I'm back from my super- awesome holidays. *grin* While I was away two of my stories in two different anthos got published. Today, I'm going to share a snippet from one of them, Bad Alpha Anthology. Though I didn't write much while I was away, this story has inspired what I hope will be a few more stories. Now, I just need to get writing!
XoXo, Elyzabeth

Daryl downed the clear liquid in his shot-glass in a single gulp. He smacked his lips and swept the droplets of sweat gathering on his brow with the back of his hand before pouring himself another tequila shot. He preferred to drink directly from the bottle, but Andy had forbidden him to do so. He claimed that it gave his rundown club a bad image. Daryl snorted. How could taking swigs from a bottle be worse than the roaches, the holes in the wall, the limp chairs? He shook his head and poured himself some more. Fuck. He hated this place. The darkness.

Bad
Alpha: A Multi-Author Anthology
Bad Alpha features a select collection of stories with
shifters so ruthless they will stop at nothing to protect their pack. These
aren't sugar-and-spice heroes. Our alphas are feared, inked, and don’t ask
questions first. They take what they want, never give in to their enemies, and
think love is for the weak—until they meet their mate. Are you ready to learn
how to tame a savage heart?
Dark Heart by Elyzabeth M. VaLey
The
world is changing. Vampires are coming out and they’re not remotely similar to
the sensual Hollywood portrait made of them. Little by little, Shifters are
being unmasked and integration is waning. Panic is spreading. The government is
losing control. Private agencies, such as SOA struggle to find a solution, but
as the darkness grows, can one even exist?
Ten
years ago, Daryl Jones lost his pack to a group of demon vampires. Since then,
he not only lost his will to battle for good, his life has become a spiral of
drinking, fighting and fucking anything in sight. In his opinion, a pretty
perfect existence. Until, he meets the new SOA representative sent to convince
him to go back to the lab. With mile long legs, a tight little ass and a smile
to kill for, when she offers him a bargain, how can he possibly refuse?
Silvia
Adams, has one mission: convince Daryl Jones to work for SOA again. The agency
needs him to get back into the lab and help develop a serum to neutralize the
growing number of vampires. She knew it wouldn’t be easy task, but with her job
on the line, she’ll do anything it takes, including, bargaining with the
shifter and surrendering to her deepest desires. Only problem is, she might
have bartered for more than she can handle.
