Despair by Nora Ash
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Taken.
Brutalized.
Claimed.
My mate became mine during a heinous experiment designed to punish her for her disobedience. The scientists who locked me in a cage and stole my humanity gave her to me to ravage. To break.
But she is far more than a warm body to distract me from my torment.
She is mine.
They took everything from me – but I won’t let them do the same to her. She fears me, but there is nothing I won’t give to save her.
Even my own life.
Despair is the second book in Nora Ash’s suspense-filled Omegaverse serial, Feral.
Please note: This series gets dark, and it gets dirty. If you don’t enjoy your romance scorching and your alphas rough & dominant, give this book a pass.
Despair
Better storyline than book 1!

The heroine: Lillian – she got a job at a scientific research company that was trying to engineer super-soldiers, though she didn’t know that at the time. When she found that they were torturing the soldiers she tried to escape with one of them and was caught.
The Hero(es): Zach (a.k.a. 351) – he knew from the first time he saw Lillian that she was his Mate. He is an Alpha and the scientists have been giving him a drug cocktail that made him feral. He claimed Lillian as his mate during an experiment when they were both drugged.
The Story: The scientist begin using the mate bond to force 351 to do what they want. They begin testing how far he will go to ensure Lillian’s safety by torturing her.
This book wasn’t any longer than the first book in the series, but this one didn’t have quite as many sexy times and had more story. I liked the way the story went in this one. It told more of the time in captivity and what they went through each day.
The last book was told from Lillian’s POV, but this one was told primarily by Zach’s POV, with a few chapters in Lillians. So there were two narrators and both were good.
