Her Castle, Her Howl, Her Pack

Lady Faris howls and sinks her teeth into her husband’s neck, marking him for life. She never thought he’d accept her mark—crave it, even—so she always kept her alpha wolf on a tight leash. Until now.

Now that they’ve alienated their closest neighbour by refusing his offer of marriage to their daughter. Now that he’s turning all their allies against them. Between his machinations and the forest that’s inexorably encroaching on their farmland, Faris and her lord won’t be able to keep their people safe and fed until the harvest.

But the earldom’s annual tournament is approaching, and her husband has won three of the last four. Surely that will be enough to convince their allies to side with them? It will have to be enough.
