Saving Grace
Shifter Chronicles
by
Anita Cox
Already struggling with her royal
status, Lycan Princess Grace McGovern faces the challenge of accepting a mate.
The very sexy Roman LaRossa, is already infatuated with Grace. He’s also her
pack’s Beta. As Grace’s was raised in the human world, she is determined to
bring Lycan women’s rights up to speed, bringing them equality and protection
for the violence they face from the Scottsboro pack’s supernatural puppy mill.
Can Grace succeed in her goals or will the Scottsboro pack win by kidnapping
her and using her to breed her royal blood into their pack until there’s
nothing left of her?
Jagger Merrell, Alpha of the
Scottsboro pack, takes great pride in his need to bring an end to the Lycan
Clan and will do anything and everything he can to bring it and their too
independently minded Princess, Grace McGovern to her knees. Will he finally
rule the Kingdom of Lycan and tame this odd Alpha Princess once and for all?
Roman, the Belfast Pack’s Beta,
has always loved Grace but will his chauvinist and controlling ways cause her
to refuse him as her King?
Can Grace find love with Roman? Can Roman save her
from Jagger? Who will win this battle of wills to rule the Kingdom of the
Lycan?
Excerpt:
Roman spotted Grace pulling into the drive and walked to the back of
the house. He stood at the tree line gazing at the forest when he heard heavy
footprints—too heavy for a Lycan female—crunching toward him. He spun around to
see Grace, her jaw set, moving with such determination it made him brace
himself.
“Can I have five minutes of your time?” she asked, hands on her hips,
her tone filtering in on the spicy side. Something was bothering her.
He smiled in hopes of brightening her mood. “You can have ten.”
“Where can we talk? Privately?” Her brows pulled in and her head was
pointed slightly forward.
“Our princess
looks determined!”
Roman held in his laugh. “We
might be in trouble.”
“We might be
breeding.”
He tried not to roll his eyes. “Patio.” He led her over to the veranda
and took a seat next to her on the bench. “What can I do for you?”
“Oh you can do a lot for me. First, we’re about to have a very frank
discussion. I realize it’s not a very Lycan thing to do, but we’re going to put
all of our cards on the table. Right here. Right now.” She crossed her arms
over her chest.
Roman tried hard not to look at how her arms squeezed her boobs
together. “Um…okay?” He was Beta. Why was he taking orders from her?
“So you want to be mated to me?” Her eyes narrowed at him as her
soprano voice sank into an accusing tone.
His heart thundered in his chest. “What? I’m sorry.” He shook his head.
He couldn’t have heard her right. “What?” She couldn’t possibly believe he had
planned out her future without her consent. His lips curved down at the very
thought.
“You heard me. You have plans or hopes to be mated to me?” She leaned
in and squinted her eyes. The pressure in his chest increased, and his stomach
burned in unison. Her look was so stern, so accusatory. How could he make her
understand?
“Well,” he started. How do I answer her?
His wolf made a sound that somewhat resembled a laugh. “Start with
the truth.”
“Roman?”
He pulled his shoulders
back, sitting a little straighter. He had to make her understand, but he didn’t
want to make his position seem worse than it apparently had. He wanted her, he
wanted all of her, but he wasn’t going to force it on her. “Yes.” One word
answer. That can’t get me into trouble. Can it?
