In the town of Elveton, everyone knows the story of the beast in the woods, with scales darker than the night itself...
Lily never really cared much for those stories, writing them off as stories to scare children. As a farm girl scraping by, she lives a life of peace and quiet. However, women have started going missing in her village, and her friend is worried that Lily may be next. When an accident has her face-to-face with bandits, Lily finds protection with a monster of legend.
Silas is a terrifying beast, not to be trifled with. But underneath that scary exterior he's quite surprising. Together, they both uncover the truth of the missing girls, and about their feelings for each other.

Madeline Curtis, a runaway from small town in Washington, finds herself in the streets of Hollywood looking for a place to stay when she encounters a strange hooded man. In less than a second poor Madeline's entire life was flipped upside down and she is determined to find the monster that caused it all. ----------------------------- Maybe it was the way all of their hearts beat in synchronization or the bulging veins that popped out of their hands as they did their work. Somehow, some way, without the normal supervision and the taste of human blood I'd gotten just an hour ago, I broke my streak of leaving the humans to rest freely, and I killed them all. "Madeline." I announced to the crowd, at least they'd know the name to their killer when I pierced my teeth into their bodies, their bodies running cold due to the lack of blood. "Maddy?" A sadly familiar voice said from the front door. When I didn't respond he stepped closer and used his thumb to tilt my head back to look at him. I couldn't make out if it was disappointment or sadness when he looked at the remains of the human boy lying in front of me, no chance of life inside of him. "Oh, Madeline." he sighed. ----------------------------- !

She's My Luna (Alpha Taming)
Book 1 Alpha Taming She stopped, watching him with large scared eyes. Mika had no godly clue why her thighs tingled with excitement just from him being near him. He clouded her senses and made her want to run at the same time. She stepped back. He just grabbed her and pulled her into his chest, " You are mine. Don't try to escape again. " She struggled for a moment, but Jayce was far to strong. " I am not a submissive little child! Why do you think I would let you keep me here?" His growl was like thunder. " I will catch you every single time, bring you back here, and punish you in the best ways I can think of. I could tease you until you beg for release, but I will never give in. I could starve you. It wouldn't matter." She craned her neck up at him, damn he was tall, and glared, " You are an idiot. " He narrowed his eyes, and shoved her at the bed, " Should I punish you now Mika, my little runaway?" he growled in a tone that made her want him all the more. This idiot knew nothing about what a Luna was supposed to do did he? She wasn't running. The Asshole had brought her home, and never once showed her anything at all! He hadn't showed her the boundaries, he hadn't introduced her, he hadn't let her explain what Lunas are supposed to do. " Do it, and I will make you regret it with your life Jayce.
