Fairytale Shifters

“Koda, if you are going to intimidate everyone that comes over here, then what’s the point of me helping out with the bake sale?”

Snow huffs, and I sit down in the chair behind her, looking

at her lush ass. I lick my lips as she moves around the table selling baked goods at the festival.

We agreed to help out Ruby, Gwen, and Winnie with the fall festival and take a turn selling the baked goods. It’s going on all weekend, and she’s been looking forward to it for months. She started helping out with Ruby’s Goodie Basket right after our mating, saying that she wanted to get out into the town and become a part of our pack community. I knew it would be good for the both of us, so slowly I’ve been integrating into the role of town deputy sheriff. I’ve also been helping her in the bakery and with watching the cubs of our pack.

Snow is about five months pregnant with our second cub, and seeing her like this only turns me on more. We’ve got one girl cub so far, but she thinks this one is a boy. Just like the last one. I don’t care what we have, as long as they are all healthy and happy, just like my mate. Little Snow is at home with her Aunt Winnie and Uncle Stone today, so the time alone is nice. Although I would have liked to have spent it in bed instead of out here in the town, but this makes Snow happy, so I do as she wishes.

“Hey there, pretty lady. Got anything on this table as sweet as you?”

I hear a man’s voice, and I pull my eyes from Snow’s ass to look around her and see a human standing in front of her. If he was a shifter, he would have smelled my scent on her a mile away and know damn well to stay clear.

Slowly, and with as much restraint as I can, I stand up behind Snow. I rise up and tower over the top of her head to look down at this human.

“What did you say?” I ask through gritted teeth.

I hear Snow stifle a laugh, but I don’t think anything about this is funny.

“I, umm, I was, umm.” He tries to stutter out a few sentences, but nothing intelligible leaves his lips.

“Everything is two dollars, and all the proceeds go to the children's playground on Main Street,” Snow says, trying to smooth over the situation.

I loom over her, looking down at this man, daring him to make a move. I would rip out his throat in the middle of this street to show my dominance to all who would think to approach my mate.

Slowly, he pulls his wallet out and takes out a twenty-dollar bill, laying it on the table and backing away. He doesn’t say a word as he backs up and blends into the crowd, never showing me his back.

Snow turns around on me then, putting her hands on her hips and raising an eyebrow. I just shrug my shoulders and sit back down, not even bothering to apologize.

She just lets out a huff like she’s mad, but I see her smiling when she turns back around to the table. That’s fine with me because I get to look at her ass again.

“At least it was a good donation,” she says, picking up the twenty and putting it into the jar.

“At least the view is nice,” I say, and she looks over her shoulder and gives me a wink.

She knows exactly what she’s doing when she wiggles that thing around in front of me, but I just let her pretend she’s innocent as I think about all the ways I’m going to bite it later.

She’s lucky she’s pregnant or I would for sure be putting a baby in her tonight. Mating moon or not, she’s being a tease and she knows it. Snow knows exactly what happens when she pokes at my bear.

Reaching out, I grab her hips and pull her down on my lap. She lets out a squeak and tries to pull away, but she and I both know she doesn’t want to go anywhere. She just likes riling me up.

“You shake that thing in front of me again and I’ll carry you out of here over my shoulder.” I nip at her neck, and it sends a shiver down her spine.

“You promise?” She gives me a wicked smile, and I growl.

“Careful, mate. You’re supposed to be here for another hour.” I rub my hand across her growing belly and feel myself getting harder.

She smacks my leg playfully, and I let her get up out of my lap.

“Then I guess you’ll just have to have some self-control for the next hour.”

I grip the seat, nearly snapping the arms off, and grit my teeth. “Snow, when it comes to you, I’ve never had control.”

She turns around and walks up to me so we are almost eye to eye. “I know, and I love it. Just like I love you.”

The kiss she places on my lips is soft and sweet, but it has me counting down the seconds until I can get her out of here and back in our cabin. When it comes to Snow, I know two things are for sure: I’ll never stop loving her, and I’ll never get enough.

THE END

The Three Bad Wolves

Alexa Riley

Finn, Flint, and Forest have spent their lives looking for their mate. The three brothers have been through everything together, and seeing the rest of their family pair off has been hard to watch. But one day, deep in the woods, a small bunny crosses their path when the three of them are in wolf form. To their surprise, they finally find what they’ve been looking for, but it just so happens they all find it at once.

