Mythic Divine. The Centaurs, #3

A defiant prisoner. A duty-bound counselor. A passion that could shatter a kingdom. When a ragged Nymph is captured near the royal border, Khristos-the feared Centaur Templar-takes charge. His mission: evaluate the suspect, Trixania, and uncover the rebels' secrets. But his brazen captive is no ordinary detainee. She's lethally beautiful, sharp-tongued, and hides a past that could bring the entire realm to its knees.
To uncover her truth, he must form an intimacy more perilous than any confession. and risk a surrender that will defy every oath he's sworn. Trix is no victim. She's a former Legion assassin with one goal: find the guard who once saved her. Her capture is a setback; the towering centaur High Priest with a shadowed soul is a complication. Templar Khristos suspects her lies; his quiet strength and piercing gaze threaten the walls around her heart.
Every forbidden touch, every charged exchange ignites a hunger she cannot control and a bond she never wanted. When rebel forces attack, all evidence points to Trixania. Now, Khristos faces an impossible choice: uphold his sacred duty and condemn the female who holds his heart. or unleash the primal stallion within, betray his crown, and fight for the mate destiny has forged in fire. In a world of divided loyalties, they must decide what to sacrifice: their hearts, their honor, or the kingdom itself.
