Stray is a steamy MM romance featuring a cranky panther shifter, a freshly-made vampire, & lamb-on-a-stick. A grumpy/sunshine, age gap, opposites attract, reluctant-fated-mates pairing that must overcome the odds to win their HEA!
Blurb
Leonas is a cranky panther shifter set in his ways. He handles security for an exclusive brothel and takes the safety of the staff at The Twig and Berries seriously, to the extent of sacrificing his love life for work.
When a young vampire called Jeno shows up with heart eyes and disturbing news, Leonas is taken aback. Who is this curious youth and why is he hitting on Leonas of all people? More importantly, when is he leaving? Because Leonas has no time for romance.
Though Jeno is running from a dark past, he can’t help but to stop in his tracks for Leonas. The grumpy cat shifter might be prickly on the outside, but inside? Well, Leonas is prickly there too. He needs someone like Jeno to escape the lonely trap of his own making.
Can Jeno evade the snare of Hungary’s notorious opium slingers? Will Leonas break the chains of his past? Together, they stand a chance, but suffering alone is all they’ve ever known.

“You didn’t let me finish.” Jeno pouts and steps closer.
“Doesn’t matter. My answer will still be no.” I lean back on my stool and send a pointed glance at the stairs behind him. “Your business here is concluded. You should leave.”
“But—”
The growl that’s been festering rumbles low in my throat.
His pupils dilate as he shuffles backward and holds up his hands. “Fine, fine, I’m going. Yeesh. Has anyone ever told you you’re kind of terrifying?”
“Yes.” I know my presence is menacing. I often use it to my advantage, though I should probably back off this vampire. No doubt I’ll see him again if he’s to be working a route that includes Pest. He may very well have intended to stay at The Twig for the day. We’re a known safe haven for messengers. Ivaz would have told him that.
If Dominus were here, he’d welcome the young whelp in for a meal—many of our residents enjoy feeding vampires—but I prefer he go. Jeno is a distraction I don’t need, and I fancy the look of him more than I care to admit.
“Ivaz thought I’d like you,” he says on his way out.
I narrow my gaze. “Ivaz is often wrong.”
Jeno scampers up the stairs. At the top, he glances over his shoulder and winks. “Not this time, he isn’t. See you around, Leonas.”
The door clicks shut behind him. A flutter of unwanted yearning flares in my chest and tightens my throat. I blow a breath through my nose, willing the sensation away. With any luck, Jeno will discover he’s in over his head before getting into trouble.
Either way, he’s not my problem.
