Hello and welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!
Thank you to all of you who visited me last weekend! MINK OMEGA IN HIDING is an MM paranormal romance, the second book in my Shifter Towers series, is now available.
Set-up: In last weekend's snippet. Roan opened up a little more, and they were starting to feel comfortable with each other again. I'm skipping ahead quite a bit. Hansol has given Roan his own room, and a job at his gym. It's not glamorous, but Roan is still thankful to be contributing somehow. Unfortunately, it's there that Roan's past catches up with him. (Awkward punctuation to make it fit the 10 line limit.)
“Wow, I thought I recognized that ass.” He pushed me against the wall, pressing his groin against my stomach. “How did you get all the way here? I know you don’t belong to Tuan anymore, since he was murdered, but I thought Stone would have laid his claim on you by now.”
I gasped. Murdered; that’s what happened; that’s why the police were there? I wanted to be happy, thankful he could never come looking for me, that he’d never hurt me again. Somehow that past life had still found me.
“No, I don’t belong to anyone.” I tried to duck away from him, escape as I already had once, but he maintained his hold, pressing his forearm to my neck.

Shifter Towers book two
Roan is looking for a way out...
As a mink shifter omega, I never thought I’d escape the soul-crushing, gang-ruled world I lived in. But, one night on my way home from working at the strip club, the opportunity arose. I needed to find a place to hide, somewhere I could go where no one from this life would ever find me. Someplace I could start over. With my parents deceased, I only had one person from my past I could ask for help. But would he want to see me again?
Hansol has everything in his life, except his mate…
After two years of running a successful fitness center with celebrities as my personal clients and friends, one would think I had everything I’ve ever wanted. But I don’t. The one thing I still desire is to have my mate by my side. Something my sun bear keeps reminding me of every day. Sure, I’ve had plenty of omegas and other alphas in my bed, but no one I want to wake up with each morning. That person left my life years ago with no explanation and no goodbye.
Will they find their way back to each other?
Then Roan shows up on my doorstep, soaking wet, and with no belongings. Of course, I take him in. But I don’t know how long I have until he leaves again. Can I trust him this time? Can I finally claim him as my mate? Or am I holding onto false hope? Because I know there is something he is keeping from me.
Mink Omega in Hiding is a super sweet with knotty heat shifter M/M mpreg romance featuring a mink shifter escaping horrific abuse, a reconnection with an alpha friend from the past who stands between him and danger, and the discovery of what really could happen between them. It is the second book in the popular Shifter Towers series and can be read as a standalone.

Life as a mink omega seems pretty tough.
ReplyDeleteRoan did have a rough few years.
DeleteThat's a really tough position to be in, on multiple levels!
ReplyDeleteIndeed.
DeleteHe's in for a bad time but maybe, just maybe someone wonderful will save him.
ReplyDeleteMaybe...
DeleteOh dear, an ugly situation! I hope someone comes to his rescue (or he figures a way out) SOON. I like all the plot complications - great snippet.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Veronica! More to be revealed from this scene next weekend.
ReplyDeleteThis is a cool twist! My brain is screaming..."Now what???" Good snippet, Jessica!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Teresa! Getting my post prepared to give answers next weekend.
DeleteThe bad guys always find you just when things are looking up. I hope Hansol comes along and shows this guy the door--by slamming him through it. Very tense snippet.

DeletePoor guy finds trouble everywhere.
ReplyDeleteOr trouble finds him...
DeleteWhere's his White Knight when he needs one? He's in a tough position. I hope he figures a way out.
