The Orc's Fated Mate

Madeline Jane I thought breaking up with my fiancé during our romantic getaway would be the worst part of my day. It turned out I was very wrong. In an effort to get far away from that pitiful excuse of a man, I marched my cute, plaid-covered butt into the woods, only to be attacked by demonic-looking creatures in a magical realm. I was saved, or abducted, depending on how you look at it, by a group of strong, green, kind of sexy monsters called Orcs. They led me to their tremendously scary, grumpy, and ready-to-mate chieftain, Brizor. Did I need to get lost in the woods to find my happily ever after?. Brizor The magic in our world was changing, and the real monsters were descending from the North. Being the village leader kept me focused and didn’t leave much time to think about my loneliness and longing for my fated mate. I knew the gods had the fiercest female, perhaps an Ogre or a rare female Orc, put aside somewhere for me. However, the moment I caught the delicious scent of the luscious human, all my rational thoughts were gone. The female I expected no longer mattered. Nothing mattered besides the primal need to claim my sweet mate, protect her, and breed her until she never wants to leave my side. Will the mating bond be enough to keep my delicate Madeline Jane on this side of the magical wall? This story was first featured in the anthology, Into the Woods and is an extended novella.
