Anthology Title: Alpha’s Claim:
Manlove Edition
Strength. Power. Domination.
The shifters in our
Alpha's Claim: Manlove Edition anthology have one thing in common—they won't
take “no” for an answer. Whether they lead packs of their own, or whether they
walk a solitary path, these alphas won't let anyone stop them from claiming
their men.
Lose yourself in these ten
sinfully delicious love stories. After all, who could deny an Alpha’s claim?
WAKING UP WOLF BLURB:
When
a radioactive leak in the local water source turns the inhabitants of Adam
Baker’s small town into shape shifting wolves, he manages to hold and survive
alone--alone except for the wolves he hears in the distance. When he doesn’t
immediately undergo “the change” into a wolf himself, he begins to believe he’s
immune. After his dreams begin to include another wolf, he finds himself drawn to
the howls outside his window and the pack’s alpha Grady Conway.
WAKING UP WOLF
EXCERPT:
Adam watched him carefully. “You
don’t even know me. Why would you invite me back with your family, your pack?”
Grady looked down. “What if I
told you we needed you? That I needed you?”
Adam stared at him like he’d gone crazy.
“Me? Why would you need
me?”
“A true alpha needs a mate.”
Grady raised his head, meeting Adam’s eyes, and for a moment he couldn’t look
away.
“And you think I’m your
mate?”
“I don’t think. I know.
You’re my mate, always have been.”
Adam backed away, and he felt himself shake and pain shoot through
his body as he fell to his knees. Naked and sprawled in the dirt he stared up
at Grady, who closed his eyes and shifted, leaving himself bare as well.
Adam swallowed hard as he stared up at Grady in shock. This close he
could see every single inch of the tanned and toned body of the man who
commanded a pack. Muscled and imposing, he stared down at Adam, his blue eyed
gaze heated.
Without another word, Grady took a step closer, sliding his hand
over the top of Adam’s head possessively. He slowly wrapped his hand around
Adam’s long dark dreads and pulled his head back, exposing his neck. Adam’s
eyes slammed shut as he waited for Grady to change and wolf teeth to tear out
his throat. Instead, when Grady’s human teeth sank into his shoulder he
shuddered and cried out.
Pleasure/pain surged through Adam’s body as he jerked awake, his
cock throbbing as he felt hot cum stripe his belly. His legs shook as he panted
for breath, his bed sheets and body soaked with sweat.
His dreams had never been that vivid before, and when he shifted his
body his muscles screamed in protest and he flopped back with a moan.
When he yanked back the blankets he stared.
His feet were dirty, caked in mud along with his hands. On his neck,
he could feel Grady’s teeth marks.
He’d been marked by the alpha.
