Zeke Torres was always picked on because he was a scared mouse shifter. When his mother married a hawk shifter, he had to suffer through his stepbrother’s cruelty on a daily basis. He fought hard for his independence and vowed to never be under the control of anyone else.

Rangi Ku is an eagle shifter and director of communications for the Alliance’s northern territory. Working late one night, he is shocked when his computer is hacked (a feat that no one had ever done), with a message asking for help. He saves the man who hacked into their network and is surprised to find Zeke is his mate.

When Alek, their Alpha Primus, accuses Zeke of being a traitor, Zeke must find the courage to put aside his reservations and trust Rangi to protect him. A predator mating his prey may not seem plausible, but Rangi is determined to show his little mouse he is more than just a bird of prey.
