On the farm, a dog named Pucks grapples with the philosophy and reality of being a guard dog as he must discharge the distrust among his protections, keep an oath to his master, and stop himself from giving in to the sorrow of sending wolves to starve. Will Pucks succumb to the trauma and watch as all of the sheep he begs to protect perish? Will his owner succumb to age? And will the sheep turn on Pucks? Well, to figure any of that out, you're going to have to read this-and trust me, it might be short, but it's definitely a tragedy.

A steamy holiday short. A reclusive shifter's Christmas takes a surprising turn when his life-mate shows up unconscious on his doorstep. Finn just want to be alone; Hannah just wants to find somewhere to belong. When his secret is revealed, Hannah is willing to do anything to be claimed. *** Just when Hannah thinks this Christmas can't get any worse, a wrong turn leaves her stranded without fuel or phone signal in the midst of a surprise snow storm. Lost in the blustery snow-scape, she nearly freezes to death but is rescued by man straight from her fantasies. She is drawn to him immediately, and when the opportunity arises to become his life-mate, she is unintimidated by his warning that he'll never be able to let her go. Finn came to the middle of nowhere to be alone. His plans to spend the holidays in complete isolation are interrupted by an unconscious woman on his doorstep, and worst yet, this woman happens to be his beast-half's chosen mate. She is more than willing to be claimed by him, but he has far darker secrets than he is willing to admit, and even if he wants her, giving in to the urge might just condemn them both. Hannah is not willing to give up her happily ever after so easily, though. She won't let her shifter mate go until she shows him exactly what he'll be missing. Warning: Sexual ContentComplete

*Short Story* It is difficult to stay with the people who look down at you like you are some kind of disease. It hurts when they don't want to acknowledge you for the good things you have done. It hurts when your family rejects you only because you are quiet and weak saying you are good for nothing. Annie Ryan was nothing but a quiet, innocent teenager waiting for her mate to save her from the dark hell she was living in.

But little did she know that she was just another unfortunate soul whose mate had different plans. Caden was an young alpha. He had everything but where everyone was eager to meet their mate, he wasn't. He had already given his position of alpha female to his girlfriend. But after she left him, he turned cold and ruthless.
