Hybrid’s Heat

She offered her body to buy her freedom. She never expected the price would be a revolution. Vira Nassir is a brilliant engineer, a cog in the machine of Lupara Station, but her life is on a timer. As a non-citizen, she faces the constant threat of deportation to the silent void of space. Desperate, she accepts a forbidden contract: three nights with the enigmatic Captain Torren Vahl, an elite human-wolf hybrid enforcer, to satisfy his primal rut.
It's a simple, transactional deal. Her body for citizenship. A price she's willing to pay for survival. But Torren is more than just a beast. He is the key to a power she never imagined, a raw, hypnotic force of dominance and desire that awakens a wild hunger within her. In his presence, the lines between duty and lust blur, and the sterile steel corridors of the station become a cage for two predators circling one another.
The deal was meant to be a secret, a scandalous exchange to be forgotten. But when Torren reveals the station's own dark secrets-a corrupt council and a brewing rebellion-Vira realizes her contract is part of a much more dangerous game. He has bound her with his rules, his knot, and his passion. But now he's offering her a choice that goes beyond mere survival. He doesn't just want her body; he wants her mind, her skills, her defiance.
Can she trust this savage enforcer who holds her life in his hands? Or is she just another pawn in a game where the price of freedom could be the annihilation of everyone she's ever known?
