Princess Mira was never meant to belong to a man like Mahaya. He’s a nobody raised by mortals,trained as a thief, shaped by shadows, surviving as a street rat on the edges of both worlds. Worse, he’s a nightmix: the forbidden offspring of human and larakyte panther, his inner darkness feared by ordinary mortals and shifters alike.
When Mira becomes a target, Mahaya makes a brutal choice.
He takes her.
To Mira, he is nothing but her captor, dangerous, savage, and impossible to trust. Yet the longer she is bound to him, the harder it becomes to ignore the heat between them. His touch awakens a hunger as dark as his nature, one that blurs the line between fear and desire.
Mahaya knows he may never earn her forgiveness. But if he lets her go, she will die.
And loving him may be the one thing she cannot survive.
Mel Teshco loves to write scorching paranormal, sci-fi and contemporary stories. Not easy with five cats, two dogs and a fat black thoroughbred vying for attention, especially when Mel’s also busily stuffing around on Facebook. With only one daughter now living at home to feed two minute noodles, she still shakes her head at how she managed to write with three daughters and three stepchildren living under the same roof. Not to mention Mr. Semi-Patient (the one and same husband hoping for early retirement...he’s been waiting a few years now...) Clearly anything is possible, even in the real world.