Luna Hare lost her family long ago, and she’s been traveling to different shifter villages, trying to find one that is the right fit. Secretly she’s been hoping to meet another bunny family and possibly find her mate. She never expected that when she’d come to Gray Ridge, she’d not only find a mate, she would find three. Three enormous wolves that look hungry, and not for food.

Warning: Bunnies like to make babies, so it’s a good thing she’s got three wolves lined up and waiting to take a turn. This shifter book is over-the-top sweet, and just as dirty as the rest. Come back to Colorado with us, and let’s see how this works out. We have a feeling it’s going to be a happily ever after.

To the hubs; my life, my love, my mate.

Chapter 1

Luna

“What do you mean, you don’t have any carrot cake?” I ask. Even I can hear the whine in my voice. I’d been looking forward to this carrot cake all freaking day. I told myself if I got all the weeds in my garden pulled and the vegetables cleared out from the beds, then I could come have a carrot cake break.

“Sorry, Luna, we sold out a little while ago. A wolf came in and cleaned us out.”

“Mangy wolves,” I mumble.

“I heard that!” I hear shouted from the back of the bakery, making me hop back a step. I sniff the air. You’d think for a rabbit shifter I would have a good sense of smell, but nope. My nose is always twitching because I’m curious about smells, but I never have any luck. Although today in the bakery, it does smell extra yummy. It’s not all the mountains of treats either, there’s something else I can’t put my finger on.

I still figure it’s Gwen. She always teases me about all the carrot cake I get.

Ruby smiles politely at me and tries to offer something else. “How about some sugar cookies?”

“No, thanks,” I say sullenly.

“Sorry, Luna. I promise I’ll make more first thing in the morning. If the snow starts early, I’ll even make them especially for you tonight at home.”

“You’re the best, Ruby,” I say, feeling somewhat better.

I leave the bakery, but instead of getting in my car right away, I sit down at the little table outside and enjoy the cool evening air, taking the time to glance around. Not many people seem to be out today.

Fall is over and it’s time to get ready for winter, which I personally love because snow is magical. Being a bunny shifter has some perks, even if I am tiny.

I came to Gray Ridge a few months ago, and Ruby has been so nice to me. She and her mate Dominic have a small house on some land near their property they let me stay in. It’s really small, but I am, too, so it works out. There’s one bedroom, a bathroom, a kitchen, and no walls except for the bathroom. But I have space for a garden out back where I was able to plant some vegetables before it got too cold. But that time is up, and now I can make a fire in my cabin and cuddle up on warm nights.

My thoughts drift to what I’d be doing if I had a mate, and all of a sudden I’m super horny. Another downside to being a rabbit is always wanting sex. They old saying about

“going at it like rabbits” is sadly true. I’ve been in a constant state of arousal one way or another since the day I turned eighteen and the mating heat kicked in. Normally by the age of twenty I would have found someone and made a few dozen babies, but as the years go on, that feels impossible.

Inside, my shifter bunny wiggles, and I sigh. “Sorry, girl. One day,” I say, and then get up from the bench.

I get into my Volkswagen Beetle and reverse out of the parking lot. It’s not a practical vehicle for this kind of weather, but I didn’t really think about it when I moved here. Now that winter approaches, I realize I should probably get something better for navigating the roads of Colorado and trade in my little car.

By the time I get a mile down the road, the snow has already begun to fall. I decide to take a risk and stop for gas. I’m almost on empty and I was always told to fill up before a storm because you just never know.

I grew up in the north east, with parents who were so sweet and loving. But being in a house with ten siblings was enough to drive anyone bonkers. We were all close and got along, but my shifter bunny pulled me in a new direction. I decided to go out on my own after I came of age in my town and I didn’t mate with anyone there. I’d heard about a shifter town in Gray Ridge and figured I didn’t have much to lose. So, I packed up my belongings and hit the road. I still talk with my family almost every day, but I’m happy for the change of scenery. Something about Gray Ridge calls to me, and my little bunny is happy here. This place feels like it might be home, and that’s okay for now. If I really say what my heart wants, it’s to be with my mate and to have babies of my own, but I try not to focus on it. Besides, it just gets me worked up with no way to release.
