Isn't she talented!

Adelaide did not expect to fall in love with Nolan and end up pregnant while he went away to join the military.

                                      ~*~

Nine-teen year old Adelaide Burke wanted a fun get away. She had no idea that spending the summer with her best friend Katrina Harlyn, would lead to falling in love with the cute italian boy next door. A month after Adelaide returns home, she finds that she is pregnant. 

Throughout most of his life Nolan Marcos has wanted to join the military. He knew what he wanted in life, but he didn't expect to meet the love of his life the summer before he was supposed to be shipped off to base for training.

Two years later Nolan returns from base to find his family is spending Christmas with Adelaide. When Nolan arrives he is met with a little girl with dimples and curly brown hair, that resembles Adelaide and Nolan. 

What will happen when Nolan meets his Unexpected Gift? 

                                    ~*~

"Mommy!" A little girl came running around the corner. "Mommy, I need to potty." She was adorable and pouting. She had blond hair that was up in pigtails, she looked to be about two years old. 

Adelaide shot me a side glance and knelt down to face the little girl. "Okay, baby. Let's hurry." She picked her up and quickly turned to me, biting her lip. "Come in, Nolan. We'll talk in a minute." Then she walked off with the little girl.

Nova disguise as a boy to enter the military school. If she is discovered as a girl, she will be kicked out. She is desperate to hide from trackers who have been following her for a dozen years. No one would think to look for her in an all-male military school. She hides among werewolves and is one of the very few nonshifters at the school. She catches the new instructor's curiosity, and her identity is threatened. He claims to be her mate, but she knows that her kind don't have a mate and desperately tries to avoid him. If he stumbles upon her true identity, she is screwed. "What are you doing?!" growls his highness, ripping the knife from my hands. It tingles as his fingers close around my wrist. Fresh blood flows from the wound, turning his hands red. Deep throaty sounds, rumbling in his chest. "You hurt yourself," he says softly, pain evident in his voice. I look up and frown. "It's just a small cut," I reply, annoyed. None of the other cadets get this kind of attention. Besides, we have to learn this to pass the exam. "Shhh, it's going to be okay," he says, pressing me close. My whole side explodes with sparks. It tickles me. "You have to stop hurt yourself. Why are you even here? How am I going to protect you here?" he asks angrily. "I don't need your protection!" I shout, pushing him away. I get an angry growl back. Quickly I grab another knife and throws it over my shoulder, hitting bulls' eye. He glares at me, and the room has gone completely silent. That's when I discover that I may have gone too far with the insanely possessive highness, even though I'm grateful for the extra lessons he gives me. Then suddenly everyone hurries out of the training area. Leaving me alone with the growling, red eyed alpha. *This book contains graphic depictions of violence, sexuality, strong language, and other mature themes.* English is not my first language.

"This baby is my perfect mistake." ********* Anabelle Marie Thompson is just your typical average teenager, except she studies hard and values books more than TV.

NOTICE: Before the Morning is currently undergoing revisions! A sensitivity reader (someone who goes through your manuscript and assesses representations in your work) identified a number of issues surrounding the Filipino representation in BTM. I'm rewriting with the goal of creating a more authentic and respectful story. I'm sorry for the pain I caused by failing to include accurate Filipino culture and in having written from Nora's point of view.

I ask while highly aware that he's backed me up against my car. "Hmm..." He trails off as his arms rest on either side of my body. He steps closer until our lips are just a breath away and my heart starts to race in anticipation. "Your gorgeous eyes that take my breath away...your sweet smile that can bring me to my knees...your touch that drives me crazy -" "Theo..." I shake my head as a fierce blush heats my cheeks. He leans in and pulls me against him by my waist. I release a shaky breath when the need to kiss him becomes overwhelming. "I could go on forever darlin." Unable to help myself I press my lips to his. He groans huskily before tangling his fingers in my hair. I hesitantly bite down on his bottom lip before soothing the sting. His reaction is instant as he hoists me up onto his waist. My back hits my car door as I wrap my legs around his waist. "Get some brother!"
