The eve before his debut album releases. Read a snippet from HIS OMEGA ON STAGE #8Sunday #romance #PNR #MPreg #MLM #omegaverse


Hello and welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!

Thank you to all those who visited last weekend! I'm now sharing snippets 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. Exciting news! I just got a contract offer for the story!

Set-up: In last weekend's snippet, Jun was called back into the store to deal with a suspicious customer while Felix was busy. And he thought the person's eyes seemed familiar, but couldn't place them. This weekend, I'm skipping to the next chapter to answer some of your questions. This is in Ash's point of view.


It was him. It was really him. I let out a squeal then rolled my eyes at myself, thankful no one was in the elevator with me. I was acting like I did in high school when I saw my crush. Instead, I was seven years older, and still freaking out over him on the eve before one of the most important days of my life.

When the doors opened, I exited the elevator and headed to the artists’ lounge, unable to stop the skip in my step. Why was I more excited about seeing him than my album about to drop? It’s not as if he knew who I was. I’d made sure of that, wearing my hat and mask in the record store. I hadn’t wanted to be recognized by my fans. 

**That's ten, but I've included a little more so you can get to know Ash (AI) a little more**

Yet, he was one person I would love to reveal my identity to, my true self. Not my stage name. Though I doubted he’d know me anyway. In high school, I’d stood in awe, like a statue, as he passed me in the halls, and got excited if he even looked in my general direction. Never got up the courage to say a word to him though. Not even once. Had I not been in disguise, I still would have been just some younger omega who shopped in the store he worked.

In the lounge, I laid across the long, white leather couch, disappointed in how I’d reacted seeing Jun again. First, I’d panicked when I realized who was talking to me. Then I’d made up some story about a sister I didn’t have. A brother, yes. One the same age as Jun. One who knew I’d had a crush on the alpha loner, and told me to stay away from him.


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?.

  1. This passage makes your shifter main character very human.

    1. Yes, and in his shifted form, he is very cat-like. Though, he does spend most of his time as a human.

  2. This really shows us how important Jun is to Ash. Even more important than his new record! I agree with what Ed said, too. I like that he's unsure and vulnerable. :-)

    1. Thank you, Teresa! Yes, though he doesn't know what Jun is like now, as it's been many years since he's seen him.

  3. I LOVE this scene, Jessica. Such longing and vulnerability showing even someone who seems to have everything can be missing the one thing he desires most.

  7. So many complications to this possible relationship.

  8. It's sweet that Ash is still so shy and vulnerable. I bet Jun Jun did notice him in high school!

    1. Yes, even though he's been in the public eye a bit, it's only a persona. He's always been really shy. As for whether Jun noticed him or not, that will be answered in a later excerpt.

  9. Great snippet because wow, I really felt all the feels and emotions your character is having, made me smile and made me anxious for him too!

  11. He hasn't changed much since high school, but maybe this time he'll get up the courage to speak.

    1. He's changed in many ways, but not in all ways. But, the opportunity to see Jun again is about to arise.

  12. He does seem to have reverted to his high school age--which is a very natural thing to do. Makes him seem very normal--and reveals his true self. Great snippet!
