Alphas aren't made to submit. Raised in a conservative clan, Asher Grant has done everything he could to be a good alpha. A good son. But denying his needs has made him weak, and he's lost touch with his bear. No longer able to shift, his clan rejects him instead of helping. Desperate, there's only one place Asher can turn. Trey Carver leads his pack with a firm but gentle hand. Under his guidance, his wolves have flourished. Asher knows he won't be welcome among the wolves, but Trey has something he needs. Asking for it isn't easy. Accepting it when it's offered is even harder. As Trey teaches Asher the beauty of dominance and submission, Asher begins to heal. Accepting his true self has a power all its own. When Trey makes the ultimate offer, Asher feels honor bound to deny it. Can a wolf convince a bear that they are meant to be?

Accepting Submission

For a moment, I thought about just turning around and walking away. But the fierceness in his expression kept my feet glued to the floor. That was until he made an impatient sound and the thought of pissing him off, or worse, disappointing him had me shuffling into the room. When I stopped on the spot he’d pointed to, Trey sat back and looked up at me with a critical eye.


“Nothing.” I sounded like a brat and I didn’t care.


He snorted out a mirthless sound. “That is clearly a lie. Try again.”


I shrugged. “I don’t see why it matters. I’m allowed to be in a bad mood if I want to be.”


Trey blew out a slow breath. “You are. But there is obviously something bothering you. I want to know what it is”


Quick as a flash, he grabbed me, pulled me down, and put me over his lap. I didn’t even have time to struggle before he delivered two hard smack right on my ass. I yelped and tried to get away, but he held me fast.
