The Alpha’s Word. An Alpha/Omega Mpreg. Free In Kindle Unlimited.

By Colbie Dunbar on Tuesday, August 14, 2018

Do you stop running when there’s no way to escape?

Seb, Max and the piglet, Trixie, speed away from their farm, leaving everything behind. But their journey exposes some of the alpha’s secrets, infuriating the omega. Amid chaos, Max convinces Seb to spice up their life with role play and fancy dress.

As the pair bring new life into the world, Trixie is overcome with jealousy. It’s piglet versus parents as they engage in bouts of emotional back and forth.

And is Trixie planning a career move? Could the bright lights of stardom be luring the piglet from her small town existence?

The alpha and omega keep a low profile and make new friends who don’t question their history. But as they both discover, the past is never dead.

This is a 28,000-word, non-shifter, omegaverse novella, and it’s the second book in the Idriador series.

Hi Everyone

Let me start with a little housekeeping.

For some reason, the Look Inside is not working for The Alpha’s Vow. I’ve gone back and forth on this with Amazon and they are dealing with it, but need more time to sort it out.

My big achievement his week was making an icon for myself! Don’t laugh. This is huge–for me!

If you follow me on FB or receive my NL, you’ll know I’m a tech-know-nothing.

Yes, I created a website, newsletter, social media accounts etc, but not without a lot of stress. Instead of zipping, dashing or driving around the Internet, I blunder.

I used my new wineglass icon to sign up for the Blog Hop this week, and I thought I had it centered, but it’s not! Most people would probably shrug (no, let’s face it, most people would not have goofed like this) and say, “I’ll get it sorted for next week.”

But it’s driving me crazy, so I have to write to the very nice lady at Linkz, send her my icon and beg her to center it.

The observant among you may be asking, “How does she know about the woman at Linkz?”

Ummm, that’s a really good question… one that I am not prepared to answer at this time!!!!!

Update: The amazing Maria at Linkz did what I asked. Thank you, Maria (again).

New Book

I should have had this finished by now. My aim is to publish every two weeks, but I’ve been project managing some house repairs. That means jumping up and down about 100 times a day sorting out problems, so it’s been hard to concentrate.

I’ll make a huge push this weekend to get it done.

I said on FB or in a NL that I had chosen Trixie’s pic for the next book–and I had. But then I started searching again ‘cos that’s what I do! I have a folder on my laptop titled ‘Pig Pics’. Once The Alpha’s Word has been published, I have to make a decision.

That reminds me, when I told the designer what I wanted on the cover of The Alpha’s Vow, I sent her the ‘goggles’ pic. I really wanted the piglet on the cover, but we weren’t sure if it would work. I said, “If it doesn’t look good, the pig gets the chop.”

Oops!

Sorry, Trixie. Glad it worked out!

Snippet from The Alpha’s Word

***

The alpha shrugged as he prepared dinner and cut up apple and carrot for Trixie. He sipped a glass of red wine while he cooked and handed his mate sparkling water with a splash of apple juice. “That’d be his mate, Jasper. My brother’s always joking about the fancy dress parties they attend. I can’t see the appeal myself. Why do they want to dress up? What’s the point?”
“I can see how some people would be into it.”
From the corner of his eye, Seb caught his mate grinning at him. “Am I amusing you? Am I such an old fuddy-duddy?”
“The answer to the first question is yes, and as to the second, no more than usual.” Max returned to the walk-in closet.
“You can take a pair of shoes if you want. Jasper owns plenty of sneakers. I’m sure he won’t notice. ”

What happens when you’re thrown together and there’s no escape?

Seb is a wealthy alpha who pursued his passion for working the land despite his family’s objections. Covered in tattoos, he favors short-term relationships over anything permanent.

But when Max, a Shakespeare-quoting backpacker, meets Seb in less than desirable circumstances, a misunderstanding has the omega accepting an offer that sends him hurtling in a new direction.

And then there’s Trixie, a tiny, pink piglet who has the run of Seb’s home and has captured his heart. She adores apples, riding on the alpha’s motorbike and plenty of snuggles. And it’s love at first sight when she comes face to face with Max.

Set against the backdrop of an unspoiled landscape and a lake that’s both serene and treacherous, Seb and Max’s relationship blossoms until a storm disrupts not only the surroundings, but also their future.

This is a 28,000-word, non-shifter, omegaverse novella, and it’s the first book in the Idriador series.

Here’s another question and answer from an author interview I did a month or so ago.

Q: What’s your writing schedule like?

A: I’m not a fast writer, and I’m the synonym queen! I’ll spend ages trying not to repeat something. Even when I know a particular English word doesn’t have many synonyms, I’ll check it anyway in case a new one has been created since I last checked!!!!

When I start a writing session, I always go back over what I did the previous day, and I’ll keep adding to it until I’m satisfied it’s a fully-rounded scene.

The Alpha’s Vow is complete but it’s not yet live. I’ll post a link here on my site and on FB when it’s been published.

Here’s another short excerpt from the book.

***

Though Max had left home a few years ago, his father had kept tabs on him. No matter what job he was working at or where he was living, he sensed he was being watched and though he hadn’t expected it, it didn’t surprise him. That’s how he operates. He can’t bear to lose something that belongs to him.
But being reminded of his family had Max rubbing the back of his neck and grinding his teeth. Forget them. Time for a shower.

Here’s The Alpha’s Vow cover.

This week’s snippet is from the beginning of Chapter 2. And just a reminder, I haven’t edited it or done a final read-through.

***

This place is amazing. Max stared at the lake through an open window. If my father could see me now. The thought made the omega poke his head outside. I hope he hasn’t got someone spying on me. But apart from animal noises and the lazy splashes of water hitting the shore, there was nothing out of the ordinary.

***

Here’s something I wrote a while ago when I was asked the following question.

Q: Are you a plotter or fly by the seat of your pants kind of writer?

A: Definitely a fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants writer. It’s interesting because in everything else I do, I’m so organized. But I can’t plan out a story. I just end up staring at the screen.

For example, when I started The Omega’s Triumph, I knew two things: 1) they would arrive in The Old Country; and 2) they would leave. That’s the beginning and end of the book. I had no clue as to what would happen in between.

As I write, I have ‘Ah-ha’ moments e.g. “Oh, my God, I can do that!”.

When I wrote the second last scene in ‘Triumph’ with Jake in the woods, the rest of the book was done. I’d done a grammar check and read through the completed chapters using text-to-speech (which I loathe).

I’d been avoiding that scene as I had no clue how he was getting from A to B. I started writing, then had to run an errand and while I was gone, I kept thinking, “That doesn’t work.” But when I got back and read what I’d done, it was fine. I added a few sentences and it was finished.

I’ve love to follow an outline as my way of writing can be stressful when I have to get myself out of a plot hole, but I’ve accepted it’s not going to happen.

Hi Everyone

We’re hoping the #ohmympreg bloghop will become a weekly event.

The other participating authors are listed at the bottom of this post (you should be able to see their pretty icons***), so when you’ve read what I have to say, pop on over to their websites and enjoy the excerpts from their books and behind-the-scene tidbits from the intriguing world of mpreg writing.

Here’s a snippet from my next novella, The Alpha’s Vow, which is the first story in the new series the Idriador Chronicles. The book centers around Sebastian (Seb) and Max and a very special little girl by the name of Trixie.

***

My head!
Sebastian groaned and rubbed a palm over his pounding forehead. His shoulders ached and when he wriggled trying to get more comfortable, his back pressed against something hard. I’m never drinking again.
Images of the previous night flickered in and out of his thoughts like an old black and white movie reel.

And here’s a sneak peek at the new cover.
