Honor of the Wolf
(The Gray Pack Book 6)
Being a Beta wolf in the Gray Pack is one of the highest
honors Luke Gray has ever attained, but he wants so much more for himself and
his pack. The recent shift in mating habits, has disturbed his idyllic view of
their way of life, and worse yet, no one else seems to understand his point of
view.
Tavi Reid is a woman full of grit, and determination. She’s
come too far, and worked too hard to let an arrogant man with a chip on his
shoulder throw her off track. Even if he’s sexy as hell and makes her weak in
the knees, she has to stay focused on her daughter and their future.
They are both tested with traumatic new changes to their
lives, but will they lean on each other to get them through, or will these two
independent individuals end up with disaster on their hands? Honor is not a
right, it’s earned…

Excerpt:
“Why
are you here, Luke?” she asked softly, tipping her head to look up at him. In
the shadows of the night, he looked lethal and sexy as hell. His granite sharp
jaw working with tension, and his full lips pursed in thought.
“I
needed to see you again.”
She
shook her head, “Why? Didn’t we say everything we needed to say last night?
You’re a young, sexy, single guy looking for a one-night stand, and I’m a
tired, single mom. That’s like trying to mix oil and water. It won’t work.”
“You
think I’m sexy?” he asked, the corner of his mouth curving up. She laughed, and
shook her head. “Look, Tavi, I don’t know why I’m here, or honestly how I ended
up here.” The genuine look of confusion on his face concerned her, but it was
the honesty in his eyes when he lowered to a crouch in front of her, that
really stole her heart. “I feel like there’s something in my chest that’s
connected to you. When I try to stay away it pulls me back. I don’t understand
it, and I don’t know how else to explain it, but it’s there. I don’t know shit
about relationships, so I can’t promise you more, but—”
“Did
you hit your head, Luke? I have a daughter. I don’t do one-night stand, and I
sure as hell don’t do them with men who stalk me.” She interrupted, frustrated
by the deep desire in her heart to say yes.
“Stalk
you?”
She
gestured around them, “Well I don’t see you visiting so often for the
ambiance.”
“I’m
not trying to stalk you. Shit. I just want to spend some time with you.”
“So
what, you’re going to get to know me out of curiosity?”
“No!
Yes. Maybe? I don’t know.” He looked so confused and frazzled that it made
Tavi’s heart ache for him. She wasn’t sure she wanted him to know how strong
the feelings in her own body were right now.
“When
you do know what you want, you know where to find me.” She stood and turned to
leave, only to run smack into his hard chest. With a startled yelp she clutched
his shirt to keep from falling over. She had no idea how he’d moved so quickly,
but she didn’t have time to ask before his mouth came down on hers.
She
might have chalked up yesterday’s physical reaction to a fluke, but as he
pulled her in close and ravished her mouth she felt her heart pounding in her
chest. This was no fluke. This was passion, and a perfect feeling of rightness
in the world. Luke fit her like a puzzle piece, and together they were
explosive.
Pulling
back, she ended the kiss with a gasp of fresh air and a groan of
disappointment. There was no way she could keep putting him off if he kept
kissing her.
“Luke,
I can’t.”
His
eyes flashed in the shadows of the night, and she could see his jaw muscle
clenching in frustration. “Why?”
“I’ve
already told you why. I don’t want either of us to get hurt. You aren’t what I
need in my life.” She backed away from him, pulling her coat tight around her
chest to combat the icy cold air on her scorching hot body.
“How
do you know that if you won’t even get to know me?”
She
shook her head and fought back tears. “I’ve already survived one man who
convinced me to listen to my body instead of logic.”
A
heavy silence settled between them, and Tavi felt torn. Her instincts were
telling her to throw herself back into his arms and hold on for dear life. She
wanted to spend eternity wrapped up in his embrace. But it just wasn’t the
right thing for her, or her daughter.
“I’ve
got to get back to work. Go home, Luke, and forget this ever happened.” She
made it to the parking lot before he spoke again, but his words echoed in her
head for the rest of the night.
“I
can’t. I wish I could baby, but I can’t.”
Lori’s Bio:
Best-selling
author, Lori King, is also a full-time wife and mother of three boys. Although
she rarely has time to just enjoy feminine pursuits; at heart she is a hopeless
romantic. She spends her days dreaming up Alpha men, and her nights telling
their stories. An admitted TV and book junkie, she can be found
relaxing with a steamy story, or binging in an entire season of some show
online. She gives her parents all the credit for her unique sense of humor and
acceptance of all forms of love. There are no two loves alike, but you can love
more than one with your whole heart.
