Blood Moon Betrayed
Teresa D’ Amario
Wild Child Publishing
Sean left
his pack, searching for an inner peace destroyed when his one daughter was shot
and the other kidnapped and tortured.
Not to mention his mate had left
him. He gave up his position as
pack leader and headed out to the woods.
But when he found a woman being beaten by two humans, he is jolted by the
realization she's his True mate.
Caden lives
in fear, and at last her terror has caught up with her. Her ex-husband has decided it's time for her
to die. Just as she's about to breathe
her last, a man tells her everything is going to be okay.
But how can
it be, when her ex-husband still wants her dead?
And once
Sean brings her back to his home, secrets are revealed, and it seems no one is
going to be okay. For as the blood moon
rises in the October sky, betrayal is in the wind, and upon it floats the scent
of death.
Excerpt:
Dierdre was
still beside him, her hands brushing Sean’s arm. He jerked back, but not before
the female offered a grin.
“Keep your
hands off my mate, you bitch.”
“He’s
mine,” snarled the shewolf.
Caden
shrugged, moving onto the balls of her feet. She considered dumping her heels,
but decided they may just give her the advantage. The wolven female wore
sensible, soft-soled shoes. The bitch’s kicks would be soft, though solid.
Caden’s would hurt more, but might not knock her as far. But most never
understood the power of a well-made stiletto. A well-placed heel could be as
painful as a bullet.
“I don’t
know what you think you’re getting out of this, but you’re going down. Here and
now,” Caden taunted her, waiting for the first strike. Caden knew Dierdre was
measuring her weaknesses, just as she watched Dierdre’s. Someone tossed the
shewolf a branch. The wood was a foot longer than Caden’s cane, but was made of
pine. Pine was one of the weakest woods there was. One good hit, and it would
break.
Dierdre
charged. She swung her branch, and Caden countered. The thrust was powerful,
and Caden’s arms shuddered beneath the power of the strike. Bark flew from the
female’s staff, showering Caden, with bits falling toward her eyes. She
grunted, blinking away the debris, and holding the shewolf back.
About
The Author:
Born in
Atlanta, the daughter of an Army Soldier during the early stages of the Viet
Nam war, I spent my childhood traveling from state to state, finally ending up
overseas in Germany where I graduated high school six months early.
My writing
career however began as a young Airman in the Air Force, writing monthly
articles for the weekly base paper. The
articles ranged from climatological data to full center fold articles on the
destructive forces of hurricanes. As I
increased in rank, my writing changed to more technological instruction,
including such works as WSR-88D Doppler
Radar Data Interpretation Guide for North Carolina Stations, and Station
Operating Procedures.
But my
early writing wasn’t limited only to the technological side. I’ve written multiple dog training and
behavior articles for canine websites such as Sonora Canine Freestyle, and also
the Ask Blackjack column, a fun training column in the voice of my labrador
retriever, then a young pup.
I’m married to a wonderful man named Doug. We
live in North Carolina with our two dogs.
