“You’re my lifemate, little warrior. My soulmate. My omega. I’ll have you locked on my knot in the end.”
-Lyc

 

Born in an underground lab and raised by evil scientists, Subject 66C has one purpose in life: accept her fellow test subjects’ pain and calm them for further experiments. She uses her power to protect those trapped in hell with her, but she holds no hope of freedom for herself.

Until she’s thrown in a cell with Lyc, a massive alien alpha with red and black scales and eerie reptilian eyes. As a Warrior Elite–a top secret Special Operations unit of super soldier aliens–and a seer, he’s devoted his life to protecting his teammates and their fated mates.

When a mission goes sideways and he’s captured by the enemy, he finds himself strapped to a torture chair and locked in a cell with the most gorgeous creature he’s ever seen. Unable to resist the call of the mate bond, he flies into a rampage and destroys the room only to discover a horrible truth.

She’s his omega lifemate, but her touch steals the rage he uses to maintain his sanity.

With the scientists set out to break them with increasingly crueler experiments, Lyc’s foresight into the future filling him with foreboding, and Subject 66C’s power evolving, will they succumb to the dangers and lose everything, or break free and find their happily ever after?

  1. Bridgett Goodin –

    PROTECTED AND PUNISHED is heartfelt installment to this series. Leading characters are so well done and well written. The story has great story building and heart stopping scenes. The lead female’s story is so compelling their story and struggles captivated me in throughout the entire story. I love a good Alpha series and V.T. Bond has hit a home run with this installment. Highly recommending reading this installment and please have tissue handy.

    The warning that the author has put on the book is real. This book is darker than any of the other books of hers that I have read. But it is so raw and emotional, that I could not put it down. That is not necessarily true. There were times I had to stop and breathe and think because the pain that VT writes about that Pixie/Subect 66C feels is so real you just have to absorb it before moving forward in the book. The anger that it created for the ISC is so real, how horrible, demented and cruel they are just knows no bounds. But Lyc, he is the perfect Warrior Elite to pull her from her drowning pain; to show her that she is more than just created to be used by the ISC. It takes a lot but Lyc & Pixie finally find the strength to see what they can be together.

  3. Emily Zisman –

    I have loved all the books in Bonds’ Warrior Elite series. But Protected and Punished ‘s plot felt very different from the other books in the series—in a good way—and I enjoyed it immensely! Bonds just delivers all the action and suspense, and sexy-times you want in a story. I especially loved how the heroine managed to protect Lyc throughout his captivity at the ISC facility. I believe he wouldn’t have made it without her. I also think this is one of the loveliest, most compelling first mating/bonding scenes the author has written. I felt all warm and gooey inside after reading it. And fired-up, too– LOL! 5 stars.

    I was provided a review copy of this book, and this is my voluntary, authentic opinion.
