“What brings you to Driftwood Cove?”

Alec’s face goes cold for a moment, barely noticeable if I hadn’t been looking directly at him. “I’m a nomad of sorts. Been traveling for a few years. Finally made it back to the coast.” It’s vague, and I narrow my eyes.

“Nomad? Meaning you’ve been wandering around the wilderness for years with no money or job?”

Alec laughs, “Hah, no. More like a lone wolf, traveling the world searching for a new life.” His eyes catch mine, searching for something. “A new family.”
*****
In the seaside town of Driftwood Cove, a witch named Leena dutifully looks after her family’s florist shop until a mysterious, rogue Alpha named Alec drifts in. Leena expects a steamy one-night stand. But, Alec’s dark past resurfaces and threatens their relationship. Will Leena overcome the threat, or will Alec’s flippancy towards life be more than Leena bargained for?

The Witch's Unconventional Alpha

It’s barely eight in the morning and the ground outside of the tent may as well be another pool of water with how flooded the ground is. And Alec is still sound asleep, the rain a metronome that’s proven to keep him lethargic and quiet even on his most energetic days. It’s both a blessing and a curse, allowing me to drink my fill of him while he’s still, but also allows my mind to wander into places I’m not entirely comfortable with.


Yesterday feels like a dream, and waking up curled into Alec’s chest like I belong there sends a spike of confusing emotions ricocheting through my stomach. But before I can delve too deep into it, he’s stirring softly beside me, one eye cracking open and immediately looking for me. When he finds me his other opens, flipping onto his back and folding his arms behind his head as I look down at him from where I’m sitting.


“Morning.” He says, and I don’t think I’ll ever get used to his morning voice.
