Defying the Alpha

As the Alpha's daughter, Hannah has her life planned out: she will be married to whoever is selected as the new Alpha when her father steps down. However, she is horrified when she finds out that the next Alpha is her childhood bully, Luke Butler. Hannah then finds herself entangled with a mysterious vampire businessman the night of this soul-crushing reveal. With duty calling and sexual tension around the corner, Hannah has a tough decision. Will she defy the Alpha? — “Hannah, you are now eighteen. The time has come for me to pick the new Alpha.” “And my new husband,” I add, translating what this announcement actually means. He doesn’t answer but instead gestures for me to turn around. I do, and as I catch sight of the young man who has entered the room, my heart stops. Behind me stands Luke Butler. My bully since forever. “I refuse him.” Defying the Alpha is created by Jody Tilly, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Chapter 37: Return of the Heat

Hannah’s POV

Since seeing Luke come out of that cave, looking far more regal than he did when he went in, I know I’m going in heat again. My body is banged up and bruised from being tossed around like a rag doll, but certain parts of my body are beginning to stir.

Thankfully, after the bear apologized for nearly killing us, stating it was only doing its job — which could have easily been cleared up if it had asked questions first before attacking — we decide to return to the cave before heading back.

I try to keep some distance between Luke and me, but with my heat getting stronger as the day goes on, I can’t help but be drawn to him. I’m so very aware of everything about him. It is like it was the first time, but instead of being confused by my reactions, I now want to give in to them.
