My free hand swept around her and pressed her lower back, so we crushed together. The hand that was in her hair dug in and cupped the back of her head. Tingles spread from every point of contact until my body was on fire. I burned for her. 

I harden against her.

Tallia gasped, but didn't pull away. She stared up at me in awe with her pupils blown wide. The scent of our arousal mixed and swelled around us. 

Her hands came up to my chest and her fingers dug in, like she'd claw me if I even tried to pull away. 

"I'm done running, my mate," I said in a low growl.

When a seer informs Alpha King Bryant where to find his mate, he hits the ground running. He never could have predicted he'd find a human that confuses both him and his wolf. When Tallia is bitten by a shifter and changes into a wolf herself, all bets are off.

Queen of the Shifters

I pulled out Tallia’s chair for her before taking my own at our table. 


One by one, the other council members entered the room. Each of them eyed my mate before taking their own seat. Cohen, the Vampire King, even made it a point to narrow his eyes at her before he sat in his designated spot. 


“Let us begin,” Anthea, the Seer, said with a slight warble. 


I pushed back my chair and stood. “I’d like to start by introducing my mate, Tallia James.” I waved toward her, then sat back in my seat. 


“Welcome, Tallia,” Amelia, the Human President, said with a nod. Her wife, Emily, gave my mate a warm smile.


Cohen let out a huff and crossed his arms over his chest, but said nothing more. 


The Magus gave her a charming grin that made me have to restrain a jealous growl. 


The Fae King eyed Tallia with a wicked spark in his eyes and a smirk on his lips. I didn’t really want Tallia around him, either.
