He had taken his title by force, as tradition dictated. Power and authority of the Alphas and shifters who had challenged him and lost radiated off of his tall, bulky frame. He was dangerous and he was everything an Alpha of a Mountain pack should be. Yet he had no mate or family to call his own. But a mate who could not stand the bitterly cold winters or the brutality of the pack would not produce strength. It would only bring weakness. Weakness is not allowed in the Mountain packs. ~ If the pain stops, it means you are dead. Lace Owens is underestimated at every turn.

A power and an authority that would bring many men to their knees if they sensed it, hangs off of her like an oppressively dark cloud but she hides it carefully. Unwilling to let anyone see just how powerful she has become. Her skin is marked with a painful past and she has turned a thing of cruelty into a thing of beauty with her blade.

Xer'Tal the Bloodthirsty had spent years as a warrior and now works as personal guard. With a world at war, his skills are in high demand however being an orc meant he was jaded to the world. People treated him poorly, gave him no trust, and he didn't trust a single person, even those who paid him.So he wasn't expecting someone like Tansy Wilde. Tansy Wilde was sent out from her family's lumberyard to head to the Kelpfar mountains to negotiate with the kobolds for a trade agreement when a bandit waylaid her plans. She escaped and fled to the nearest town where she asked after someone she could hire to protect her and she was sent straight to Xer'tal. Tansy knew orcs, she saw them occasionally at the lumberyard but there was something about this orc that has her breath catching in her chest. She paid him coin and asked him if he could escort her to Kelpfar and then back to her family's lumberyard. The coin was more than good so he agreed.The two start off but the stoic and cynical Xer'tal has no clue what to do with the bubbly and sweet Tansy as they make their way into the wilds. He finds the lines between job and employer he has always held firm waver under the sunshine of one singular, talkative woman as, for the first time in a long time, he is treated like a person that matters and not just as an orc. And Tansy finds her heart opening up more and more as the orc lets her truly be herself for the first time in years.Worlds and cultures collide as these two grow closer and only time will tell if love will bloom as they traverse the wilds between them.…

Twisted Dark, Book IV~~~Red had left the Covens for a reason. She hadn't liked the rules and instead of being banished like BamBam had, she had taken the simpler route of simply leaving. It wasn't that she didn't love her family, she did, her twin Tiannia especially, but for someone who so enjoyed causing chaos, living on the edge of the Territories was so much more to her liking. At least in her bar, no one ever told her what to do. However that all starts to change with a fateful visit from her mother asking her to do a simple task and she find herself embroiled in more chaos than she would like while she had to end a feud that had been born within the blood of her family. Something she wants nothing to do with but several lives life hang in the balance while a werewolf threatens her own. With a choice being made to ensure her own survival, twisting her sister's own instincts against her, Red has a rather unforgettable fling with the werewolf who threatened to kill her, that leaves her craving more. As the werewolf states that she will be her breeder, Red leaves the werewolf territory to head back to her bar, cursing her own foolish actions in letting the domineering werewolf take control of her chaos. Escaping back to her bar where she can control the chaos of her life, the werewolf follows her home and starts to insert himself into her life. Red hates people interfering with her life more than anything else and the two clash tempers as the fire that had been ignited between them burns hotter and hotter. But when the werewolf starts to fall ill the longer he stays, Red knows she has to make a decision. Fall into fires that threaten to burn them both or that will weld them together so tightly there will be nothing able to tear them apart or let him die.Bang bangLet chaos reign…

BamBam was a rather poor witch. That was why she ended up banished. Too many broken rules had her banished to the outer edges of the Territory. She was stuck just on the edge between her world and that of the Werewolves. Not that she cared much, she was still bitter about the banishment to care much about anything. That all changed when she nearly crashed her old truck due to one large, hulking werewolf with a child clutching onto his pant legs. BamBam had been hesitant at first, untrusting of the werewolf named Ren but one look at the sodden child and she melted. She brought them home, cleaned them up and soon learned that her life was now at the center of a dark magick spell and a curse six hundred years in the making. Because Ren had taken a child prophesied to be the end of the curse attacking both the Territory and the Werewolves, BamBam was now stuck on the edge of a choice. Give the child back and return her status as a formidable witch and let them end the curse without a glance backwards. Or keep the child and Ren safe and away from those seeking them both and let the two species figure out their own demise. A hard choice for one creature to make but BamBam knows there is only one choice that will finally give her what she had craved for, for so long. Something or somewhere she doesn't feel out of place and alone. It is a choice that will change the course of the future. What or who will BamBam choose? Tick tock Can't stop the clock…
