She’s my mate, my destiny… but can I trust her?
Sloane: I was a Marine, a CIA operative, and now I’m alone on a mission no one can know about. The last thing I need is to be rescued by a massive, silver-skinned Space Guardian who makes my pulse race and my skin burn with the appearance of strange, fated marks. Vraax is strong, determined, and far too tempting—but I have a job to do, and trusting him would only get in my way.
Yet, as I get dragged deeper into the secrets of the Ohrurs, I begin to realize my mission and the Space Guardians might not be so different after all. And Vraax? He’s not just a distraction—he’s a danger to the walls I’ve built around my heart.
Vraax: I know the moment I see her—Sloane is mine. My mate. The marks on our bodies don’t lie. But she’s no ordinary human. She’s sharp, lethal, and guarding secrets even I can’t uncover. When I convince her to help me capture two Ohrurs, I think I’m earning her trust. I think we’re becoming something more.
Then I learn the truth.
She’s been hiding things from me—things that could change everything. But the more we uncover, the deeper we fall into a web of deception stretching far beyond anything we imagined. A subterranean world, an unexpected ally on Astrionis, and a stranger with impossible abilities… all leading to a single question.
Can I trust my mate, or is she the one who will betray me?
