Falling for the Alpha
In a world of hidden shifters, Sophie, a Darach werewolf, seeks refuge from a relentless Alpha Xavier who claims her as his mate. But when a chance encounter in a quiet bar leads to a brutal attack, Sophie finds herself caught in a web of pack politics, ancient secrets, and an unexpected connection to Alpha Nathan, a powerful leader whose intentions remain a mystery. Can she trust him with her life, her secrets, and her heart before it's too late?The clatter of glasses and the low hum of conversation were Sophie's constant companions in the small bar. She moved with practiced ease, clearing tables, her gaze scanning for Rachel, who was frantically shaking her head towards a booth in the back.
Sophie rolled her eyes. Rachel's latest crush. Another young man, immersed in the menu. Sophie had been here three months, long enough to see Rachel fall for every fresh face, usually ending with them in their shared apartment above the bar.
“Excuse me, is it ok if I move tables?”
The voice was right behind her. Rachel's target. Dark, messy hair, chocolate eyes. He was handsome, Sophie had to admit. She opened her mouth to say yes, but then the door behind them opened, and the scent hit her. A werewolf. Her blood ran cold. She nodded quickly, trying to move past him.
He stepped in front of her. “I wasn’t expecting to meet anyone quite so like me out here in the sticks,” he said, glancing at her name badge. “Sophie, is that your name?”
“Yes, please take a seat, and I'll get someone to take your order.” Sophie forced a smile, her mind racing. This was exactly what she'd feared.
