Showing results for "The Beast" in Science Fiction

A human female. A ruthless alien. A dangerous beast she awakens inside of him. His name is Ar'Van. He is the best hunter money can buy. Tall, dangerous, non-human - and the last of his kind. When a new assignment brings him to Earth, he doesn't expect much resistance. The women he is supposed to deliver to the warlord of the Qua'Hathri are easy targets. He could outwit the earth men that protect them, with his eyes closed. But every plan can go wrong. Not because he is careless. He just hadn't expected his worst enemy and best accomplice to feel drawn to one of them.

Warlord Tane of Atlan is a warrior, not a prince. So why is he wearing these ridiculous white pants and gold-trimmed jacket? And gods help him, why are there hundreds of females in glittering gowns, circling like vultures, expecting him to dance? The human producers of the Bachelor Beast television show thought this would be a good idea; dress up an unmated Warlord like a fairytale prince, invite hundreds of eligible human women to a “Cinderella Ball,” turn on their cameras, and record everything. And then he sees her. His mate. The only female who can tame his beast.

Beast. Creature. Monster. Dangerous. All of these things have been said about Gren. Willa doesn't believe it, though. She knows that monsters can sometimes come in appealing packages. She knows that for all of his snarls and fearsome appearance, he'd never hurt her. And she knows she has to get Gren away from the Icehome camp, because no one will ever see him as a person, not when he attacks all who come close. Not when he's tied and treated like an animal.

Warlord Wulf thought nothing could be worse than being tortured and contaminated by the Hive. That was before he’s ordered to transport to Earth and represent the Colony in an unfamiliar horror...a human reality show. The Bachelor Beast is the hottest new program on Earth, but being set up with two dozen clingy females is not his idea of a good time. When his Beast refuses to show the slightest interest in any of the show’s potential mates, he knows he must choose one or die due to his raging mating fever.

A curvy queen. A warrior on his knees. A mission that might break them both. Kaitlyn Prior is finished playing nice. Divorced, restless, and craving something darker than vanilla, the curvy, mature Kindred Ambassador wants control in the bedroom—power, intensity, a man strong enough to kneel...

Just when I think I’m getting my life under control, my alien husband kidnaps me—and manages to get amnesia. I’ve mostly come to grips with my new reality. Earth is a memory, I’m making a name for myself, and I can usually ignore the reason I’m here… my horrible alien warlord husband. But the Beast doesn’t want to be ignored. Nope. He wants me, and unlike other Suevans, he doesn't like to take no for an answer… so he kidnaps me, determined to win me over. Good luck with that, buddy.

I’ve been abducted. Twice. My situation with this new group of aliens has gone from bad to worse. I was with a bunch of elf-like aliens who had unparalleled technology, but now I’m in the midst of a group of primitive gargoyle aliens running around in loincloths. Which doesn’t hide much, let me tell you. There’s one gargoyle in particular who watches my every move, but what’s under his loincloth scares me more than his beastly appearance. To be sure we’re worthy to breed with, the savages have us each perform a rite of passage. And by that I mean a test of survival.

I am a warlord. A beast. An assassin for the Intelligence Core. Even so, I’ve been sent to Earth for a simple mission: Find a mate. I hold no hope. Who would want me? I’m scarred...inside and out. But one look at the human beauty and there is no question: She’s mine. When she is taken from me, I will use all my training to save her from my enemies.

Be the latest bachelor beast on an Earth reality television show to find his perfect mate or face certain death in an Atlan prison. Braun’s not sure which is worse...until a female enters his hotel suite with towels and cleaning supplies. She isn’t part of the television show. She isn’t available. She isn’t interested in mating with an alien. She isn’t his. Try telling that to his beast, because one look at the maid and Braun knows he will do anything...anything, to claim her.

Something is definitely off about this mission. Sending a peace officer like me out into the middle of nowhere in a rusted spaceship… Well, let’s just say it’s not standard protocol. Somehow, Valmore, my new bodyguard, soothes my nerves. While he looks like a devil, with his red skin, sharp horns, and sultry eyes, I soon learn there’s much more to him than his beastly appearance.

Once, I was a golden prince, full of promise. Then the curse came for my parents. I did everything I could to save them. I failed. Now, I am a monster, scarred and dangerous. I remain in the shadows, ruling my kingdom from afar, feared by everyone I fight to protect.

Warlord Iven has one foot in the grave, days away from a ceremonial execution to save his honor—and the galaxy—from his untamed beast. But when a desperate plea lands a mission in his lap, everything changes. A royal child is in hiding. Assassins are on Earth. And his last chance at redemption lies in a sleepy little town in Washington … in the form of a fiercely protective, infuriatingly sexy fourth-grade teacher named Krystal.

He wants me. And this male is used to getting whatever he demands. The only problem is I don't want to be bothered. Especially not hot and bothered. But he's not getting the hint. He thinks I'm his and that he needs to claim me. If I allow myself to ask what that means it'll probably add a couple of letters to my OCD. My disorder should deter him, like it has most people. I just won't stick around long enough to find out. I've been given my freedom and I have no intention of giving it away to this alien. No matter how handsome, strong, and kind he is.

As an unauthorized third child with parents who were more interested in their various criminal enterprises than they were in her, Michelle Carter is used to feeling unloved, but it still hurts when she is brought to another world as a bride for two men who turn out not to even want one. After Roan and Dane lost the woman they loved, they swore there would never be anyone else, and when their closest friend purchases a human, they reject the match. Though they are cursed to live as outcasts who shift into beasts, they are not heartless, so they offer Michelle a place in their home.

He's a thief. And what did he steal? Yours truly. I get it that women are a hot commodity on this planet, but why me? It's not like there weren't others to choose from. Besides, I've just found my sister and I have no desire to be away from her. But this alien doesn't take no for an answer - in English or in his language. So now I'm stuck in a new village with a bunch of Boraq who would rather see me dead than mated to their Masse. However, the more time I spend with the infuriating male, the harder it is to plan my escape. If only I could find a way to stay alive and be his.

My marriage is in trouble. Jaxar and I didn't exactly have a regular romance since he abducted me and then sent me on a journey that could've resulted in my death. But that's neither here nor there. And what doesn't kill you, makes you bitter. I mean, stronger.
