He's protective, wild and vicious. And hers. If only he didn't terrify her.
For over a year, Mauviek has done his part to keep the humans safe from the dangers that surround them on Xavren. All it took was one stupid move by a group of them to push clan war into their territory. That's when he first saw and rescued Natalie. Before the night ended, the vicious barbarian came out to play, leaving a trail of blood and death behind. Visions of what happened to her haunt him. If she belonged to him, protecting her would be on his terms.
Natalie knows Mauviek saved her. And still, she can't help being afraid of the violence in him. But she's even more terrified of the dangers he protects her from. She feels safest when he's near but the thought of a claiming by him isn't something she's open to. At least not yet. She's trying to find herself again and leave the past behind, but life is funny like that. Instead, trouble comes knocking.
When everything starts to fall apart, there's only one barbarian she trusts. But this time, his help won't come for free.
