Thomas Crane Library Hours

Olivia Thomas is a waitress in a nightclub and the most excitement she has in her life is when a drunk customer babbles their sob stories to her. So boring, right?  And that’s the exact way Olivia wants things because behind her facade of average looks and mundane life, there lies a secret. A secret that means losing everything she craves to have; freedom, a chance to love, and much more. Because Olivia is not just the run off the mill human. She is a female werewolf in disguise; and considering that the wolves were under a curse that just about eliminated the female population, female wolves were very rare and treasured.  That means if ever her identity is revealed, she will be claimed by the nearest male wolf who could make her submit to him. Olivia has big dreams in life and her plans don’t include delivering a litter of pups for some domineering male wolf.  But what if her secret is revealed one night? What if her attempts to escape turns futile and she is claimed against her will? And that too by Alpha Tyson Gray, one of the most ruthless Alphas the world had ever seen and fears? Will Olivia escape the Alpha’s claim or will she be the one to finally tame him? Or is there more to their story than what meets the eye?

My husband's first love had been trapped in a car for an hour. After they pulled her out, his rage shifted onto me. “It’s your fault she got hurt,” he spat, his eyes blazing as he grabbed me. Before I could make sense of what was happening, he forced me into a wooden box, slamming the lid down with a deafening crack. “You’re going to feel every ounce of the pain she went through,” he hissed, nailing it shut. I pounded on the walls, my screams tearing through the air. “Please, I didn’t do anything! Let me out!” My throat burned with the effort, my fists aching, but nothing stopped him. “Stay in there until you’ve figured out how to act like a decent human being,” he said, his voice cold, dripping with contempt. Hours passed. My body twisted unnaturally in the tight space, bones throbbing as blood smeared the wood beneath me. I whispered into the dark, the pain unbearable. "Please… just let me out…" But he didn’t care. A week later, he returned, his laughter echoing with hers as they entered the house, carefree from their trip. He finally opened the box. But by then, I was already gone. The woman he locked away was no longer breathing, no longer pleading. Just a cold, silent corpse.
