Alpha Exposed, Anya Breton (paranormal, shape-shifter short novel)
When Samantha's sister goes missing, all signs point to supernatural foul play. Her fellow Air witches won't help, leaving her with one miserable choice — to beg for assistance from Dion Hebert, the odious weretiger Alpha she shot down months ago. In front of his pack. What's a witch to do?
Dion can't believe Samantha has the nerve to come begging after she humiliated him in front of half the supernatural Underground. He agrees to help in exchange for the one thing he's always wanted — Samantha Avira. Naked. Wrapped around him in every delectable position he can imagine. But since the witch humiliated him publicly, Dion wants the sex to be public too.
The thought of getting naked with Dion turns Samantha on, as much as she tries to deny it. The thought of getting naked with him in front of everyone leaves her part aroused and part horrified. When Dion makes good on his end of the bargain, Samantha's deepest, darkest desires are unleashed. And the result is pure, sexy magic that can't be tamed.
