Amidst the roar of the inferno, two things became clear:
He was my mate.
And he was about to die.
- Rhys -
I'd always known I would find my mate someday.
I didn't expect him to be dying.
By the time I pull him out of the burning building his life hangs on by a thread. He is a human, delicate and damaged, yet all I can think about is the need to fill him with my fire and claim him for my own.
I need him like I need air.
My fire would burn him to ash.
I wanted his fire to obliterate me.
- Theodore -
He hits me like a semi I never see coming.
The night my boyfriend walks out on me I fall asleep alone; I wake in the midst of an inferno with my apartment burning down around my ears...and see HIM.
Eyes like molten metal. Skin the flames do not burn. A connection I can't ignore.
I can't look away from him.
He's not human.
And our mating will change my life forever.
