Silence of the Wolves

‘Hello, little wolf,’ a voice came from next to the tree. ‘Thought we wouldn’t find you here?’
Alison opened her mouth to scream as two shaven-haired tombs appeared in front of her.
All she managed was a squeak that got cut off as a leather-clad hand clamped around her mouth. Holding a knife to her throat, the tuhrned held her tightly enough to bruise, as the second tomb bent down, binding her ankles with silver.
She whimpered as the metal bit into her skin, but fought as hard as she could, thrashing against the two half-dead men, but she couldn’t get free…
‘We’ve got your soul, little wolf, and the new High Lord wants to meet you.’
Coming Soon….
Song of the Soul
Call of the Wilderness Book Two
In the depths of England, a Kingdom lurks beneath the confines of normality.
A hierarchy of supernaturals run by the strict Council fight daily to keep their world a secret from the humans. With the Council’s structure changing, and the Kingdom struggling to keep up, the rest of the community must keep their heads down and do their duty. Or face the ultimate penalty.
Shifters and vampires have the hardest task of all, fighting in the war against the Circle, a deadly band of rebels who practise blood magic and capture souls in their wake. With the new High Lord in control, life has never been more dangerous.
Alison was born into one of the Council’s leading frontline packs. She’s lived a life of glitz and glamour and has loved every second of it. Until the deadly Circle kidnapped her and bound her soul against her will.
Now she faces a fate worse than death. With her body rotting and her soul held captive, she faces the gravest of choices: does she give up her afterlife to save this one? Or die early and let her soul walk the grey plane alone for the rest of eternity?
When Dax, the White Wolf pack’s resident moody genius realises Alison has been kidnapped, he gives up everything he has to find her; nearly killing himself in the process. He is a lone wolf by nature, and when he finds himself falling in love with a female who not only is the sister of his alpha, but seems to be slowly dying with no hope of salvation, he finds himself changing the very fibre of his being and his morals. Dax will use every available resource to try and help her, even if it means making an alliance with the very darkest of the walking dead. Can death truly be the only way to save her?
