And now thereās only one way to bring peaceāthe current alphas of each pack, Marrok and Tala, need a mating of convenience.
Tala has her doubts. A thousand of them.
Never mind that Marrok drives her body to levels of desire her vibrator has trouble keeping up with. If she canāt get her inner wolfāor her peopleāon board, forget peace, because she'll lose the tenuous control she has over the Canis pack. Her new mate is just so damn alpha. Heād better learn to play nice or Tala will have to show him whoās boss.

The Demigod Complex
Brimstone Inc book 1
by Abigail Owen
Genre: Paranormal Romance
When Lyleia Naiad was head-hunted by Brimstone, Inc., for her job as Executive Assistant to a high-powered billionaire demigod, she was given one directiveādo NOT fall in love with Castor Dioskouri. Doesnāt matter if he is the son of Zeus and can electrify a room with a single glance. As an ex-nymph, she possesses a unique abilityāa gift from the goddesses to protect nymphs from the randy godsāto resist her boss's charms.
Or so she thought.
He insists she accompany him to an alpha wolf shifter mating ceremony, an event where the pheromones fly, and so do clothes...and inhibitions.
Goddesses save her, because Castor has stolen into Lyleiaās heart, and sheās not so sure she can hold out much longer..
His eager wolf practically
burst from his body, forcing the shift faster than Marrok liked. Heād been
wanting to play with Talaās wolf for weeks. Months even.
Taking her in now, he gave a
happy wag of his tail. Tala was a lovely wolf, all white with grey socks and
grey around her face, slender and lean, shorter than he and smaller by at least
thirty percent. No wonder she had chosen to become a weapons expert as her
preferred form of fighting. Heād seen her wolf before, of course, but theyād
been busy with a battle against a werewolf at the time.
Marrok loosed a playful growl,
bunching his muscles to pounce. But Tala turned on him, dropped her head, her
ears flattened, and she exposed her teeth. A menacing growl, nothing like the
playful one heād issued, ripped from her throat.
What the hell?
āTala?ā he reached out with the
telepathic connection all shifters shared when in animal form.
She didnāt answer. Staying low
to the ground, she inched forward, her threat clear. Get away or pay with your life.
Marrok stood his ground and did
his best not to react to her aggression even as reverberation of shock passed
though him. He couldnāt believe his mate was posturing to attack.
āTala?ā he
tried again. āTalk to me.ā
With a suddenness that upped
his shock to cannon blast levels, she lunged. He turned in time to keep those
deadly teeth from ripping out his throat.
His mate had gone mad.
He couldnāt let her kill him.
Marrok used his experience fighting in this form to twist around her. With a
burst of strength and speed, he barreled into her side, knocking her to the
ground. In a flash, he was on top of her. Using his greater bulk, he pinned her
to the ground. She went berserk, thrashing underneath him, snapping at him.
Somehowānot easy around her snarling jaws and trying not to actually harm
herāMarrok managed to get her neck between his teeth. He applied just enough
pressure to get through and force her to stillness, her sides heaving.
āDonāt make me do this,ā he shoved the though as
hard as he could, hoping to get through.
It took forever. Tala had to be
fighting her animal from inside, but the rage that could overcome a wolf
shifter had taken hold, making it near impossible to shift back. Finally, the
tell-tale shimmering hovered around her form, blurring her in his vision this
close up.
Once she was human enough,
Marrok released her and backed off, making the change himself.
Breathing hard, they stared at
each other.
āWhat the hell was that, Tala?ā
Her pale face reminded him of
the moonācold, remote, and unreachable. āI donāt know. She took over
completely. I could hear you and see what was happening, but I couldnātā¦ā She
shook her head. āI mean, sheās been standoffish about you lately, but why would
my wolf want to attack her mate?ā
