His Traitor’s Heart

Keeping the Peace: A buffalo shifter doesn't consider himself worthy of a mate, but Fate has other ideas.

Warsaw knew that joining the rogues was wrong. Except, when his best friend begged him to help a pair of disgraced ex-councilmen, he couldn't say no. After all, he could never have the man he secretly loved. The guy was already mated. Warsaw joined the wrong side of a shifter war, and they lost.

While most consider Warsaw lucky because he wasn't sentenced to death for his crimes, he doesn't feel that way. The man he'd loved is dead, as is his best friend, both having died due to the shifter battle. Feeling empty inside, Warsaw does his job in silence, ignoring the nasty looks and slurs from others. His one joy is his little Shih Tzu, Jasmine.

When Jasmine is viciously attacked by an unknown shifter hell-bent on punishing Warsaw further, a sympathetic acquaintance introduces him to a warlock to help his dying dog. To Warsaw's shock, the warlock-Urskin Claspin-is his mate. Except, after everything that he's done in the name of love, Warsaw doesn't believe he deserves the happiness and peace a mate would surely give him. Can Warsaw figure out how to accept Fate's gift while discovering who still has it out for him?
