But once the sexy pack leader, Sawyer, claimed Hailey for himself, she discovered that belonging to the pack master is the best thing that had ever happened to her. The insatiable alpha treats her well, drives her absolutely wild in bed, and his possessive streak keeps Hailey safe from the rest of his lusty wolf pack. Until a tall, dark and menacingly sexy new werewolf insists that Sawyer can't keep Hailey all to himself, that is. Soon, the whole pack demands that the alpha wolf share what he's claimed as his own... Can Hailey handle being taken by an entire pack of horny werewolves? WARNING! This 6,700 word short story contains very explicit descriptions of sexual content, including rough group sex with a pack of werewolves that will leave you trembling and begging for more... Here's a little taste of what's in store: “What are you going to do, little bitch? Are you going to fight off a whole pack of werewolves?” The menacingly sexy wolf, Rand, leaned down so that his face was mere inches from mine. His hard body pressed against me, and the leather of his jacket felt so rough against my bare breasts, the unforgiving wood of the table rough against my back. His hot breath washed over me, and he smelled like whiskey, smoke and something darker, something musky and raw and animalistic. “No, you’re not going to go anywhere,” His copper eyes were fiery, and his grip on me tightened. My heart was pounding so hard that I thought it would burst right through my chest, and I felt a wave of inexplicable heat wash over me, leaving every inch of my body tingling fiercely. “You’re going to be a good little bitch and give every single wolf here a taste of you. And you’re going to like it. Hell, I bet before long, you’re going to be begging for more.” I was utterly terrified, but I couldn’t deny that there was also some small part of me lit up at his words, and it made my blood run hot in my veins. I could hardly believe it, but I was actually turned on by the idea of being taken by this massive werewolf, and all of the other members of the wolf pack...

This smoking hot 4,700 word erotic story contains very explicit sexual content, including: one curvy heroine, an overwhelmingly sexy werewolf alpha and his pack of horny wolves and hard, hot sex that will leave you trembling and begging for more... Here's a taste: Sawyer looked down at me, his midnight blue eyes intense. “You belong to me now. You understand that? You’re mine.” I opened my mouth to reply, to tell him no, I did not understand that, not by a long shot, but he continued before I could say anything. “You’re mine, and you’ll do what I tell you to, when I tell you to. Remember that, and we’ll get along just fine.” My heart was pounding in my chest so loudly that I was sure Sawyer, Ben, Mick and the werewolves could all hear it. And what would happen if we didn’t get along just fine? The thought scared the hell out of me. I stared into the distance, and I said nothing. What was there to say? He brought a hand to my face, and I flinched at the unexpected contact. Sawyer ran a strong, rough finger along my cheek, over my jaw, and under my chin. His touch was surprisingly gentle, and he tilted my face up, forced me to meet his gaze. “I’m not an easy man to please, and I’m not gonna go easy on you.” He said, and my eyes widened. I felt my insides tighten at his words. “But I won’t do anything I don’t think you can handle. You understand?” He asked, and his eyes blazed into mine. He seemed genuinely sincere when he said that. And when I looked into his intense blue eyes, I realized that I believed him. Some of my terror from before began to ebb, and I gave Sawyer a small nod, letting him know that I understood. That I trusted him. “You gonna let us screw this one?” Mick asked, breaking the intense moment that Sawyer and I had been sharing. Sawyer tore his eyes from mine and looked around at the men and the wolves that were surrounding us. “Maybe,” Sawyer said, and I gulped. “But I’m gonna have to break her in first.” And before I knew what was happening, Sawyer’s impossibly strong arms were around me, pulling me forward and holding me close to him. There were hoots and howls as he lifted me off the ground and pressed me into his chest. My legs went around his waist instinctively, and his hands cupped my behind...

Sold To The Werewolf (a curvy BBW alpha wolf paranormal erotica)

Graveyard Bang Gang

Ambitious Jessica Landry's gained unbelievable wealth and success since joining the mysterious Order and participating in their sex rituals. But she wants even more. The demonic Ancient One promises to fulfill all of her wildest dreams... For a price. Will Jessica go through with her side of the deal, and allow the demon to impregnate her with his monstrously huge cock? Warning! This 4000 world erotic short story contains: a secret society, a sexy blonde tied to a bed, a ritual orgy, a hulking, horny demon, forked tongue oral sex, and demonic breeding that will leave you quivering and begging for more... AN EXCERPT: I felt myself growing warm and wet, as the beginnings of a fire sparked deep inside of me. The Ancient One was still at the foot of the bed, and his lips curled up in a lusty smile that showed razor sharp teeth. He stroked his impossibly large erection again, and I felt my breath quicken. He climbed onto the bed, and in a flash he was on top of me. The feel of his solid, muscular bulk against my naked skin was incredible. He was shockingly hot to the touch, and his smooth scales were like liquid flames against my skin. His breath was hotter still, and smelled of sulfur. I looked into his flaming eyes, and I knew that I should have been scared, terrified even. I should have been appalled by the thought of having sex with this monster. I should have been absolutely disgusted, horrified at the idea of being filled with his demon seed. But I wasn't. The Ancient One was strangely alluring, and I felt inexplicably drawn to him. I found myself writhing under his hulking form, enjoying the sensation of his hot scales pressed against my soft flesh. It left me feeling hypersensitive, like all of my nerve endings were alive and humming. "Just look at you. So fresh, so ready for me." The demon said, in his otherworldly, deep voice. "You're going to love this." He leaned down and crashed his black lips into mine. They felt like fire against me, and my lips parted under their assault. His tongue, like molten lava, slipped into my mouth, and he swirled it around. Holy. Shit. Was it... Forked? I gasped against his lips as I felt his tongue moving, very distinctly, in two different directions. It stroked my tongue, but it also slid against the roof of my mouth, tracing a maddening pattern. Well, this was certainly going to be interesting...
