Varek

Falling for the monster who ruined your life? Yeah. That wasn't on my Terrafeara survival bingo card. I've survived this world by making myself untouchable—sharp edges, sharper instincts, and zero room for mistakes. Down here, power is everything. And I've built enough of it to stay alive. Then Varek shows up. Commander of the Riftborn. Rebel leader. Walking, talking weapon with horns, silver eyes … and a bond to me I never asked for. He says he saved me. I say he destroyed everything. Because Varek didn't just claim me as his fated mate—he killed my husband to do it. Now we're stuck in the same city, the same war, and the same impossible pull that won't let either of us walk away. The rifts are getting worse. The rebellion is fracturing. And something bigger is coming—something that could tear every world apart. We should be enemies. We might be each other's only chance. Because in a world built on power, blood, and broken promises … love might be the most dangerous weapon of all. Contains mature themes.
