Bag the Beast: Tales of the Hardwood Pack

5 Short stories…. BAG THE BEAST Stealing from the big bad werebear's pumpkin patch may not be such a hot idea… Clement is a submissive wolf with less sense than most. To win the town's Thanksgiving pie-baking contest, Clement needs the best pumpkins, and only farmer Dall grows those. Dall, the reclusive werebear, is called The Beast for a reason. He's crazy mean. Some say not right in the head, but…what are the chances Dall is Clement's fated one? Clement got more than he bargained for, but what's life without a little heat? Can Clement make the best pie, bag the Beast and win his happily-ever-after? HIS ERRANT RUNT Submissive Omega Brian Weller is the runt of the litter. The blind pup no one wanted. Brian knows he's not mate-worthy material. He left home ten years ago and didn't expect to come back scarred and heartbroken. Brian certainly didn't expect to see his crush Tyler, but gone is his childhood friend. Domineering and possessive, Tyler Jones is now Alpha of the Hardwood Pack. He's waited ten long years for Brian and he's done waiting. Now that the runt's home, Tyler intends to claim Brian, make him his and never let him go. BEST OF THE LITTER I never expected things to turn out like this. To be summoned by a group of powerful wolves. Presented like a sacrificial offering, a gift, to a powerful Beta capable of setting my body on fire. To be wanted so badly. Be good enough to be a worthy mate. If Ray Torres wants me to howl for him, all I can do is ask: how loud? PET MINE Randy: I shouldn't want him this much, but I do. Chad's my boss and the enforcer for the Hardwood Pack. Me? I'm an unwanted Omega with no mate. We come from different worlds, but our paths keep colliding. My human half warns me to stay away. My wolf wants the opposite. All I want is to be his mate. His pet, but will he end up breaking my heart? Chad: I'm not a man who takes rejection easily. I get what I want, who I want. Each time Randy Donalds walks into my office, I want him twice as bad. Not want. Possess. Cherish. Love. Randy's going to be mine, no matter the cost. DIRTY NAUGHTY MUTT I am a lone Alpha without a mate, a man missing half his soul, but I'm done wandering from one place to the next. Seeing Jonas, the young bartender and Omega, I knew he was the one. Jonas is young and eager to please, reluctant because he's been hurt before, but I can change that. Jonas is desperate for some action. Deep down, he wants to be my dirty, naughty mutt. He'll submit beautifully. It's only a matter of time before I own him, body, heart, and soul.
