Hey, guys, do you need more werewolf romance reads? I recently published one on Amazon kindle! [The Alpha King's Captive: A Paranormal Werewolf Romance]. It's a blend of passion, pulse-pounding action and harrowing twists].


I'll be releasing the first three chapters!

It sounded like an explosion.


A roar tears through the metal ward, quickly followed by wild, erratic bangings. The immortal shifter throwing himself against the enclosures repeatedly. If I only walked further in the direction of the sound, I'd see the gruesome smears of blood painting the impregnable glass.


But like always, I stifle down bile and turn away. Armed men rush past me, going to subdue the shifter, speakers blaring out commands.


"Hold him down!" one of the men orders.


"He's too strong! We need reinforcement."


I make my way down the linoleum floors, making sure to keep my gaze away from the transparent prisons. White LED light shines down, the air rife with the cloying scent of antiseptic, death, and decay. I clutch my logbook closer to me, my chest constricting with each breath I pull in.


Rounding into the clinic, I head toward Dr. Sarah's cubicle.


She looks up when I drop the book in front of her. "Here. All done," I say.


She grabs it immediately. Her eyes scan the report from behind her glasses. "Odd," she muses under her breath. "Experiment 107 doesn't seem to be reacting to the substance."


My chest tightens. I hate the way they refer to the shifters as experiments, like they're nothing more than their biological reactions. My thoughts halt once I realize the pronoun I'd used. They.


As the months progress, I realize I've started to see myself apart from them. Which is a dangerous thing, because I am a Hunter. Will be until I die. 


Anything to protect him.


"How is that possible?" I ask, bringing myself back to the present.


She looks up, surprised to realize I'm still in the office. "I have no idea. Either he's too strong or has developed a mutation from the previous shots that allows his system to be immune. Anyway, we move on to phase 2. Iridium."


My breaths cease and without thinking I blurt, "But that could kill him."


The office goes deathly quiet.


I had shown consideration for the enemy.


What the hell was that, Gwen? I fire internally.
