    Chapter 1: Laurel | Werewolf Romance

    Behind every perfectly coiffed realtor smile, there's a story, and for Laurel Atwood, it’s a daily battle to keep her world from crumbling. Laurel navigates the precise, expensive world of her mother's assisted living facility, where every moment is a calculated cost, and every kind lie is an act of mercy. But Laurel's biggest challenge isn't just the math; it's the "monster" she’s trying to sell. The abandoned Ohio River Ironworks – a place of ghosts, wild foxes, and a dark family history – is her golden ticket, yet selling it means paving over her father's memory and destroying the last wild heart of the city. She sees a sanctuary in the ruins, but the developers only see luxury condos.

    Chapter 2: Ford | Werewolf Romance

    The city hums, an incessant, metallic chord that grates on Ford Caldwell’s wolf senses. Displaced from the quiet wilds of the Pennsylvania forests, he’s a ghost haunting the urban jungle, his pack dying from sickness brought upon by fracking, and his desperation a tangible thing. Ford needs a sanctuary, a fortress where his thirty wolves can hide from a world that’s forgotten how to be wild. But finding refuge in a concrete cage means navigating streets that smell of human anxiety and a landscape scarred by industry.

    Chapter 3: The Wrong Doors | Werewolf Romance

    An Alpha out of his element is a dangerous thing. Ford Caldwell arrives in the concrete jungle, accustomed to the wild woods of Pennsylvania, and quickly discovers the city doesn't play by his rules. He’s looking for a building, a sanctuary for his dying pack, but the human world of “Real Estate” offers only suspicion and fear. Every door slams shut, every glance a warning, until he realizes he’s hunting wrong. Determined, Ford recalibrates his primal instincts to track the true 'alpha' of this territory: Laurie Atwood, the realtor behind the Ironworks sign. But when he finally spots her amidst the cold glass and steel of downtown, it’s not the polished professional from the photo that captures him. It’s the tired woman in armor, and the impossible, undeniable scent she carries – a clean, mountain rain that cuts through the city’s grime and straight to his wolf’s core.

    Chapter 4: Laurie | Werewolf Romance

    Laurel Atwood might be leaving her true self in the elevator, but "Laurie" is all business, especially when it comes to the monumental Ironworks listing. This isn't just another prime riverfront property; it's a vital link to her past, a lifeline for her ailing mother, and a deal that feels like selling a piece of her soul. In this cutthroat city of suits and skyscrapers, every transaction comes with a heavy price. Enter Charles "Chip" Sterling, a developer whose charm is as fake as his hard hat, and whose ambition smells like expensive cologne and pure pathology. He wants the Ironworks, not for its history or potential, but to bulldoze it into another soulless luxury development. Laurel despises him, despises what he represents, yet she desperately needs his money to keep her world from crumbling. This impossible choice forces her to don her most impenetrable mask, but even steel can crack under enough pressure.

    Chapter 5: Rain and Silence | Werewolf Romance

    The city's roar is silenced the moment Ford Caldwell steps into Laurel Atwood’s pristine territory, but the true storm is just beginning. Navigating the polished halls of Golden Triangle Realty, his raw alpha instincts clash with the sterile opulence. The fake pleasantries and "soft" humans are nothing but noise, distractions from the singular, intoxicating scent pulling him deeper – a primal call urging him towards the one woman who holds the key to his pack's survival and threatens to unravel his carefully laid plans.

    Chapter 6: The Bag of Rocks | Werewolf Romance

    Laurel Atwood thought she was prepared for anything the cutthroat world of Pittsburgh real estate could throw at her, but nothing could ready her for Ford Caldwell.

A heavy canvas bag filled with raw, unmined gold, straight from his family’s land. Laurel’s professional walls are up, screaming "scam," but the intensity in Ford's amber eyes and his desperate plea for his dying pack starts to crack her carefully constructed facade.

    Chapter 8: The Hunger | Werewolf Romance

    What happens when the wild wolf meets the concrete jungle and his survival instincts clash with modern society? Displaced Alpha Ford Caldwell finds himself starving in the heart of a city that doesn't understand his currency—or his nature. Gold nuggets are useless when you need a burger, and the refined laws of the forest don't apply when your stomach is screaming for sustenance in a grimy alleyway. Ford faces a harrowing choice between starvation and succumbing to the primal urges of the wolf within. As the city lights mock his desperation, he must confront what it truly means to survive when all his traditions and instincts are rendered obsolete. The lines between man and beast blur in a desperate act, leaving him with a shameful fullness and a stark realization: the city is changing him.
