FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE ALPHA'S MATE: When Mikhale Savage rescues a young human woman and, defying his brother the Alaskan Alpha, brings her to his home in Raven Falls, he gets much more than he bargains for. Thoryn Michaels is no ordinary woman. The prodigy of an unlikely union between a human and a Therion werewolf, Thoryn is what Mikhale's people call sielos draugus – soulmate of a werewolf! To Mikhale, however, she is a thorn in his side. Destined to be the Alphamate to his brother because of her sielos draugus bloodline, Thoryn is completely off limits to Mikhale…and yet she torments him, offering herself to him at every turn and even going so far as to sabotage his relations with other women! He is a man who is being pushed to the very edge of his sanity; only his loyalty and love for his brother, the Alpha, keeps his raging need for the woman in check and he longs for the day when will truly be unavailable for him—if only his brother would hurry and make it so!Thoryn has no intention of becoming Alphamate—to Mikhale's brother, or any other Alpha. Mikhale is the only man she desires. The only man she loves. But how far will she go to tempt him? She has used all her limited experience and womanly wiles to lure him in, all to no avail—the man is beyond stubborn! So when a handsome newcomer arrives in the clan's territory, Thoryn decides to turn her attention elsewhere. Maybe that will gain Mikhale's notice. Her plan backfires, however, when the newcomer turns out to have a devious plan of his own. He has heard about the sielos draugus in the Alaskan territory and knows that she is unmated…which makes her ripe for the picking. He has plans, you see, he longs for the days when his kind were worshipped by humans as gods and wishes to regain that status as the apex predators they are. But to do that he will need to be a strong Alpha, and he will need a strong bloodline…and the fastest way to both will be to take a sielos draugus as a mate, albeit against her will!When Mikhale finds out that Thoryn has been taken he is beside himself with anger, guilt, and grief. In a race against time he tracks where her kidnapper has taken her, confronting her captor and, in a bloody battle with a deadly outcome, must fight to win back the only woman he has ever loved.
