Act of Command (Immortal Ops: PSI-Ops, #4)

Captain Corbin Jones is an immortal lion-shifter commander who's spent centuries mastering battlefields but never learned to surrender control of his heart. Mae Bertelot is a college senior with untapped supernatural gifts and a dangerous ability she's spent her whole life suppressing. When a chance encounter on a university campus triggers a primal fated bond, the centuries-old operative and the woman who can bring men to their knees with a song collide with devastating intensity.Corbin is used to being in control. As a centuries-old operative and commander of his own elite PSI-Ops team, he's navigated immortality with strategic precision and emotional distance. But when an unfamiliar supernatural scent crosses his path on campus, every instinct fires at once. The woman wearing it is nothing like what his mother arranged—she's younger, untamed, and utterly captivating. Mae Bertelot looks like she stepped out of his fantasies, and his body demands he claim her immediately, consequences be damned.Mae has never dated and certainly didn't expect to lock eyes with a man who looks like he was sculpted by the gods themselves. The supernatural connection is instantaneous and overwhelming, but trusting it terrifies her. Her gift—an uncontrollable ability to compel men through song that once caused an entire schoolyard brawl—is dangerous, and she's spent her life suppressing it. Now she's drowning in desire for a man who ignites her supernatural nature with every touch, and she can't control the burning attraction consuming her. The worst part: he's imprisoned at the university after their first encounter, and she's the only one who can free him.Together they're a force neither can command. Passion wars with duty. Control shatters against fated connection. And as a government conspiracy tightens around them both, Corbin must choose between the mission his team depends on and the woman his very soul recognizes as his own.
