Storm has always been in love with Makai, so he's happy when they turn out to be mates, only to be devastated when Makai fights the bond.

Makai never imagined that the ray of sunshine that was Storm could ever be his, and now his biggest fear is that he might lose control of the wild beast lurking within him and hurt Storm.

When they find out they're a part of an elite group called the Protectors of the Moon, they have to navigate their new relationship while fighting for the greater good, and Makai realizes he might lose the best thing in his life if he doesn't learn to swallow his fears and trust his wild wolf.

Storm's Beast

I wake up a few hours later and take a shower before Aris comes in to speak with me. 


She gives me a once-over when I move from the chair by the bed to the sofa to sit with her. 


I shrug. "I'm fine. I just need him to wake up." 


She casts a glance at the bed. "He'll rouse soon. I've asked them to bring him a tray of food because he'll be ravenous when he wakes up." 


"I'm hoping he does. I already miss talking to him, which is weird because I'm used to going days or weeks without us speaking to each other. Especially when he's outside the pack." 


"Storm has tried to get me on it, and he has even gotten me one but I always forget to charge it. He gave up and resorted to emails because I use my laptop frequently." 


Aris burst out laughing. "You're a fascinating contradiction, Makai."
