Feral Adaptation

I wasn’t meant to bond. She wasn’t meant to matter.

I’m a covert operative—trained to infiltrate, eliminate, and vanish without a trace.

But a last-minute reassignment saddles me with the wrong kind of healer as my cover—one who sees through the mask, straight to my core.

Too deep. Too fast. Too close to obsession. And a mission too important to pull back.

When she sacrifices herself to save me, I do the one thing I was never supposed to do—I bond.

Now she’s trapped on the enemy’s ship… and I’m about to unleash a secret that defies the laws of nature.

Because when danger calls, it triggers a feral adaptation. One that neither of us can control.
