If she touches me, I die. If she doesn’t, I die anyway.

I denied my fated mate when I was sixteen. Stood in my father’s office and told everyone she wasn’t mine. She punched me in the jaw and disappeared for almost thirty years.

Now she’s back. A manticore-shifter assassin with a five-million-dollar bounty, lethal skin, and the same hazel eyes I’ve been seeing in my sleep since the Academy. She’s moved in to my tree house.

One rule. Don’t touch her skin. Everything else is just furniture.

I’m dying from pre-feral sickness. My hands won’t stop shaking. The only thing that can save me is the mate bond I destroyed.

Whatever it takes to earn her trust back, I’ll do it. Cook for her. Fight for her. Prove I’m not the sixteen-year-old coward who chose his father over her.

She’s not a weapon. She never was. And this time, I’m not letting her walk away.
