Chance

They took her! Before Alpha wolf shifter, War Vox could explore his odd infatuation with Nora, before he could even consider the implications of his inexplicable draw to the she-wolf who'd been dumped in his territory, she's ripped away from him. Calling out War is a huge mistake, but taking something from War's wolf is tantamount to suicide. Nora isn't War's to claim, hell, she's not even a member of his pack, but she is his responsibility and War takes his responsibilities very seriously. War. Wants. Her. Back! Whether Nora wants him or not, War has decided the Imperial pack's Alpha will pay the price for touching what War and his wolf have decided is theirs. Battle is coming, and it's coming fast and hard!***Heart hammering, War debated alerting his men. It looked like Nora was about to spring her trap, and eyes darting up to the guards, War wondered if they were keeping a good enough eye out. Is Castamere out there? Is that what she's waiting for? Jealousy ripped through him, but War forced himself to remain hidden. If Nora was going to betray him, he wanted to see it with his own eyes.She was eyeing the burn can that was still smoking from the day's chores. When she kicked it over, War felt his heart plummet. This was it! Nora was making her move. Ready to sound the alarm for his men to prepare for battle, the howl died in War's throat as he watched Nora slink into the shadows and shimmy along the wall before she tore out of the compound. On the wall, one of his guards let off a call. Stepping out of the shadows, War watched as his men pour out of the keep, their evening meal forgotten as they split up to tackle the fire and to chase Nora.Chase Nora. His men were chasing Nora, and that didn't sit right with War's wolf.Rolling his head on his shoulders, he took two steps, and then his animal exploded from him. As he barreled toward the gate, the other wolves sensed his dominance and cleared a path.Through their pack ties, Tallius pressed, "War?"His command was simple. "Hold the line!"He didn't want any more of his men leaving the Fortress. It could be a setup. Nora could be trying to get free before Castamere and his Imperials attacked, and if that was the case, War didn't want his men caught outside the Fortress walls. The fortified towers and curtain wall were their vantage points, and abandoning them to get caught out in the open was foolish, but War had to know.His wolf was easily twice the size of any other shifters, which meant his gait at a dead run ate up the ground at an incomparable rate. In a short burst, he left most of his pack behind, and that's the way he wanted it. He was Alpha, and he should be the point of the spear.Ears pricked, senses honed in, War zeroed in on his surroundings as he ran. Following Nora felt like muscle memory. Expecting an attack, anticipating a trap, War was confused when none came. The closer they got to the pack perimeter, the less sense everything made. Castamere wouldn't attack so far out. The trees thinned in just a few short miles, and then there'd be no cover at all. No one would instigate a battle out there. No one! Unless . . . unless there was no battle. What if Nora wasn't laying a trap? What if she was just trying to escape?Tossing his head back, War loosed a howl and instantly heard the forest fall silent behind him. He'd told Tallius to keep his wolves at the Fortress, but Tallius and his closest enforcers wouldn't let their Alpha charge out of the protection of the walls without them. So War had to stay the enforcers behind him. There was no battle to be found. There was no enemy out in his forest. There was just Nora trying to make a break for it. She was trying to escape him, and there was no way in hell War was letting that happen--and not because he'd made a promise to Reign. No, War wasn't letting Nora go because she bore his mark, and until it disappeared, she didn't.

Spoils of War

Bellis StCroix, Skin Walker Assassin, only comes out of the shadows when he's called to duty. The reason? Because he is a shadow himself.

