“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

Gravestone made it clear before entering the inn last night the importance of waking up at the crack of dawn, as we would need to get back into the castle as quickly as possible. Sure, we were most likely found out and would have a lot of explaining to do, but he seemed adamant about sneaking back in being the best course of action for my dignity. 


Good thing, then, that I got the best sleep of my life! 


I woke up with a stretch that I swear took several years of stress off my life. My only worry was how I was going to handle sleeping alone from tonight onward, because being wrapped up in that man’s arms gave me the kind of sleep you want to have every night. Speaking of that man, I turned with a sleepy giggle to my bedmate…who was staring with bloodshot eyes at the wall to the right of the bed, unmoving and unphased. He hadn’t slept a wink.
