Haven 6

Flawless

Being mauled by a werewolf and claimed in front of an audience is not the romantic experience Lynk Braddock envisioned for his mating. Strong and dominant Kieran is everything he craves in a partner, but the man is also kind—something Lynk fears his dark past will destroy.

Kieran Delaney can see the need for surrender in Lynk’s eyes, and all he wants is to wrap him up and protect him from the world.

Still, while Lynk’s submission soothes his wolf, Kieran wants a partner, not a doormat.

The race is on to find the remaining Braddock witches, and an allying coven suddenly becomes their enemy. With a vampire convinced Lynk is his mate—going so far as to bite him—the Council steps in to find the truth. Will Kieran and Lynk’s relationship crumble under the politics? Or can they prove their love is meant to last for eternity?

Prologue

“Don’t cheat,” Lynk warned the little runt as he paused the game and went to answer the doorbell.

Wren resumed the game the minute he turned his back and giggled like a loon as he raced his car across the finish line. “I won!”

“Cheater!” Lynk called, laughing just as enthusiastically as Wren.

The five-year-old pixie was about the cutest damn thing he’d ever seen in his life. He was young, so full of life, and everything was magical and exciting for him.

He’d never been around kids much before, didn’t know the first thing about them, but it had taken approximately ten minutes for him to fall in love with Wren. He knew he wasn’t as lost as his brother, Torren, though. Hopefully, with a little luck, Torren and his mate, Aslan, would be able to adopt Wren and give him a real home.

Still chuckling, he reached the front door and pulled it open. The laughter died in his throat, and he felt like he’d had the wind knocked out of him. The most stunning man he’d ever seen stood on the doorstep, his black hair cut short, just barely curling over his ears.

Tall, much taller than Lynk, with muscles that looked to be sculpted from marble at the hands of an expert artist.

Smooth, creamy skin, with just the hint of sun, pulled tight over high cheekbones that highlighted gorgeous, mesmerizing, blue eyes.

Lynk would have continued his leisurely exploration of the stranger, but he found himself lost in those cerulean eyes, unable to look away, move, or even breathe.

The stranger stared back at him, a low growl rumbling in his chest like rolling thunder. The heat of desire flashed in his eyes, turning them a darker shade of blue. Leaning forward slightly, his nostrils flared as he sniffed at Lynk’s neck.

The sound of ripping fabric snapped Lynk out of his hypnosis, but not before he got a good look at the huge, russet-colored werewolf lunging for him. Not afraid for himself, but for Wren’s safety, Lynk backpedalled, intent on slamming the door in the beast’s face.

The wolf was faster, though, blocking the door with one hairy arm as he prowled closer, his gaze locked on the pulsing vein on Lynk’s throat. His other arm shot out, looping around Lynk’s waist and crushing him
