Locke, Stock and Barrel

Faint heart never won fair…mage? What's a werewolf to do when his mate runs away? Chase him, of course

Aspen, a master mage, has loved his foster sister Brie for years, but now that she's been forced to become an acolyte, the only way to ever win her is to find another source of the power their faction needs before the new moon. Seeking information about the were, Aspen walks into Locke's café and finds what could be the solution to everything. He could finally have Brie…but sometimes what you think you want and what you get are two very different things.

Locke is shocked when Aspen walks into his life. He'd always been told that as an omega, he would never have a mate. But the joyous occasion is marred by his banishment from the only life he's ever known, and even worse, Aspen has disappeared. Now, with nothing more to lose, he must track down his wayward mage. But trouble has beaten him there and unless he acts quickly, Aspen could be killed. And that's not even the worst possible outcome…
