They put us in cages. They should have killed us. I'm strapped to a table in a government black site, my resonance smothered by technology that shouldn't exist. Somewhere in this hellhole, Rafe is being broken into a weapon. I can feel him through the bond—feral, fading, holding onto the memory of me like a lifeline. And Magnus? The monster we thought we'd defeated? He's running the program. They want our child. They want to harvest the first true hybrid and breed an army. They think distance will shatter what we built. They think walls can hold a bond forged in fire. They don't know my daughter is a void singularity who shorts out their dampeners every time she kicks. Breaking out is only the beginning. Magnus is rebuilding his control grid. If he succeeds, every shifter becomes a slave—including the man I'd burn the world to save. Rafe claimed me in chaos. Fought for me in madness. Loved me when loving me meant losing everything. Now it's my turn. We've lost our home. Our freedom. Our pack. But they forgot one You can't cage a mated pair. You can only make them desperate. Bound Mate is the explosive finale of the Direwolf Academy series. Desperate prison break. Fated mates fighting their way back to each other. A final battle for the future of all shifters. 4 chili peppers. Guaranteed HEA.
