Destiny lies along an uncharted course… Commission Captain and special operative Sevan Vasil has enough problems without the strange dreams that seem to be his mind’s version of a cruel joke. No woman could be that perfect…except perhaps his fated mate. No human or alien alive would dare answer a lion-shifter’s call. Not with the state of unrest and anti-supernatural movement in the universe. When the raven-haired beauty who invaded his dreams appears on his communication screen, he knows everything is changing, and maybe destiny is on his side. And just maybe, she is his mate. He just needs to find a way to keep her safe on her own planet before he can keep her for eternity.
When the heart sets its course, even home is no escape… Alpha male shifter, Lieutenant Commander Bradi Janelle isn't looking for a mate. Hell, he goes out of his way to avoid the prospect altogether—until the sexy little number in the infirmary makes a mockery of his ladies’ man façade. Now, trapped with her in an escape pod, she’s way too close for comfort. Too close to deny himself the pleasure of her body.
She’s a deadly panther-shifter with a mission. He’s the cocky alpha pilot who might just be her downfall. As the fierce leader of the Sargaidia guards , Nina Janelle doesn’t need anyone—especially not a smug, know-it-all pilot with a smile that could melt steel. But her panther-shifter heat cycle is becoming impossible to control, and no amount of casual partners can ease the burning ache. Only one man stirs a desire too dangerous to ignore: Commission Officer Jordan Vasil . The problem? She’d rather launch him out an airlock than admit it. Jordan has faced death more times than he can count, but nothing compares to the agony of craving a mate who wants nothing to do with him. Nina’s in his blood, his bones, his soul. When he finds her in crippling pain, fighting her shifter instincts to keep him at arm's length, Jordan makes a choice. He’ll give her everything she needs—whether she likes it or not. But when Nina’s brother goes missing under suspicious circumstances, she has no choice but to rely on the one man who makes her lose control. Trapped in close quarters on a mission through dangerous, uncharted galaxies, the tension between them explodes. Nina’s determined to keep her heart locked down, but Jordan’s not just an alpha—he’s her fated mate . In a universe where enemies lurk in every shadow and alliances are fragile , surrendering to their passion could be the most dangerous move of all. But resisting it? Impossible.
