Now mated to their fierce warlord, can their love bridge two colliding worlds?When quantum physicist Dr. Rianna Goodwin ignores warnings and opens a black hole with the supercollider, the experiment accidentally tears open a portal between Earth and mythical realms that was sealed off centuries ago by human witches. As Mythic Alphas in search of their Omegas flood through, Rianna catches the eye of Halox, the orcs' Supreme General, who claims her as his mate.
