“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

After Gravestone left, I turned to my father, Samuel, and Rutledge. I knew what to do. “So, Duke Rutledge,” I said, sitting in my chair and steepling my fingers. “How long are we going to keep this up?”


“You’re saying it was him?” asked Samuel. My father was still lost in his thoughts, still shaken over the loss of his friend. Don’t worry father, I have the man responsible. Leave this to me. 


“I mean, I didn’t want to be quite so blunt about it,” I said coyly. “But if you’re going to come out and say it, well…”


“I definitely hope you have proof,” said Duke Rutledge. 


“Oh Gravestone is out gathering the proof now. I doubt your assassin has left the castle, because I doubt advisor Price was their only target. Indeed, if you want to spark a war, especially if it’s against your superiors’ orders I’d wager, you’re going to need to be much more thorough.”
