Blurb
The
bliss Reyna and Corbyn found in their unique Úlfr engagement is
quickly forgotten as their ongoing conflict grows just as
passionately as their hearts and desires. Reyna needs her
independence and reassurance that their feelings are real. Corbyn
needs to keep her safe, and for Reyna to accept him as her mate once
and for all. If only their enemies would give them a moment to sort
out their relationship woes, but it seems their only interest is to
tear the new Wolf King and his would-be Queen apart. With the clock
ticking toward inevitable war, Corbyn's worst fears are realized when
someone ups the ante, striking at his mate from the one place he
never saw coming.
Frightened
and angry, Corbyn rushes Reyna to the Elders, only to end up on their
healing table next. After the back-to-back horrors, Reyna realizes
she needs to make a crucial decision that will change their lives
forever... and possibly save them. Fate decides to put that to the
test immediately, drawing them right into enemy territory where Reyna
will finally discover what's become of Jesse and gets an unexpected
audience with real Úlfrinn royalty.
Just
when it seems they've found solid footing at last, their world is
shaken in a horrific homecoming of bloodshed and betrayal. Their
greatest fears can no longer be ignored, as they find themselves
facing the evidence of their arrival... along with a living
Nightmare. Can Corbyn trust his Little Queen to make the right
decision for herself and their entire pack, or will he lose
everything he's ever loved in one fateful night?
Excerpt
Eying
the door nervously, she quickly used Corbyn's toothbrush and
mouthwash three times, before finally dragging her fingers through
her curls and opening the door.
Corbyn
filled the exit, causing her to jump. Happy for escape, the steam
rolled over his body like a mystical molestation that had lust
unfurling in her system, jealous of the wispy tendrils. Her gaze
traced the tongue-tingling lines of his tattoos, the steel and sinew
display of his muscles. The air thickened, her heart already beating
too quickly from being startled. Corbyn advanced, and Reyna retreated
into the steam. A flash of silver in his eyes stopped her, his
nostrils flaring with an unspoken thrill. Oh, my. Heady desire had
her mind swimming, a new fantasy born in her blood. What it would be
like to be hunted by a man like him? To be caught?
“Reyna.”
A quiet moan of entreaty edged with warning, his eyes widening as if
she'd spoken aloud.
“I
used your toothbrush,” she blurted, a self-defense quirk triggered
by the increasing lust. “Three times.”
Corbyn
stilled, before he groaned out a miserable laugh and shook his head.
“I don't know why that sounded so fucking naughty, but coming from
you, I think anything pertaining to things being in your mouth
multiple times should come with a damn advisory label.”
Reyna
laughed, her cheeks burning red and Corbyn touched them softly, as if
trying to feel her blush. His gaze outlined the shape of her mouth,
and she suddenly felt something a lot deeper than mere lust trying to
snake its way through her system to dig its roots into her heart.
“You
stayed,” she whispered.
“I
told you I would and I keep my word, Reyna,” he stated clearly,
leaving no room for doubt. “Always.”
