Kidnapped by My Mate

Kidnapped by My Mate

by Annie Whipple

"I can't think when you touch me," she whispered, fighting the intoxicating pull of his presence.

"You are mine," he said, eyes flashing with primal intensity. "And I am yours. Forever."

The last thing Belle expected on her flight to Paris was to get kidnapped. Grayson was unlike any man she'd ever met--magnetic and devastatingly handsome, his touch sent sparks racing along her skin. But there was something odd about him. The way his men treated him like royalty, his inhuman speed and strength, the way those piercing green eyes would sometimes flash to an unnatural and haunting pure black.

Belle is dragged deeper and deeper into a hidden world full of mystery and danger. Will she be able to escape her captor before she's swallowed whole? Does she even want to?

But when Shade steps into his world, fate refuses to be ignored. Sparks fly, secrets stir, and a bond neither expected begins to form. Yet, with shadows of the past looming and enemies watching, one question remains—will their connection be their salvation or their downfall?

“Big words, human. Only problem is I can smell your arousal a mile away.” He smirked as I blushed.

“Now, move. Before I make you.”

When runaway Kiarra meets mysterious Aidan Gold in a dive bar, she feels an instant connection to the blue-eyed Adonis. But little does she know he’s the alpha of a werewolf pack, and they’re connected by more than lust. In fact, they’re mates.
