizarch king’s youngest daughter in order to fee the wolves. How can Toren refuse? And if he did, how would he ever live with himself? Yet, as disaster strikes and he and Zeveride grow closer, the harder it becomes for Toren to accept his fate. But when the lone wolf who’s captured his heart suddenly leaves, Toren tries to forget the male. Except he can’t. What’s worse, Toren can feel that Zeveride is in trouble. Get it now and feel the beat of your heart as these two wolves navigate an impossible love. **Warning: Contains a sweet MM relationship. For fans of Laurell K Hamilton, JR. Ward, Sherrilyn Kenyon.
