The Wolf’s Torment
Stephanie Burkhart
BLURB:
It's
1865 and Moldavia is a country nestled against the shores of the Black Sea.
Lady Theresa travels from Austria to this country that's haunted by tales of
vampires and werewolves. She's going to marry the Crown Prince, but she harbors
her own unspoken secrets.
Prince
Mihai has just returned to Moldavia to discover he's a witch. He's intent on
being a good husband and modernizing his country, but he must find a balance
with his supernatural heritage. His best friend, Viktor, accompanies Mihai and
marries Mihai's sister. In an unfortunate twist of fate, a werewolf bites
Viktor.
Viktor's
transformation threatens everyone around him, including his wife's safety and
Mihai's happiness, but he's especially dangerous when he's near Theresa. Can
Mihai save his family from Viktor's lies and deceptions?
Excerpt:
"Introducing
Austrian Duke, Georg von Kracken, and his daughters, Ladies Theresa and
Beatrice."
All the eyes
in the ballroom turned on Theresa. The weight of the silence fell onto her
shoulders.
Why did it feel like she had an itch on her nose that under no circumstances
she should scratch right now, though she was tempted.
Her father
placed his hand in the small of her back and escorted her right up to the
Moldavian royal family. King Stelian stood in the middle, Princess Sonia was on
his left, and Prince Mihai was to his right.
She lightly
nipped at her lower lip with her teeth. Her dream had done Prince Mihai no
justice. He stood straight and tall, his stance emphasizing the force of his
thighs and the slimness of his hips. His body was beautifully proportioned with
dark, smoldering green eyes framing his handsome face. What firm lips he had.
She tried hard not to stare at him, but his good looks had totally captured her
attention.
Her father
tapped her lightly against her back. Damn. She had to curtsey. Lowering her
eyes, she did just that. Beatrice curtsied as well.
"King
Stelian, Crown Prince Mihai, Princess Sonia, may I introduce you to my
daughters, Theresa and Beatrice."
Theresa's
gaze swept over Mihai. His red, rich lips curved into a smile and he took her
hand, placing a delicate kiss on her knuckles. A pleasant wave of heat slid up
her arm and she took a quick breath to steady herself.
"Lady
Theresa, you are more beautiful in person than in a dream." Mihai's
wonderfully deep voice warmed her to her toes.
"Thank
you, Your Majesty."
