“I first met Gravestone when he saved my father from drowning. And that is when the troubles began.”
Belasarius, the princess of the kingdom of Wat, learns one night that her father nearly drowned in the river. His savior, a mysterious mercenary named Gravestone, asks only for work as payment. To Belasarius’ annoyance, the gruff, ill-mannered merc is hired as her personal bodyguard. For all their headbutting, though, the two will come to rely upon each other when Belasarius becomes the target of a violent cult that seeks her blood. 
Fortunately, the lazy and neurotic princess is equipped with a genius mind, and her gruff but lovable bodyguard is equipped with the power to shift into an eight-foot tall furry killing machine. Political intrigue, budding romance, and a metric a*s ton of swearing await. Come meet the Princess and her Alpha, Gravestone. You just might be glad you did.
The Princess’ Alpha, Gravestone is created by J. D. Tibbetts, an eGlobal Creative Publishing Signed Author.

The Princess’ Alpha, Gravestone

What they don’t tell you about fighting a conspiracy is that there are long stretches of time where nothing happens. It had been two weeks since that fateful night, two weeks since we learned the name of our enemy, and…nothing. Absolutely nothing had developed. Not a peep out of the cult, nothing out of the ordinary from our two only suspects. One might get complacent from this, but the Princess, to her credit, kept us on task. 


Well, she did, until the carnival came to Wat. 


“I wish to attend the carnival,” she said. “As a commoner.” 


I nearly choked on my morning coffee. “As…My lady is that really necessary?”


“It is entirely necessary,” she replied. “Every year that carnival comes, and every year I am escorted through in an “official capacity”.”


“Meaning you don’t actually do anything?”
