The Alpha's Prisoner: A Paranormal Shifter Romance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798245719771)

Two sworn enemies. One deadly cage. A chemical leash that binds them closer than skin.

Kaari is a weapon. Raised by the Lunar Sect, she is an assassin with no past and a heart of ice. Her mission was simple: eliminate the Obsidian Alpha, the ruthless King of the West who burned her world to ash. She doesn't miss. She doesn't fail. Until she wakes up in a glass cell, stripped of her weapons, staring into the golden eyes of her target.

Phade is a king. The Alpha of the Obsidian Clan doesn't fear death, but he fears the cage. Captured by a shadowy organization known as the Chiron Group, he faces a torture worse than silver chains. They haven't just captured him; they've experimented on him.

The Experiment: They call it the Chimera Strain. A synthetic virus designed to rewrite biology. It forces a mating bond. It demands proximity. It punishes separation with agony.

Now, the assassin and the king are tethered. If they move more than one hundred feet apart, their nervous systems collapse. To survive the lab, the hunt, and the freezing wilderness, they must move as one. They must share breath, heat, and skin.

But the virus does more than bind their bodies-it blurs the line between hatred and hunger. As Phade fights to protect the woman who was sent to kill him, and Kaari unearths the devastating secrets of her own past, they realize the true danger isn't the scientists hunting them.

It's the lie that they are enemies.

He was supposed to be her trophy. Now, he is her only lifeline.
