Bound in Fire and Fang

Born half-kitsune and half-vampire, Aimi has survived a lifetime of chains, cruelty, and silence. Sold into the household of the powerful Inugami clan, she expected nothing but obedience and fear-until the young heir, Lord Kairo, saved her from the guards who tried to break her. Since that day, her heart has belonged to the one man she can never have.

But when Aimi's first heat ignites, her dormant instincts explode...and drag Kairo into a feral rut that binds them together for a week of uncontrollable desire. Duty demands he marry a noblewoman. Instinct demands he claim the only female who can trigger his need.

When Kairo's arranged bride arrives and sets her sights on destroying Aimi, danger becomes deadly. And Aimi's worst fear comes true:
she is pregnant with the heir's forbidden child.

To protect her baby, Aimi flees into the wilderness with only desperation to guide her. But when the palace healer confesses the truth, Kairo snaps the chains of tradition, cancels the wedding, and hunts for the mate who should never have run.

Driven by love, rage, and instinct, Kairo will cross kingdoms to find her.
And when he does, he will never let her go again.

A runaway slave.
A rejected political match.
A fated mating written in blood, fire, and fang.

This is a dark, heated paranormal romance where devotion is feral, love is forbidden, and fate refuses to be denied.