Gray Kincaid, one of the most dangerous wolf-shifters in the world, is finally home. After years spent in the wilds of British Columbia with his four brothers, Gray is looking forward to reclaiming his life as a human. But during his absence, someone has been dipping their hands into his wealth. No, not dipping. Someone's been outright stealing from him, Gray Kincaid! The sheer audacity has him on a hunt that leads to a small female who, not surprisingly, works for his company. Regardless of how innocent she looks, or claims to be, Gray will have his money back, or he'll keep the woman in return. Finally, taking a long-awaited vacation, Sien McMichaels is terrified when she's abducted by the driver sent to take her to the airport. After a failed escape attempt, she's dragged to a massive manor and kept in a dungeon, a prisoner of the driver who claims to be Gray Kincaid. The Gray Kincaid of Kincaid Enterprises, the owner of the company where she works. He's got the wrong woman though because Sien is a simple girl with a simple life. She wouldn't dream of taking anything that isn't hers and doesn't understand when all the signs of theft point to her. She's determined to prove her innocence to her infuriating captor even though Gray is equally committed to punishing her for crimes she didn't commit. *This is book 7 in the Territory series; however, each book focuses on a different couple and can be read as a standalone. ***"Sorry to bother you, Ma'am." The driver's gruff voice intruded on Sien's thoughts. "But you wouldn't happen to have a cell phone I could borrow? I need to call my employer regarding my next pick-up, and I seem to have left my phone at the office. I wouldn't ask, but it's imperative that we're en route, and I don't have time to make a stop just to call." "Oh! Sure." Sien rummaged around in her purse until she found her little black phone. Sliding across the slick, black leather seat until she was close enough to hand the driver her phone, Sien held it up near his shoulder. "Here ya go."With a clipped, "Thank you," he took the phone."Not a problem." She slid back to her original position to give the driver a little privacy. It wasn't far enough because the driver erected the tinted privacy glass that separated him from his passenger."O-kay," she whispered, slightly insulted. Trying to ignore the rude driver, she watched the beautiful scenery out her window. A hardcore type 'A' personality, Sien mentally sorted through her suitcase to ensure she hadn't forgotten anything. It was a good distraction that she knew would help pass the time more quickly. Toothbrush, hairbrush, hairspray, shampoo, conditioner. Her cataloging was cut short when she saw the off-ramp to the Dulles International Airport go whizzing past. Head whipping around to look behind them, she frowned at the fading off-ramp. "Um, excuse me, driver? I think you missed our turn." When the driver didn't respond, Sien slid back around to the privacy glass and gently knocked, "Sir! We missed our turn." Her temper began to flare when the driver continued to ignore her. Knocking harder on the glass, Sien raised her voice, "I'm sorry to interrupt your call, but we've missed our turn. I'm going to Dulles airport!"When there was still no response, she shouted, "Hello! Can you hear me?" She waited several heartbeats for a response. When none was forthcoming, her anger turned into panic as she checked her watch. She'd scheduled everything perfectly so that she'd get to the airport with just enough time to board. Tanner was going to meet her there, and they'd depart directly. Frustrated, Sien began pounding on the glass with her palm, "Excuse me! Driver! You missed the turn, and I'm going to be late for my flight!" She knew he had to hear her pounding, but when he still didn't respond, her worry at being late turned into something else.

Devour

Maia Major is a woman on a mission. When her neighbors at Cougar Canyon Ranch need help, Maia is determined to do what she can. It doesn't matter to her that the Concolor Apex, Carter, has a notorious hatred of humans. It doesn't matter to Maia that she's the only human in the Major Bear Clan. She also doesn't care about the bitter rivalry brewing between her brother, the Alpha of the Major Bear Clan, and Carter, the Apex of the Concolor Pride. Maia's only concern is healing Carter's sick animals.Carter is at a loss. Frustration and helplessness mount when the local town veterinarian is unable to help Carter's ailing team of prized sled dogs. So when Maia Major, sister to his enemy, and skilled veterinarian, shows up on Carter's property, he's forced to play nice. He doesn't like humans, and judging by her scent, Maia is one hundred percent human. Still, she's educated and willing to lend a hand. He'll be polite if he can, he'll be gracious if he must, and he'll tolerate Maia's presence even if it kills him.

Determined to accept her help and then be rid of her, he steels himself against Maia's inadvertent charm. Bonds form, ties are cemented, and when Ramsey Major comes calling his sister home, Carter will have to decide if he still hates humans enough to let Maia go. ***A voice shot through the cavernous barn like a shotgun blast. "Who in the hell are you?" Maia jumped and spun to find an angry behemoth stalking toward her. Heart tripping, she instinctively backed up a few steps. She knew better than that. Ramsey had drilled it into her head a thousand times not to run from a predator, and what did she do the first time she encountered one? Christ!Halting her retreat, she squared her shoulders and lifted her chin. "I'm Maia."The man didn't stop advancing, so she tagged on quickly, "Maia Major."Her admission didn't deter the man who only stopped when his chest was three inches from her face. Head craned far back to stare up at him, she added, "Ramsey Major is my brother.""Lie!" the guy boomed.God, he was big. Big like Ramsey but different. Bear shifters were massive, hulking men with bulky muscle, but this guy was leaner. Where Ramsey and the bears at The Den looked like they'd end a fight with one brutal punch, this guy looked like he could go all night. His shoulders weren't as broad as a bear shifter's, but they still looked powerful where they pressed up against his button-up shirt. The top few buttons were undone revealing a thickly muscled neck. Short blond hair was mostly hidden under a ball cap that sat just above speared brows and blazing sky-blue eyes. His square jaw was dusted with a few days' worth of stubble, while his full lips were pressed into a grim line.Fear was thrashing around inside Maia like a captured raven."Who. Are. You? And what are you doing on my property?"Blinking up at him, Maia tried again, cursing the stammer in her voice as she explained, "I-I'm Maia Major. Ramsey Major's sister. I'm here to help with . . ."She didn't get to finish because the guy grabbed her arms and pulled her hard into his body as he lowered his head to sneer, "Lie! You smell nothing like Major, and you're a human!"He called her a human like it was the most disgusting thing on the face of the earth. It had Maia fearing she'd made a terrible mistake.
