HER ALPHA

Enormous, scarred and scary, Black Ridge Wolf Pack leader Aldric Forst has never drawn the eye of any Omega. Why would he? But, on this, the night of what he swears is his last selection celebration, everything is different.

No force—no matter how dark, no matter how powerful—will take Helena from him.

Excerpt



Princess Helena took that moment to turn toward him again. Instantly, his heart raced, his palms became sweaty, and a nervous excitement rolled around in his stomach, which he wasn’t entirely sure he liked. After all, he was a feared warrior, people looked to him for guidance and strength, and now he felt like he was going to pass out because a gorgeous woman was smiling at him with such joy.
As Amalia spoke to Helena, the princess’s small omega stone on her forehead glowed, and it was impossible to miss the waves of happiness coming from her.
“Looks like the princess is happy you agreed to dance with her, brother.” Godric looked about ready to burst with excitement. “Should I call home and have the rest of our party get on the road?”
“No, not yet, Godric. Let’s see how the evening goes first. Then we can call in reinforcements.” Aldric didn’t want to get ahead of himself. He refused to be let down again. “What do you think Lady Amalia meant by she’d waited years?”
“I have no idea, but I do know the only way you’re going to find out is by asking the princess herself. Ready to waltz, brother?”
“At least all mother’s lessons are about to come in handy. What if she expects our normal life to be like this?” Aldric panicked.
“Okay, now you’re just looking for problems that aren’t even here yet. Get out there and sweep that princess off her feet with the alpha you are. Wait until I tell Cassandra she was right yet again.” Godric had a look of absolute glee at the prospect of making that call back to the pack.
“Yeah, well, if Cassandra was right about this, brother, then she also predicted that I would have to fight for my omega.”
Godric turned to face Aldric and all humor fled from his expression. “If we have to fight for your omega, then it’ll damn well be one we win, I can assure you of that. If this night goes well, I’ll be calling in more warriors as well. They will be here before the sun rises.” Both Theron and Tofa nodded in agreement, even if Theron continued to tap away on his tablet.

“We shall see, Godric. Let’s hope I don’t step on her foot. Then it may be the royal guard we need to fight.” Aldric laughed as he, Godric, Theron, and Tofa stood and made their way across the ballroom to stand in front of King Leonidas, Queen Alexandra, and Princess Helena.
Princess Helena was simply stunning; her emerald green eyes beamed with happiness as he approached. Aldric had never felt this level of immediate attraction before in his lifetime. Helena’s curly blonde hair was pulled away from her face, showcasing her royal tattoo and tiny vines twisting down her slender neck to her collarbone. Her smile lit up everyone and everything around her and her green eyes shone with happiness.
Aldric, Godric, Theron, and Tofa stood before the king and queen, bowing respectfully and waiting for King Leonidas to speak. The entire time, Aldric hoped like hell he didn’t screw this up.
The room had grown strangely quiet.

Interview:


Please welcome Omega's Choice author Lilli Carlisle to Diane’s Book Blog. 

How long did it take you to write Omega's Choice ?


It took me over eight months to write Omega’s Choice and several more months editing it before I submitted it to my publisher, Boroughs Publishing Group.



If you could be best friends with one of your characters, who would it be?


Helena. She’s kind, caring, and kick-ass when necessary. 



What inspired you to write your first book?


Imagination and the yearning to change stories to fit my vision of what should happen next. I wrote my first book when I was a teenager. It was an action adventure, inspired by my love of the Indiana Jones series. But as I got older and I wrote more romance, I realized how much I loved the romance genre and especially paranormal romance.



Who or what inspired you to be a writer?


I grew up on a farm, and you had to rely on your imagination to have fun a lot of the time. I would imagine whole story lines in my head, and as I got older I began writing them down in journals that I still have.



How do you overcome writer’s block?


Writer’s block is tricky. I need to push through it and write no matter what comes out, and trust me, a lot of the strangest things I’ve ever written come out in those times.



Can you share a little of your current work with us?


Currently I’m working on the next book in the Black Ridge Wolf Pack series. The book revolves around two characters you meet in Omega’s Choice, Ceva and Lothar. The book’s title will be Ceva’s Chance and I’ve indulged more of my world building since this book delves deeper into where they live and fall in love. 



What book are you reading now?


The book I’m reading now is Shadow Reaper by Christine Feehan.



Do you have anything specific that you want to say to your readers?



I love to hear from my readers, so please reach out through social media. And, thank you for reading Omega’s Choice. I hope you love the world I created as much as I love writing about it and the characters that live there.
