What's more fun than dragging a politician, an ogre, a leprechaun, and a hired killer across the wastelands to retrieve a human passenger? Anything. Anything would be more enjoyable than this - even hunting hungry fiends.Sam is questioning their life choices. Maybe it would just be easier to murder the idiots and leave the bodies in the wastelands.But, growl as Sam might, everyone knows the hunter will do the right thing. And helping the idealistic human sovereign move his family member and closest advisor from Golding to Westhold is the right thing to do.Too bad the raiders, hyena beasts, and giant death worms don't seem to think so....Tension grows, emotions run high, and heads roll...uh, literally...as Sam takes one more step away from their solitary life and toward actually caring about people - or terrifying monsters, whatever.Author's Note:I love reverse harem, but I got sick of reading the same old tropes. In my books you will find atypical characters and varied sexuality. In general, you probably won't find many alpha males or fainting females, and relationships may have a more poly feel.The Not Quite series is a harem reverse harem urban fantasy series of novellas (between 35,000-45,000 words) and contains the following:*adult language, and lots of it*moderate levels of violence gore action*graphic sexual situations*polyamory multiple lovers*LBGTQ and straight themes (the main character is intersex and will have both male and female lovers, and this is a harem, so expect M F, M M, F F, MMMFF etc.)*as usual, my characters all have their own emotional scars. This means the books MAY contain mentions of abuse, unpleasant situations, etc. Please do not read if you are triggered by things like this. This book in particular has several mentions and flashbacks to past abuse.*occasional "cliff-hangers" or lead-ins to the next book may occur, though generally at least one major plot arc shows completion or at the very least, forward progress.*word count does not include teaser chapters or other fluff material at the end.
