“She's a she-wolf. Her nature demands she's dominated, even if she tries to fight it. She'll listen to an amount of force – positive force, not negative force. But leave the run wide open with no boundaries and she won't listen to you at all. All she'll listen to is the call of freedom, even if it leads her straight into a trap. Stop thinking like a human. She's a wolf.”
Dianna Hardy, Blood Shadow

“Finn pulled away from her mouth to look at Navi, her full lips swollen and a dusky flush on her cheeks. “Do or die time, babe,” he murmured against her mouth. “You let this beast off the leash and I’m not going to stop.”

Her mouth curled into a sensual smile, and her hazel eyes glowed with the challenge. “Do your worst, Finn Kelly.”
Katherine McIntyre, Forged Decisions

Angela Panayotopulos
“He was not her sole companion. She had her demons, too.

You can't run from them, as Lexi discovered. Changing cities doesn't help either; you carry them along inside you. You just wake up one day, fed up, and decide to snuggle with them instead. You invite them along as you go about your day, balancing them on your shoulder as you would a toddler, but with very strict conditions: You will not set fire to my hair. You will not take candy from strangers. You will not tie me up in chains while I sleep. You will behave.

And Lexi's demons, allowed to come close, sat on her shoulder. They waved to the angels perched on her other shoulder and struck up a conversation with Lexi.

'What's that noise?' her demons asked, sidling close to her ear.

'Oh, that?' Lexi massaged her temples. 'It's the air whistling through the hole in my heart.'

'You're afraid,' they taunted.

'I am,' she admitted. 'Afraid of the sky falling. Afraid of the tight-rope snapping. Afraid I can't dance well enough on the edge. Afraid there are no hands to steady my body. Afraid of hands that wish to cage my heart.'

'Coward,' the demons goaded.”
Angela Panayotopulos, The Wake Up

Alex Ankarr
“You can't be the rapist and the prince both, he thinks.”

Paula Brackston
“Merlin stepped forward until he was standing not more than an arm's length from Megan. He gestured toward the wolf.
"Please, do not be afraid. He is harmless as any hunting dog. Only those who would threaten me need fear of him."
The animal got up and loped to its master's side, where it nuzzled his hand. Megan watched in wonder.
"Can I... can I touch him?" she asked. When Merlin nodded she moved cautiously toward the animal, then reached out a trembling hand. The wolf sniffed her palm, then sneezed as the garlic burned his nostrils. Megan laughed, and looked up to see Merlin laughing silently, too, his face animated and softened by his smile. She reached forward once more and touched the wolf's dense coat. "Oh," she said, "it is softer than a lamb's wool! Who would have believed such a thing?"
The wolf seemed to enjoy the attention and was happy to let her make a fuss of him. Megan found herself so fascinated by the creature she all but forgot Merlin until he spoke again.
"It is often true that being close to the object of our fears is not as terrifying as we had supposed it to be. It is the threat of terror that controls a man more than the terror itself.”
Paula Brackston, Lamp Black, Wolf Grey

Emma Richler
“Zachariah's eyes were described as being of the deepest blue. Yet were a person to shine a light at him tonight, straight into his eyes, he would perceive them to be coloured amber, almost gold. He would perceive a wolfish glow.”
Emma Richler, Be My Wolff

Ana Claudia Antunes
“Frozen was her heart after he had decided to leave her to live in Venice.

"I will have my own Carnival here then", she said. So she put on her white boots and her coat filled with jewelry, danced on the snow all alone. A wolf saw her magnificent beauty.

He jumped right in front of her. It was not a wolf after all but a gentleman wearing fur. He took her hand and they both slid in a split second. It was too enchanting a dream.

All of a sudden the whole scene became blurry. The blonde woke up with the deep sensation that it all looked too real not to be true!”
Ana Claudia Antunes, Pierrot & Columbine

Katherine McIntyre
“Finn let out a low whistle. “You’re mated to one of the kitty cats? I would’ve sworn you’d find some submissive little thing or a mean motherfucker of a wolf. Never in a million years could I see you with a slick-talking feline like him.”
Katherine McIntyre, Forged Alliances

“Sierra clenched her jaw for a moment before responding. “We’re grabbing food. That in no way constitutes a date. Invite whoever you want to join, see if I give a damn.”

Katherine McIntyre
“Sierra’s eyes flashed amber, the familiar color of her wolf, one his own had responded to all these years. “Don’t discredit yourself, Kelly,” she said, cuffing his shoulder. “No one happens to call me on my shit like you do. However, I also know I can’t keep you here. I’ve been so wrapped up in Dax and the changes to the pack I overlooked one of the most important members.”
Katherine McIntyre, Forged Decisions
