I am a Drakarn warrior, protector of my people, master of blade and sky. Battles and threats are known to me, but she is a new mystery. Terra storms into my world, unlike any female I've encountered. Smooth-skinned, wingless, clawless… yet she radiates a fierce strength that ignites a firestorm within me. Her defiancé only fuels my desire. Her scent is my obsession, her touch a torment I crave. Every instinct within me screams mate. She's stubborn, resisting the bond that pulls us together, a bond she doesn't yet understand. But when a Drakarn finds his mate, he does not let go. Terra harbors secrets, shadows that threaten the fragile trust blooming between us. And when those secrets draw danger to her, I will unleash the inferno. She is mine. My heart. My soul. I will scorch the skies and obliterate anyone who dares to harm who I cherish above all.
