If she doesn't accept our mating bond, I will go feral like every unmated male in Black Forest Ridge.
I've spent years looking for my fated mate once I got out of the military. Every Alpha needs their Mate. I never expected to find her in the Ridge looking for a job as the chef at my mother's B&B.
When she finds out she's a shifter too, her entire world flips upside down.
Whatever it takes to show her that fate (and a mating spell) brought us together, I'll do it, even if that means waiting until it's too late. Protecting my mate is my primary objective. It won't be long until she sees our community of witches and shifters as the acceptance and family she's always needed.
She's a match for me in both body and mind – a true alpha female. I will do everything to be worthy of her.
