"You just signed my people's death warrant," he growled in the turbulent cabin. His amber eyes burned in the dark, the future Alpha's aura sucking the air away.
"I'm saving you from your savagery," I shot back, chin high. My fingertips trembled, but I kept the cold scientist facade.
His rough hand seized my jaw-scorching, possessive. My scent made his shoulder totem writhe. Under moonlight, the beast inside him roared to break free.

She wanted science to "cure" the beast. Never expecting to become his only antidote.

Cecilia Perrin, brilliant ice-cold chief scientist, is days from success: a serum to strip werewolves of savage power and force peaceful human integration-or so she believes.
Until Fenris Couto, ruthless future Alpha, kidnaps her into wolf territory.
One touch. One heartbeat. Truth burns in her veins: she is his fated mate.
She despises him. He is her enemy. Yet her body craves his mark, while her mind demands she finish the serum-to save humanity and destroy him.
Deeper digging reveals darkness: her needle isn't salvation-it's a weapon aimed at Fenris. Governments, corporations, even his blood tighten the noose to strip his power forever, using her as the final key.
Torn between her mission and the primal pull, Cecilia must choose:
Complete the serum and doom her fated mate...
...or ally with the beast she fears, risking becoming one.
If they fail, human-wolf balance shatters-and her sister could be next.
Enemies by blood.
Bound by fate.
Doomed by science.
Some mates save each other.
Others end the world trying.
Which are they?
