His destiny is to free the Raizarch wolves from the vampire king … … but to do so he must mate a female he doesn’t know or 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. When Zeveride finally leaves to make things easier on the both of them, Toren tries to forget him. Except he can’t forget. What’s worse, as the days go by, Toren can feel that Zeveride is in trouble. **Warning: Contains a sweet MM relationship.
