Publisher Description
Though Octavia is enthralled by Prince Markus of Delti the moment she sets eyes on him, she is shocked when the huge, handsome warrior takes her captive and informs her that she is his fated mate, bound irrevocably to him for the rest of their lives.
Markus quickly makes it clear that he will demand obedience and submission from his mate, and when the beautiful, headstrong Zatari priestess questions his honor he does not hesitate to bare her bottom and spank her hard and thoroughly.
The humiliating punishment leaves Octavia furious yet helplessly aroused, and though it fills her with shame, she soon finds herself begging for her mate to master her body completely. When Markus claims her at last, his skilled, dominant lovemaking satisfies her more deeply than she would have thought possible, but will she forsake her own people and stay by his side forever?
Publisher’s Note: Claiming His Mate is the first book of the Mates of Zatari series. It includes spankings and sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

Claiming His Mate
Claire Conrad - Claiming His Mate (Mates of Zatari Book 1)
Claiming His Mate is the first book in the Mates of Zatari series by Claire Conrad. It introduced us to a new sci-fi world centered on the planet Zatari. The planet is inhabited by two main civilizations.
There is an Amazonian type of civilization where women rule and men are used mainly for breeding. They have many breeding rituals where the participants are given a certain elixir made from a flower grown on the planet. One of the effects of this is to increase lust to demanding levels.
Octavia is royalty and a high priestess of Zatari. Finding herself extraordinarily drawn to one of the males at the latest breeding ceremony she makes up her mind to free the male. Strangely enough she can hear in her mind the prisoner communicating with her imploring her to free him. The strong psychic link to this man convinces her to free him, going against her people and role as a priestess basically endangering and alienating herself as well.
Prince Markus of Delhi had been taking prisoner by the Zatari when he was caught searching for his sister who has been abducted. When he finds himself mentally connected and his body physically craving a Zatari Princess he convinces her thru their mental bond to help him escape. Markus realizes Octavia is his fated mate and flips roles by kidnapping her.
Both civilizations have been at war for a thousand years. At this point the Prince is tired of all the fighting and death and seeks a better solution.
Octavia realizes she will be exiled from her people but can't deny the bond she has with Prince Markus especially the strong sexual attraction she can not ignore .
Prince Markus is a very dominant alpha male who introduces Octavia to his sexual world. Despite her denials Octavia is finds submitting to Marcus and is turned on by his demands.
This is an intriguing new world with many possibilities to explore, the first book only the beginning. There are more characters whose stories need to be told, Marcus and Octavia must find his sister Selena, and more to revealed about the planet and its people.
A great page turning sci-fi read which is very sexually charged (there is some spanking ) , some suspense, lots of excitement and interest watching the relationship between the Hero/Heroine develop and grow. Am looking forward to reading more books in this new series.
