SYNOPSIS:
An Enemies to Lovers Shifter, Vampire True Mates story.
Justice Volkov is the youngest Alpha Zenith to ever lead the wolf shifters. Following in his father’s large paw prints was a responsibility he met head on. Now at age thirty-three, he is alpha of the alphas. As a direct descendant of the original Siberian pack, his wolf is bigger and stronger than Justice, himself is sometimes able to control.
“His wolf howled long and hard but Justice kept it inside. It felt like a bass drum beating against his rib cage. The harsh breaths, angry snarls and the determined pacing inside him was overtaking him. All the while… his mate kept calling.”
Justice takes his role of leadership and his legacy very seriously. He has little time for romance, not to mention a true mate. His packs are his priority. With a human government trying to regulate them, an uprising of rogue shifters, and a violent team of scientists trying to experiment on them, Justice has his hands way too full.
Chadwick ‘Wick’ Bentley is not enthusiastic when the captain of his escort tells him he has to leave his comfortable London home and go back to the States. As the Vampire King, he has no choice but to get his species back in line before they cause anymore chaos. At over two-hundred years old, Wick is no one to trifle with, but his smooth, charismatic manner makes him quite unique, despite the negative reputation vampires have. Wick has had nothing but time up to this point. He doesn’t feel the need to make issues pressing. Nothing is urgent in his life. Until he meets Justice. His beloved.
“Natural enemies can’t be mates.” Or so Justice thought. He knows his skepticism and rejection is hurting his mate, so while he fights their connection, Wick gets help from a source very close to Justice to help him win his beloved’s heart. Wick is a force all on his own, but when he’s blessed with a special gift from the Mother herself, not even Justice’s powerful wolf can prevent the prophesy from being fulfilled.
This story DOES NOT contain/mention MPREG. No multiple pairings. It does not end on a cliffhanger and has an HEA.
Warning: This book is MM paranormal: If you DO NOT like hot, alpha men shifting into large wolves, or vampires feeding from their mates, this may not be your read.
Wow!! As I began reading, I was pulled in from the first page, and this continued for the rest of the book. We first meet Justice, who is the Alpha Zenith of the wolf shifters. We also meet his brothers and sister, who are also alphas, but Justice is the Alpha of all Alphas in the Wolf Shifter packs. We also meet Wick, who is the Vampire King. He is adorable even if he is a vampire!! He also takes his legacy very seriously. I guess sometimes he was coming over as sort of cold, not having a heart at all - but perhaps it was because he has never met anyone who made him feel otherwise.
Two completely different men, but for whom the fates have decided they should be true mates – however, someone should have warned Justice and Wick what was about to happen. The two meet, and all Justice can hear his wolf telling him that is my mate. Wick is not doing any better, as he can hear the blood running through Justice calling out to him to feed.
After their first meeting, neither Justice or Wick wanted to believe what it was they were feeling, and went their separate ways…… but The Mother has decreed they should be together, so the mating forces are working at full force to try and overcome their stubbornness – and boy was there some hot sex to read about when they accepted the mate bond. However, there is something special about Wick, and as soon as they bond this is revealed, and I am not sure who was more surprised.
Can Wick and Justice accept each other as they are? Will things change for them both, they are as different as chalk and cheese?
To me, I loved the concept of this book, I have read other shifter books, but I found this one to be so different, especially as their biggest enemy was human. As you read, it soon becomes obvious that sometimes opposites are more compatible than you realise, and together they can become more or less invincible.
