Lovers of the Light (Cocooned in Love Book 2)

Althar, a noble and loyal Luminae, spent most of his life dedicated to protecting and serving his community, never once thinking of his own future. Tall, with pale green skin and striking golden eyes, Althar was well-respected among his people. His best friend, Feydris, found his cherished mate in Haleigh, and Althar played a crucial role in helping them raise their brood. But despite his deep care for his friends, a part of Althar longed for his own connection-a mate he could love and protect.

During a sacred gathering beneath the Lightbringer tree, Althar received a vision of his future mate. The tree, glowing with divine energy, showed him a petite human woman-pale-skinned, with nearly white blonde hair and stunning blue eyes. She appeared so fragile and small compared to Althar's large, Luminae form, yet there was a bond between them that he felt deep in his core. The Light had chosen her for him, and from that moment on, Althar couldn't shake the image of her from his mind.

Driven by the vision, Althar began a personal journey, seeking out his mate across the forests and beyond. He encountered many challenges, both physical and emotional, but his determination never wavered. Along the way, he grew, learning more about his own heart and the strength it took to love and protect.

Eventually, Althar found her-a human woman who had crash-landed on Zora, much like Haleigh. She was lost, scared, and injured, but Althar knew immediately she was the one. He cared for her, protecting her as she healed and learned about her new world. Though she was wary at first, the bond between them grew, their connection undeniable.

Althar's mate, delicate and human, was strong in her own way. Together, they settled near the Lightbringer tree, raising a brood of their own. Althar, now complete with his cherished mate, lived out his days with love, light, and the family he had always dreamed of.
