Introduction
Melissa Moore just finished eight grueling years of study and writing but she has finally made it to the last step of achieving her lifelong dream of being a professor of Renaissance Literature at Berkley. Five days before presenting her dissertation, Melissa decides to join her roommates for a night of fun. While the party scene is not really Melissa's thing, with a little liquid courage, she decides to let loose for a night and has her first ever one-night stand. While determined to never think of her one night of recklessness or the sex god who gave her the first (and 4th) orgasm she ever had without her BYOB, fate seems to have other plans… Jeremy Janes has been burned by love. Recently cheated on by his fiancee, he takes a new job as the head of the department of Medieval\Renaissance Literature at Berkley. New to California, after living his whole life in New York, he decides to have a night on the town before he begins his new job. Not looking for a relationship, he is open to a one-night stand. Jeremy has had a lot of sex in his 36 years, A LOT. But nothing has ever thrown him off like his one night with Melissa. They are aware that an unexpected pregnancy, an unprofessional (and perhaps unethical) dilemma could throw both of their futures away. Can a "professional" arrangement lead to love?

x2c4. I think I may be too old fashioned for the intro to this story. I find the idea of one night stands working out to be beyond my level of acceptance. Howver, that doesn’t mean the story is not worth reading

“Angel, you have a filthy fucking mouth”, I whispered low into her ear.
“Luciano…” Finally, an expression on her face. A real one she wasn’t hiding from me. It wasn’t fear though. It was lust. My girl likes this.

But what happens when she finds herself in the heart of the maze, not just alive, but protected by the very beasts sent to kill her? It is supposed to be a game—a game of life and death. But what started with the maze trials ended in a prize that is more than Zirah bargained for. She never thought the prize would be for her to choose between the three Lycan Kings fighting for their father’s throne.
Upon meeting the three Lycan kings, Zirah learns that the Kings are no prince charmings.

The Kings want nothing to do with her or each other and plan to get rid of her.
What they don't expect is for Zirah to fight back, only she plays with something far more dangerous than weapons. She’ll play with their hearts.

“You think I’d share my mate? Just stand by and watch while you fuck another woman and have her kids?”
“She’d just be a Breeder, you would be the Luna. Once she’s pregnant, I wouldn’t touch her again.” my mate Leon’s jaw tightened.
I laughed, a bitter, broken sound.
“You’re unbelievable. I’d rather accept your rejection than live like that.”
As a girl without a wolf, I left my mate and my pack behind.
Among humans, I survived by becoming a master of the temporary: drifting job to job… until I became the best bartender in a dusty Texas town.
