Seducing My Older Alpha Mate
Alice Brown is an outlier in the shifter palace. She is weak and cannot transform, and is the lowest maid in the palace: everyone can bully her, and every man wants her. As such, Alice upholds an innocent mask and a vicious and selfish heart. One that shows when the new palace warrior, Simon, calls her weak. Weak? She will prove him wrong. And she will start by learning showing him what she's truly capable of. ** "You will have to find the answer to that question yourself," he teased. "I can't tell you." "Is there a reward for answering correctly?" I boldly asked as I leaned back to look at his face. The longer I sat on his lap, the more confident I was getting. Goddess, help me. His eyes darkened and his words came out more like a growl. "Yes." Seducing My Older Alpha Mate is written by A.B. Elwin, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.Complete
