Marked by the Jaguar by Zoey Indiana

Nile sold his soul for power… until Rye threatens everything.

Nile, a jaguar shifter, made a deal with the devil to gain control over dark magick. He bartered his chance at a fated mate for power, believing that the only way to master the art of healing was through magick. But when his fated mate, Rye, shows up unexpectedly, he refuses to claim her, even going as far as locking her in a closet to keep her safe.

Rye, a human in the know, always believed that finding her fated mate was her true purpose in life. But when she finally meets Nile, he rejects her and keeps her locked away. As she learns the truth about Nile’s dark secret, she realizes that he needs her now more than ever. And she’ll do anything to protect him, even if it means lying to the ones she trusts most.

As Nile and Rye struggle to navigate their complicated relationship, they must also confront the forces that threaten to tear them apart. Nile’s magick draws the attention of dangerous enemies, and Rye becomes a pawn in their twisted game.

With danger lurking at every turn, Nile and Rye must fight to keep their love and their magick safe. Will they be able to overcome the obstacles in their way, or will the darkness consume them both?
