But while his fellow dragons from Charok have been able to find their fated partners in this strange new world, Julian knows his is nowhere on Earth. Naomi had secretly left Charok years ago when she became so ill, the energies of the planet would no longer sustain her failing dragon form.

Little does she know the same wizard also helped several other dragons escape during the War of Storms, and years later on Earth, she’s shocked to find the one shifter she knew as her one true mate back on Charok. Reuniting with Julian is like a dream come true, until the couple discovers a powerful demon has slipped into the living realm from the Otherworld along with Naomi. When they discover what this evil being is capable of, will these fated mates be pulled apart once and for all? Julian's Mate is a 30,000 word standalone novella with steamy shifter scenes intended for readers 18+.
