Embracing Light: McHenry University, Book 2

They tried to break me. I'm Aria, a wolf shifter who made the ultimate sacrifice to save my mates. Cut off from their bonds, I was thrown into a dungeon cloaked in dark magic and bound by unbreakable wards. Alone. Tortured. Slowly unraveling. Just when I was forced to the altar and prepared to give everything to protect Edmund, fate intervened. Zachariah, a powerful dragon shifter and my fated mate, tore through the darkness to set me free. But freedom came with new challenges: mysterious bonds, supernatural politics, and the deep, lingering scars of captivity. While healing in the sacred mountains of Egypt, I found more than peace. I'm reunited with my mates and discovered another soul tied to mine: Malakai, Zachariah's twin. Another dragon. Another mate. Another piece of myself I didn't know was missing. Now, I stand at a crossroads. Return to Washington and rise as Luna of my pack, or stay hidden in Egypt, where it's safe. But when an old enemy escapes and my best friend is taken, the choice is easy. I won't run. I won't break. I will rise. The battle ahead will test every part of me. My strength, my heart, and the fragile, beautiful bonds that could save everything or destroy it all. In a world of dragons, wolves, and ancient magic, I'll either claim my birthright or burn trying. This is a why-choose romance, meaning our main female character doesn't need to choose between her mates. For mature listeners.
