Meet Jun, the leopard cat alpha from HIS OMEGA ON STAGE #Romance #MLM #MPreg #PNR #Omegaverse #8Sunday


Hello and welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!

I'm back, after a couple weekends off, to share a snippet from the fourth book in my Shifter Towers series, HIS OMEGA ON STAGE. Like all the other books in this series, it is an MM paranormal romance.

Set-up: This is from the beginning of the story. Meet Jun, the alpha of the book.


Another day, another dollar. Okay, so I made more than a dollar a day, but that’s how the saying went. I was on my way to work once again. All I seemed to do lately, with nothing to break the monotony of my week. I used to teach guitar lessons to a few high school kids on my days off, but they either went off to college, or had their own part-time job now with no time for lessons anymore. And I hadn’t bothered to look for more students. A boyfriend? Yeah right! Who wanted a leopard cat alpha who worked the evening shift at a record store? One who had a bad boy reputation in high school that hadn’t translated well into adulthood. 

**That's ten, but I've included a little more so you can really get to know Jun.**

I had the occasional lonely omega come into the store at night. But a hookup with them never led to another. At first, that’s exactly what I’d wanted, having been burned by those I’d loved in the past. But, that had quickly become a lonely life. Now, I was “too passionate,” or “an overgrown house cat,” and not at all the type of fun my bed warmers were looking for. I wasn’t the “bad boy” they expected.

So, I worked. And when I wasn’t working, I listened to music at home, sometimes strumming along. That was my life. Boring. And another boring night awaited me at work.


HIS OMEGA ON STAGE
Shifter Towers book four

Jun
For leopard cat shifter, Jun, being the rogue alpha in high school hadn’t helped him as an adult. Though he sometimes believed he was ready to find a mate, past experiences taught him that those he loves eventually leave him. So, he protects his heart by seeing omegas looking for nothing more than a one-night stand. Until he runs into someone from his past.

Ash
As the first omega signed to Adan Records, AI is anxious for the release of his debut album. Being a leopard cat shifter instead of an actual leopard like the rest of his family has always made him feel small and insignificant. But now he’s about to shine bright in front of the world, all on his own, without an alpha by his side. He doesn’t need one, and definitely doesn’t have time for one. Though when he runs into someone from his past who knows him as Ash, he wants to give this alpha all of his attention.

On Stage
But with all the problems that fame brings, will Ash be able to make a relationship work? Will Jun fight for the omega he’s sure is his fated mate? Or will they just let each other slip away, believing what they have just isn’t enough?.

  2. I love how you go against type by showing that even a shifter's life can be dull and boring.

  5. Interesting reversal going on in this story. The bad-boy alpha tamed down and boring, and the omega stepping up to success and the spotlight. Will be fun to see how the affects their relationship. :-)

    1. I've always loved to flip things around. Honestly seemed to work best for this story.

  6. I like the cast of characters and I think taking the bad boy trope and turning it on its head, as not working out well for him, is a great idea. Loved the snippet!

  8. Great opening. I get his frustration with same old, same old. He is ripe for a new love. It will be exciting to see how that goes.
