“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

“Did they hurt you?” I asked once our kiss ended. 


“Actually no,” she replied, resting her head on my bicep. “I kinda did this to myself. Didn’t look where I was going.”


I chuckled softly and stroked the part of her arm my hand was holding onto. “I leave you alone for five minutes…” The moment ended when more shouting echoed from above and below. Couldn’t go up the stairs, couldn’t go down. Can’t fight with Bel in my arms like this and still unable to move. God, she’s barely conscious…


Can’t shift either, not without some way to secure her to me. Think, Graves, think! “Gravestone!!!” came a familiar voice. “This way!”


No one in this castle could be trusted. Not a single one. But following that voice and thinking of something later was better than standing here. I followed her. At the top of the stairs, to the right, standing by the opened third door on the left, was Allesandra.
