Hello and welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!
Thank you to all of you who visited my post last weekend! Today I'm continuing BUNNY OMEGA ON THE RUN, an MPreg Omegaverse Pop Star Shifter Romance, which I signed a contract for earlier this week with Decadent Publishing. I will keep you posted as it progresses towards being published.
Set-up: Last weekend, Kish ran from the gunman as soon as he clicked the safety off. This snippet continues from there..
Over fences. Through yards. Down one alley after another. I didn’t stop. Couldn’t stop. My mom and siblings depended on me. I couldn’t help them if I was dead.
After what felt like forever, my thighs burned and chest ached. I had to stop. Or at least slow down.

Bunny Omega on the Run (Shifter Towers book one):
As a pop star, I never expected to find true love. Not in a world where everything is temporary and often fake. But then he ran into me. Not once, but twice. My tiger instantly recognized him as my mate. Now, I just have to convince Kish that what we have is real.
The oldest of ten kids, I saw what my mother went through after my father left. After that, I started taking blockers so I would never go into heat, never have kids. Because love was for the weak. And I was doing just fine on my own.
Then I met TK. Literally smacked right into him. But no matter how much I wanted it to be true, I refused to believe that he could love a bunny shifter from the wrong part of town.
