I never wanted a mate.

Especially not her—the notorious assassin known for killing Alphas. 

But as fate would have it, she became mine.

Fortunately, we have an agreement. One where I rarely have to see her and she pretends I don’t exist.

Everything’s fine. 

Until she’s kidnapped by a sadistic Vampire Alpha hell-bent on turning her into his own personal Omega blood bag.

Now I’m the only one who can hear her screams. 

And I’m really f-cking pissed off. 

I might not want her as a mate. But she’s mine.

Mine to protect. 

Mine to avenge. 

Mine to hunt.
