Sasha. Council Enforcers, #18

Sasha doesn't want a mate. He barely even wants friends, but he's given up on trying to keep them out of his life. He's content as he is, working at the bar in Gillham and going home to his empty apartment. It's better that way, and safer-for everyone. Because Sasha has a secret, and he's already responsible for one death, and he doesn't want anything like that to happen again. Hunter has always been content with hookups and one-night stands.
He's never really thought about finding his mate-until he does. Sasha is standoffish, and while Hunter wishes he were an easier man to deal with, he's ready to wait as long as he needs to in order to have him in his life. Still, when he and his team are sent on a mission in the Brazilian rainforest, he hopes that will give Sasha enough time to make a decision about them. Sasha realizes he's made a mistake by pushing Hunter away when Hunter doesn't come back from the mission.
Hunter is stuck in a rainforest crawling with members of the Beasts gang, and he needs help. Will Sasha be able to help him, or will he lose Hunter before he even has him?
