Rose Angles was minding her business in the secret shifter town, Mayes Grove. Her father, Russell Angles, the town’s Peacekeeper, and the feared Alpha of the Hollow Wood Pack, lives by his reputation and his daughter was an enormous embarrassment to him. If he could he’d never had her. Rose plans to leave are going just fine, until rumours of a rogue pack coming to town and they were causing quite a stir with their plans to settle there. When she met their alpha, a wolf she suddenly wants to climb like a tree. He’s the one, and all her plans go out the window. Rose’s instincts are in overdrive as her father goes to war with her fated mate. Tyler Randell, Alpha of the Shadow Pack, just delisted from the military along with his pack. He’s back in the town where he was driven from as a pup. Where he watched his parents murdered for control of his pack. The Hollow Wood Pack is rightfully his and he’s returned to reclaim it. Ty’s got plans to steal the pack from Russell Angles with little to no bloodshed. Mayes Grove is in for a shake up, and Rose Angles is the linchpin. Can Rose find a better life? Will there be war between the Hollow Wood and Shadow Packs? Can the troubled town of Mayes Grove survive the violence? What are Ty’s plans for the enticing Rose? Welcome to Mayes Grove, hunker down and mind your manners at all times. The fur’s flying and claws are slashing. And that’s just in the bedroom.
View MoreBen had people all over the place in groups. This territory was not safe that he was certain of, and Tyler was walking right into it. The drone found a group of people encamped at the far end of the territory. It wasn’t an easy place to get to, which made it a safe place to hide. Someone set up shop there, and they took out the drone with a gun so he would put his money on the human hunters rather than Jack. Jack and his band of bungling aging fools were nowhere to be found currently. They’d fled, leaving their entire pack to sink or swim. Once they found them, it would be a slam dunk for Tyler to gain control of the pack. No alpha challenges or foolishness like that. He knew if Jack challenged Tyler, he’d have to cheat, because Tyler was a nice guy, until he wasn’t. Then he was a monster that tore through people to get what he wanted. It all came down to how much he wanted that something and how angry the people in the way made him. Tyler approached in a vehi
“It’s confirmed, Jack was not among the dead. Russell’s been found, and he’s been dead awhile. I won’t tell you where he was found or how. I don’t want you having nightmares. He hadn’t been burned or buried.” Ty and Rose were in the office of the Shadow Pack sorting out the information coming in finally from many sources. “That bad? He was my father either way. We should bury him, just to keep him from harming anyone as he… Uh… returns to the earth.” Old legends told of dead werewolves or wolf shifters dying and returning as a monstrous version of a vampire. It wasn’t true, but traditionally to prevent this, they cremated their dead or buried them deep in the ground. It was considered an honour to be cremated because there was nothing left to link the soul to, and they could continue their life’s journey. Burying the dead was punishment or torture. Because they believed it, the soul could linger here, attached to their body. “You’re comfortable with that option?” T
Heather was working with her father, which wasn’t a pleasant task. She’d made it clear to him she was happy, and she wouldn’t talk to him about her life or life choices. She was here to help assist him in identifying the bodies only. That didn’t make for an easy work environment. He’d found a woman to man his office once she was gone. He wouldn’t stop muttering about how much trouble she gave him because he had to search for her. She’d forced him to close his practice for several days while they searched for her selfish person. One thing he never mentioned was him being afraid she was injured or dead. “Father, stop talking. I’m not interested in how you were inconvenienced or how much difficulty you endured looking for me. Your own words tell me far more about you that my actions being wrong. In fact, your words tell me I made the correct decision not to return. You can stuff your hurt feelings in the trash. Because only you care about them.” “You emailed
Ty got word from Ben they’d found something on an old phone in the rubble that was the office of the Hollow Wood Packhouse. “I’m sending you a copy of a recording from this phone, Ty. I think we can be sure that the hunters didn’t kill Russell, but they may have done something to Jack. It’s sick. I think it’s Russell’s old phone and Jack must have kept it. Someone put a recording app on it and that’s what I’m sending you. I suspect they took Jack alive as payment for Russell’s debts.” Ben’s voice said over the phone to Ty. He accepted the email with a file of phone conversations. There weren’t many. A call from Jack and Russell where Jack was trying to make Russell see the reason about going into Ty’s territory. Another one was from an unknown number, of threats galore laced into the conversation. Something was off about the voice. Like it was a recording that Jack was responding to, and he didn’t know it. “Ben, bring the phone back with you. Get Mikey to l
A wolf sauntered into the changing pavilion, stopped, looked between Heath and Amber, gave a beleaguered grumble before they shifted into Rose. Which got had Heath moaning in embarrassed despair and Amber to smile while waving at her friend. “Amber, please tell me you’re not using the enforcers here like living sex toys.” “I couldn’t resist. He was just there.” “It was funny the first time you did it with your father’s enforcers, but I don’t know how Tyler will take it.” “Does it matter that I want to keep this one? He’s so good.” She tried to slip off him. Heath couldn’t believe that she didn’t realize he’d knotted inside her. They both gasped at the pain when their joining didn’t separate. “Stay where you are, woman. Gods, patience is a virtue in this matter.” “Oh gods. You two aren’t.” “Yeah, we are, and this is very embarrassing.” “Why did you pick here, of all places?” Rose grabbed a sweatshirt. “At le
Heath couldn’t believe Amber was at the gates asking to see him and her friends. The woman almost climbed him like he was a tree on a hot summer day, and she wanted to lounge in his shady branches. That was humiliating, and he was sure that those old women getting their hair and nails done. Why a female wolf shifter needed her nails done confused him to no end. He thought shifting would be difficult or the paint would come right off.There she was. His mind went straight to what she smelt like. Even over all those chemicals in the salon. Standing beside her car, perfectly put together. The light reflecting off her hair, she instantly saw him, then smiled and happily waved to him.His reaction to her hit him securely below the belt. Like all his blood rushed from his brain straight to his crotch. Heath had to resist the urge to adjust himself. Gods, he hoped none of the guys spotted it. He’d never hear the end of how Amber could lead him around by his cock like he was on a leash.As he
“What do you mean there’s nothing left? What did they do? How can you be so calm? What are you doing about this, Tyler? This is insane. What is there, someone working inside the council with these humans?” It appalled Rose when Ty informed her of what happened.Her reaction didn’t surprise him, but her words did. Someone inside the council working against them. Where did that idea come from and why would they? The council comprised supernatural creatures. It was their job to stop things like this or prevent them all together. Along with many other things to maintain the secrecy of the supernatural existence. Something like that would defeat their mandate.“Rose, I get this is a shock to you. No one expected this to happen. I highly doubt anyone involved with the council has anything to do with this extreme hunting business. No, they went after them for some reason. It had to do with your father. I can’t see being any other way. Rose, your father, was the dangerous man. A terribl
Ty prowled the border of the town with his pack’s hunting party spread out around them. Making slow progress on to wood edges of town. They barely made a noise as progressed. They fanned these hunters out, making it easy to pick them off but difficult to find each one. What these fools didn’t get was that Ty and his pack fought differently. Many older shifters would claim they were they were dishonourable for learning tricks to fighting in human and wolf forms that included weapons or extensions to their bodies. Ty currently had a set of metal claws held in his very human hands. This way, if questions arose with human authorities, they could explain the claw attacks at least. Currently, there were no dead yet. Only a few injured who decided they’d shot rather than ask questions. The fools actually shot each other. Ty’s man was sitting comfortably in a tree, relaying what he saw so others could step in and pick them up. What Ty didn’t like was these
