Aslan is used to everyone considering him to be flighty, clueless, and confused. That doesn't mean it's true, but the constant cacophony of voices inside his head makes it kind of hard to pay attention to anything else around him. Torren Braddock has his hands full as a new elder, trying to clean up the mess the former Council members left for him. Adding a mate to his agenda is the last thing he wants to do, but he can't deny the way Aslan draws him in like a moth to a flame. Torren is meant to be his champion, his protector. Aslan is sure of it. When the voices in his head grow louder and more demanding, he realizes something big is coming, something that has the potential to destroy everything-and he'll need his new mate at his side if he hopes to survive it.
