Lost Little Cat

Arian Wulf

Summary

Nellie can't help feeling lost and alone. With her fluffy Cat ears and unusual Cat Tail that can't be hidden, she has always stood out. Going to college on her own is exciting, but also so different because she doesn't know why she's there. Her peers are kind to her, but they treat her as one would a small animal and even though she's failing most of her classes, no one is calling her out on it.

In her search for somewhere to belong, she escapes the safety of the dorm rooms and explores the city, climbing skyscrapers and gets in trouble when she's caught where she's not supposed to be. The Alpha Werewolf who captures her is a dangerous man, bigger, stronger, and obviously more powerful than she is. That should be enough to warn her away, but she is inexplicably drawn to him…

She has no idea what she’s getting herself into when she falls for him.

~~~~~ Excerpt ~~~~~

A few of the men let out a stream of curses. "Those aren't prosthetics," someone says finally.

"Sure they are. They've got to be," the man in front of her reaches forward to grab her ear and yank at it.

She hisses and slashes at the man with her claws and regrets it instantly as he doesn't pull away in time and she feels the flesh on his arm tear as her sharp claws dig into skin. He swears and slaps her across the face hard enough for her ears to ring.

"Bitch fucking scratched me!" he says, raising his hand to strike her again when the bigger man, the one who seems to be in charge, stills him with just a look.

"If you do that again, you will find yourself missing a hand," he says.

She's released so quickly that she crumbles right back onto the dirty floor, cement dust getting in her nose.

"I only ask that you tell me the truth, kitten," the man says, squatting down and capturing her chin between his forefinger and thumb, tipping her head up to look him in the eye. "What's your name?"

Hogg

Samuel R. Delany

The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.
