When he discovers they're Wrothian he refuses to take one as a mate until the Council threatens to strip him of his warrior status and let him die in dishonor.

Unaware that her sire caused the deaths of the Zarronian females, including Valan's mother and twin sister, she reveals her identity and demands to be freed. A Complication They Didn't Expect… Enraged to be bonded to the daughter of his most hated enemy, Valan treats Lia as a prisoner rather than a beloved bondmate. When the Zarronians learn her identity they demand she be punished for her sire's war crimes. Valan realizes too late that he's endangered his mate's life. The fever they share will keep them together but only love can make them want each other. Author’s Note: Valan’s Bondmate is an erotic romance that includes explicit sex scenes and mature language. If such material offends you, please don't buy this book. Also, my hero is an anti-hero - meaning he is flawed but has redeeming qualities…for instance, he'd fight to the death for the woman he loves. If you don’t like bad boys, then please don’t buy this book.
