Protected By The Werewolf Jules Monroe

"A trade for a trade."Leander Vanslow has a family problem: his vampire siblings covet both his blood and his brain. They're building an army and they want the highly intelligent vampire children Leander can create. But Leander has no interest in spreading hate. He's already distanced himself and his resources from his toxic family, but the pressure from them is building. He needs someone to protect him-and not just anyone will do. He wants a strong, powerful werewolf warrior. In return, Leander has promised the leader of the local pack a cure to an immune disease affecting their children. The fact that the werewolf he chose as protector is young and childish is a minor issue-or so Leander thinks. Takoda Billie has spent the last few years strolling through life and avoiding the responsibilities that come with his blood, so when his father, the leader of their pack, assigns him the job of protecting a vampire, he's angry. No, he's pissed. That is until he locks eyes with a creature who moves like wind and talks like he's a hundred years old. Takoda's caregiving instincts take over, and he finds himself invested in Leander's safety for more reasons than duty. But with children getting sicker and Leander's family hot on their heels, will Takoda manage to step into his role as leader, keep his pack safe, and protect the stiff-backed vampire who's stolen his heart?This is a 84,000 word NON-MPREG, NON-Omegaverse paranormal romance between a very old vampire and his young, fresh werewolf lover. Leander and Takoda's story is a simmering, slow-burn romance featuring two men who are forced to work together even though they're opposites in every way.
