VIGGO ORIONSON DOESN’T LOSE. Not on the rugby field, not in life, and not when it comes to Bailey—the human woman he’s about to marry, and highly protective of. But when fate binds her to his opponent, Viggo is faced with raging jealousy. He’ll fight instinct, a rival, and even destiny itself before he lets her go… but keeping her might mean making room for someone he never expected to want. Bailey Kapoor thought her life was falling into place. Engaged to a legend, established in her career, building a life for herself—until one little collision changes everything. Now caught between the male she chose and the one she’s bound to, Bailey must navigate a bond that refuses to be ignored. Because walking away isn’t an option… and neither is choosing just one. Bennett Highmeadow is a rising star with everything to lose, and he’s spent years looking up to Viggo—not challenging him for the most important thing in his life. Now mated to his hero’s fiancée, Bennett is willing to risk everything to break the bond. Because only a fool would take his idol’s woman. With moon cycle imminent and instincts turning dangerous, the three are forced into an impossible choice: fight the bond—or surrender to a love that was never meant to be shared. A kinky, rivals-to-lovers, why choose monster romance with fated mates, and a guaranteed HEA. This novella is a standalone in the Clash of Creatures series.
