Leopard's Surrender

My mate has crossed solar systems to find me. I can sense him, even if I cannot reach him through our bond.

But when we finally come together, our union is nothing like I imagined. Despite our rising attraction, Dakar refuses to claim me as his mate until he rids the universe of the one responsible for the genocide of the Ximeran females — his own brother.

When my family is threatened, it becomes clear our paths are more intertwined than I ever realized. More, even, than just the lives of a shifter and her mate.

His war is my war. And convincing him to accept my mark may be our only hope of surviving the battle to come.
