Aching for His Mate by Colleen Delaney

For a woman who wants to run, he might be the only one who can get her to stay…

As a citizen of the southern lands, Domitia is used to moving around. She’s sailed the seas, hopped from city to city, and never stayed in one place very long. When the dragons grabbed her on a raid and traded her to the wolves, suddenly she’s living in a wolf city and expected to take part in some very animalistic rituals.
While Iota’s friends have spent the last months pairing off and beginning their happily ever afters, he’s been impatiently waiting in the wings. All he’s ever wanted is to find his mate, but the moment he’s paired with Domitia, the threat of wild wolves on the border of Luven has him leaving her behind to protect the city.
When a brutal attack leaves Iota injured and broken, Domitia steps into her place as his caregiver. With a stubborn wolf acting the part of terrible patient and a strong woman determined to make their relationship work, this pair will have to relinquish their independence and open their hearts and minds to building a future together.
