Excerpt:
The darkness moved, and a huge creature came into the torchlight. It walked upright like a man, but with a strange gait on its long clawed feet. Dark brown fur sheathed a body covered in bulging muscles. With broad, rounded shoulders, twice as wide as the stoutest man in the village, the Beast was easily two feet taller than Anja. A low, flat head with an elongated snout reminded her of a wolf, and those yellow eyes shone, baleful and hungry, but with a wicked cunning.
"Please," Anja whispered. "Don't hurt me."
"Don't hurt you?" A low chuckle came from deep within its throat. "You are mine to do with as I wish." That long mouth split open, and white fangs glistened in the firelight.
"I'll do whatever you want," Anja said. "Just please let me go... after."
The Beast stalked around her in a wide circle, moving slowly, and it wasn't until its silhouette blocked the cave entrance that Anja realized she was trapped. The Beast's laugh was low and harsh, like a tomb's heavy stone lid sliding shut. "She wants to go after," he growled. "And if I want you to stay?"
Anja's heart pounded in her chest, fear threatening to overwhelm her. She imagined herself bolting past him like a frightened hare, scrambling down the snow-covered slope, naked and afraid, while the powerful creature loped easily behind. Escape was impossible, so Anja surrendered. "Then I will stay," she said, trying to steady her trembling voice. "Just tell me what you want from me."
That lupine grin widened, and the Beast came forward, graceful and dangerous. His yellow eyes leered down at her, full of wild lust, he licked his chops with a long, pink tongue. "What I want is what you will give me," he said. "An heir."
