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

The next morning, Makai wakes up before me, taking a shower before nudging me awake to get ready for the day. When I return from the bathroom, he's already dressed in black jeans and a simple white shirt that stretches against his wide chest. His lustrous hair is tied back from his face with his leather strip. 


"You're drooling," he teases when I can't stop staring at him while I dress. 


I grin shamelessly at him. "Can you blame me? You look delicious." 


"So do you," he says, even though I'm wearing old blue jeans and an even older plain blue T-shirt. 


I laugh. "You're such a charmer, Kai. I look plain." 


"You look perfect," he assures me, then shakes his head. "Well, almost perfect. You only need this to be perfect."
