Spike and Drusilla raced around the house in celebration as their demon finally claimed her mate. When things fell silent in the bedroom, the two cats had just finished off the very last of the chocolates Spike had found in the kitchen cabinets.

Excellent timing, Drusilla said as she led the way down the hall toward the bedroom.

Quite excellent, Spike agreed.

When they reached the bedroom door, the two cats stretched to their full height, set their paws just under the ceiling on either side of the bedroom door and raked their claws downward, scorching the walls in perfect lines and marking their territory.

Dropping back onto four feet, they examined their claw marks.

Perfect, Spike proclaimed.

Our best markings yet, Drusilla agreed.

Tomorrow, we’ll mark the perimeter of the cabin, Spike said.

We should also mark their cars.

Definitely.

Satisfied with their plans to ensure their demon and her shifter mate remained safe and well protected in their territory, Spike and Drusilla sauntered into the bedroom and leapt onto the bed, shrinking into their smaller, house cat forms as they curled up together at the base of the bed and fell into a rumbling, purr-filled sleep.

Join the matchmaking cats of the goddesses as they match the witches of Tempest’s coven in Hocus Purrcus.

Author’s Note

Thank you for reading Her Dark Obsession. This story was a labor of love as it allowed me to bring together characters from two of my most popular series, Shenanigans and A Pawsitively Purrfect Match.

The Shenanigans series is set in Jamesville, where a couple bars and a hotel serve as neutral ground for paranormals of all kinds. Shenanigans is the perfect place for finding your mate or just grabbing a drink after a long and exhausting day. Jump into the series with Phoenix and Travis in Shifter Shenanigans.

A Pawsitively Purrfect Match features the matchmaking cats of the goddesses as they work to match humans with their purrfect cat companions and mates. Join Bygul and his friends at the Bed & Breakfast in Hell as they work overtime to provide happily ever afters for Starlight and her daughter, Peggy Sue, in Satan’s Kitty.

Her Gingerbread Daddy

A Standalone Romantic Novelette

Linzi Basset

BDSM Romance

Dear Reader,

I love writing these short, fun, and hot little stories for the Eat Your Heart Out Anthology projects. Apart from it being for a good cause, it’s always so much fun to let my imagination run away with these short stories… and believe me, with this one, there’s not only a whimsical fantasy tale but a hot Daddy… A Gingerbread Cookie Daddy!

Blurb:

If there was one thing Clarissa Stone hated more than baking, it was gingerbread cookies. Yikes! Who can even eat that stuff? So, how she allowed her sister to rope her into the Christmas cheer of the remote town in the Rocky Mountains remained a mystery. Worse, she found herself assigned to help the local restaurateur, Rick Butler, bake dozens—correction, thousands—of gingerbread cookies!

And that’s not all. The damn man insists that I call him Daddy or suffer the sting of his hand on my butt. Well, that’s just the pits!
