The Game Warden's Mate
by A. M. Griffin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Sci-Fi Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
The
Hunt. As the new Game Warden, Xrez Ym’ihla brings patrons from across the
galaxy to track prey in a game built to enslave the weak and mate the strong.
The business is a long running family legacy and Xrez is determined to succeed
as his father had before him. He hadn’t meant to let one human occupy his
thoughts, mind, and body.
His
lies may come back to haunt him, but if he reveals the truth, he’ll ruin his
chance to capture the heart of the one he wants.
The
Prey. Esme Valdez had her entire life planned from an early age. As a chemist,
her life was average and mundane, just the way she liked it. Until the
impossible happened. Never did she imagine being abducted by aliens and forced
to participate in a survival of the fittest game called The Hunt. If she
survives and makes it to the end, she’ll be freed. If not, she’ll be forced to
mate the one who captures her.
Esme
is determined to win at all costs, even if it means putting her trust in a sexy
alien who taunts her in the most delectable way.
Their love was built on betrayal. Can she trust him with her
heart and life?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT THREE:
“You’re
in The Hunt. There are three ways to leave the arena. You can get yourself
killed, captured by a hunter or win.” He briefly glanced their way. “From what
I’ve observed so far you’ll be captured and processed before the day is over.”
“Hunt?”
the male asked. His eyes were opened wide. Panic and fear splashed across his
face.
The
female gasped and clutched the male tighter, pressing her body against his
back. “Arena?”
Xrez
stared at them, pitying them for the circumstances that they’d found themselves
in. It wasn’t their fault that they were useless. They were a product of their
species. And it wasn’t their fault they were on Turolois. His father was to
blame for that.
“My
advice? Summon an escape pod. Two hunters followed me and should be closing in
on our position. If you leave now, you’ll have a chance to put distance between
you and them. They are pack hunters and skilled at what they do. Leaving here
on foot is no longer an option as they’ll pick up your scent and corral you
into a trap.”
The
male scrunched his face, and his lips thinned. “You sound bonkers, man. If you
aren’t going to help, get out of here.” Spittle dropped from his lips. “What’s
with the bad costume anyway? Are you some messed up cosplayer?”
Xrez
didn’t have the energy to indulge these two any longer. No matter what he said,
it wouldn’t register in their tiny brains. He’d given them sound advice, and
they hadn’t made a move to save themselves.
He
took one last glance at the pair of weaklings. If a hunter didn’t capture them
soon, their stupidity would get them killed. Yes, it was best that they were
taken right away so he could focus on helping the other humans to Level Two.
“I’m
so scared of that thing, Spencer,” the woman cried. “It’s so ugly. It looks
like a monster.”
“Don’t
worry, Mary Ann. This is just a crazy scheme to frighten us. I hate weirdos
like him,” the male said in hushed tones. “Ignore him. Maybe if we do, he’ll go
away and leave us alone.”
Monster?
Ugly?
Is
that how humans viewed him? The females of his species found him attractive,
virile and strong.
Xrez
shrugged. The female didn’t know what a good mate was considering what she’d
been used to on Earth. Xrez left the opposite way he’d come, following the
scent of one female in particular. He hadn’t gotten two clicks away before he’d
heard the screams. It seemed the Cyrox’s efforts had paid off. They’d just
acquired a male and female without having to do very much work at all.
