Free The Tiger's Mail Order Mate (Paranormal Shifter Romance) by Jade White Page A

perverted him even.” She explained.
    “How so?” he asked.
    “Well, you know how when you’re stressed, your testosterone goes up? Well, he turned violent towards me. Sexually violent. He tried to rape me many times, but failed. I requested a transfer to another splicer but I was denied.”
    “Did you kill him?” Russell asked softly.
    “No. Vladimir Putin put him down.” She replied. “He was in the woods in Siberia on a training exercise. He was in his animal form, a bear. Putin was out there on one of his many hunting trips at the same time. They felt it was safe because both Yuri and I were out there along with other KGB agents. Well Yuri turned on Putin. It was calculated too. He went off into the woods, turned into a bear and when he saw Putin, he charged.” Sonja swallowed hard. “He forgot that Putin was a precise shot. One shotgun slug to the head was all it took and Yuri was no more. He didn’t even change back to human when he died.”
    “How do they know it was him, and not just some wild bear?” Russell asked.
    “DNA testing and the implant. Both confirmed the bear was Yuri.” She replied sadly.
    Russell gave her a squeeze to comfort her. “So they moved you back to espionage.”
    “Yes, and that’s when this whole mess started.” She sighed. “Anyway, why didn’t you have a handler?” she asked.
    “They couldn’t find one for me.” He said. “Not a female one anyway, and I had no desire to bond with a male, the closest person was Colonel Bankes.” He said with a sigh. “That’s why I went in search of one on my own I guess, even though I didn’t realize it at the time.”
    “You really thought you could get away with finding a handler on a dating site?” she asked with a smile. “Like your bosses would have to vet her and everything. Most women would run at the thought.”
    “Yeah that’s why I was hoping to keep it a secret, but it wouldn’t work. Not with this.” He said pointing to his implant. “I guess I’m lucky I found you, then.” He said.
    “Yes. You would have gone insane and needed to be put down if you didn’t.” Sonja explained.
    “Really?” Russell was surprised.
    “They didn’t tell you because they didn’t want you to know how desperate it was. When a Splicer doesn’t find someone to bond with by the time they reach thirty, their animal DNA starts to corrupt their brain, overwriting key parts of their humanity.”
    “How do you know this?” Russell asked.
    “Russia has been creating Splicers for much longer than the USA. We began to share the technology around twenty five years ago with you. But in World War 2, some of Mengele’s s scientists came to us, instead of you. That’s where we got the theory and basic data.”
    Russell nodded. “And they plan on using the women of the Ukraine to breed an army of us, right?”
    “Yes.” Sonja replied grimly. “That’s part of the data that’s on here. The US and Russia are going to be cooperating in this to build an army of splicer soldiers. They won’t be viewed as human so they will be sent out to fight the battles that regular infantries are sent to do now. The entire Middle East will fall and the oil will be ripe for the taking. China will retaliate with a tactical nuclear strike. All the communiqué’s are here on this chip. If the Ukraine falls, World War 3 will begin. We need to get this to a UN ambassador.”
    Russell sighed. “Well, first we need to get out of Hawaii and to a neutral nation with no extradition treaty. I have no idea where this cruise ship will go, maybe South America, maybe to French Polynesia. We’ll just do what we can to maintain our cover.”
    “Exactly.” Sonja snuggled into Russell’s arms and yawned. “I’m exhausted though. I think I’ll take a nap, you can keep watch.” She said as she closed her eyes.
    A few hours later, a knock was heard at the door. Russell started up and Sonja’s eyes flew open.
    Over the loud speaker, an announcement in a
