Have you ever had a doctor tell you that you’re dying and have only three months to live? As you struggle to accept the inevitable, even though you’re far from ready, you find out there’s a way for you to live.

The catch? It involves getting intimate with your fated mate repeatedly(a lot), his semen healing you each time.
Yeah, that was Ismena Crane’s situation.
Easy, right? She only needed to find her fated mate and stay close to him to enjoy a long, healthy life.

Yeah, that was Ismena Crane’s situation.
Easy, right? She only needed to find her fated mate and stay close to him to enjoy a long, healthy life.
But there’s a huge problem.
Not only did she discover there’s a hierarchy in the shifter kingdom, but her fated mate happens to be the Alpha King—the most powerful and terrifying of them all. And he also hated humans. A lot.
His only interactions with humans end in bloodshed, tearing them apart limb by limb. Her limbs may be failing, but Ismena would like to hold onto them for a while, thank you very much.
Oh, and he was scary as hell. Larger than life. Intense as double hell. He’s not only a werewolf but a mountain lion too. How does that even work?
It also didn’t help that they met under terrible circumstances, and now he was hunting her, not because he wanted to mate with her, either.
Needless to say, she has to battle her fight-or-flight instincts whenever he’s close, and guess which one always won?

It really shouldn’t be this hard to survive. But when faced with a terminal illness and a male who hates and scares the living daylights out of her, Ismena was in a classic situation of being caught between a rock and a very terrifying, very intimidating place.
