Nox
People see me as the asshole who deals with the hellish jobs. That's because people fear me, which is how I like it.
Unfortunately, I also have to put up with the tiger inside me. My beast should have protected me when I was younger, but instead, all he's ever wanted are pats and attention.
I've hated that tiger... until him.
Our fated mate.

Single life as a young college professor with anxiety is trying. Add in my poor coordination and I often wonder if there's someone in the world who will ever accept me as I am.
Even the men my parents try to set me up with don't work out-that second date never does come.
But after one heart-stopping, breathtaking glance from a stranger, I figure that none of the men before him are meant for me.
Thankfully, after a mugging and meeting a loveable tiger, Nox is back in my life.
Now all I have to do is keep him there.
