He's great with my little kids. There's just one problem: the first time I touched him, my exile mark felt like it was on fire-and not in the good way. Tyr: As an exile from Griffin Island, I never thought I had a fated mate. Then I met her, a fellow exile. And because of our clan's magic, we can never touch. Now I'm showing her how to get along in the human world, introducing her to my favorite things, and helping her care for her twins. But if I can't touch her soon, it's going to drive me mad. I can't touch her and can't live without her. I'm going to fix this for her . . . even if it means going back to the clan that exiled us both.
