Captive of the Royal Triad

The Old Ways, Book 4

By: Corin Cain

Narrated by: Jessica Schly

I defied the brutal alien prince. By their harsh laws, my life is at the mercy of his royal triad.

Bruton. Prince of the Aurelian Empire, eight-foot tall of brutal, muscled strength, flanked by the alien warriors of his triad. He is no royal. He is a savage, a colossal warlord who commands through pure violence.

And my fate is in his hands. He believes I hold the keys to victory. His triad storms into my research station drenched in blood and sweat to judge my life’s work. And when my creations go haywire and nearly kill us all, the threat to the Prince must be answered.

I’m hauled onto his warship, thrown into a cell, terrified and alone, when the cruel tyrant who put me behind bars comes to me with an offer.

Serve as the alien prince's maid. Obey his orders, attend to him perfectly in front of his soldiers, pour the arrogant tyrant's wine and mop his floors. One mistake, and I’ll face a different kind of discipline. Bruton has no time to hunt down his Fated Mate. His one focus is war.

But when his nostrils flare and he tastes my scent, his blood boils. His eyes roll back, every thread of his body inflamed with a singular need. To claim me, to make me his, to Bond me to him for eternity.

Prince Bruton is already wedded to death. My scent rips him in two, forcing him to choose between his war…and the chance that I could be his Fated Mate, the one woman in the universe who can bear his triad’s royal heirs.
