The Wolf's Bride
by Tricia Schneider
Gareth Sinclair is cursed.
To protect his loved ones, he seeks a life of solitude. His brother's sudden death forces him back to society as heir to the estate and guardian to his young sister. Tragedy follows his every step, however, and hiding his curse proves impossible beneath the unnerving, steely gaze of his sister's newly appointed governess.
There is more to Madeline Hawkins than meets the eye.
Madeline is hunting the creature that destroyed her family. Tracking a werewolf through London Society is no easy task and when one clue leads to another, she poses as a governess to gain access to the house where she suspects the creature is hiding. Once there she meets a young girl in need of love and her soul tortured brother. But, will she find the monster in time to save those she's come to care for? Or worse, yet, will she be able to destroy the creature once she discovers it's identity?
Excerpt:
Madeline’s fingers tightened around the pistol. She approached the figure reclining in a wooden bathtub lined with linens from behind. With his head resting against the rim, he faced the windows making it easy to approach with him unaware of her presence. She measured each footstep so as not to make a sound, all the while keeping the pistol pointed in his direction.
She was only a few steps away when he spoke.
“Do I owe you money?” His deep voice reverberated through her bones. Madeline stopped moving. Her hand clenched around the pistol, continuing to aim it at the back of his head.
“No.”
“Then why are you here?”
He didn’t move a muscle. He made no attempt to stand. He remained exactly as she’d found him when she entered the room, reclining in the bathtub.
She tilted her head wondering how he had sensed her.
“I have it on good authority that a woman was killed here last night and you are the man responsible.”
His head lifted.
“How did she die?”
“She was torn to pieces. They say she was ravaged by a wild animal.”
He turned his head to the side as if to see her better, but she stood directly behind him. Madeline suspected he might see her silhouette, but he couldn’t view her completely. Even if he could, he’d have difficulty identifying her with the hood of her cloak pulled low over her face.
“Why would you think I am responsible if they’re saying it was an animal attack?”
“Because I know what you are.”
He inhaled softly. She might have missed the reaction, but beside the crackling of the fire within the hearth nearby, there was nothing but silence in the room.
“And what am I?”
“The stable boy found bloody clothes buried near the edge of the forest. He identified those clothes as belonging to you. They were ripped apart. Shredded.”
The man considered this for a moment. “And how does that condemn me?”
“Because I’ve been searching for you.” Madeline whispered the words, but she knew he heard her when his back stiffened against the rim of the bathtub. “I recognize the signs of a werewolf.”
