Viper's Kiss

Chloe travels to a deadly, uncharted tropical island to find a rare botanical cure for her sister's sudden paralysis. Her expedition is quickly ambushed by heavily armed corporate mercenaries. Cornered at a cliff, Chloe is saved by Ethan, a brooding, intensely quiet local guide. But Ethan doesn't use guns. Driven by pure primal rage, he sheds his human form, spiraling into a colossal, venomous naga shifter. He breathes a blinding, paralyzing fog that incapacitates the mercenaries instantly. Hidden in his deep underground cavern, Ethan reveals the mercenaries work for the same pharmaceutical company that poisoned Chloe's sister, using her as a test subject. They plan to harvest Ethan’s blood next. Now, Chloe must trust her horrifying, scaled savior. Armed with lethal venom and deep jungle knowledge, the two wage a brutal guerrilla war against the corrupt soldiers to secure the antidote.
