Jules Scarlet is running for his life after his father discovers he's been impregnated by a werewolf. Now, Jules must die to redeem himself. But before his father can shoot him, Remy returns. His wolf is large and powerful, and the shifter has come to claim his mate once and for all.
Though Jules knows nothing about the alpha other than the amazing night they spent together, he feels a deep attraction to him. He wants to be close to him, and he also wants to know how it is that a human male can become pregnant at all. When he discovers he is mated to Remy, he doesn't know what to think. One moment he's happy, but in the next he's kidnapped by angry werewolves who don't want their alpha mated to a human. Their plan is to quietly kill him before Remy can return from a run, and Jules doesn't know how much more he can take.

‘Not-So-Lone Wolf’ is a cute male pregnancy story with a touch of angst, some evil characters after the father-to-be, and a strong, proud alpha who swoops in to protect his pregnant mate. Unlikely though it may seem, Remy gets Jules pregnant before they really even know each other. Once the pregnancy almost leads to Jules being killed by his own father, Remy comes to his rescue and they begin to find out more about each other.
Jules is a human with a heart, since he – different from most of the humans in his village – feels for the majestic wolf he finds trapped in the forest. He is also drawn to the gorgeous male with eyes the same golden color as the wolf. Once he figures out Remy got him pregnant and that he is no longer safe with humans, and neither will his child be once he or she is born, Jules settles in his new home fairly quickly. He has a lot of questions, but he is practical enough to understand his future lies with Remy – and his pack.
Remy may be strong and he understands that Jules is his mate, but he will not force him into staying with the wolves. He is very considerate, and makes sure Jules is well taken care of. Although Remy prefers to spend time as a wolf, he adapts to Jules’s needs and stays with him a lot of the time. I am hoping to see more of Remy in the sequel – I’d love to get to know him better.
If you like mpreg books with shifters who find themselves drawn to humans, if two men who come from different worlds sound like an interesting match, and if you’re looking for an entertaining read that has some hot shifter-on-man loving, then you will probably enjoy this novella.

I was very pleasantly surprised by this first book in the new series 'Not-So-Lone-Wolf' by Marcy Jacks. I haven't quite figured out whether it's an alternate reality, or a historical time frame, as they reference villages, but also cities, and humans know about werewolves.
Remy is the alpha of the forest, a huge black and silver wolf the size of a black bear in his animal form. Jules is a human who just happens to be his mate. One night together, and months later Jules's dad figures out he's pregnant with the alpha's child and attempts to hunt him down and kill him. His own son! Luckily, Remy gets there before that can happen and he takes Jukes back to his pack.
Jules is a little confused, and surprised, to discover that some members of the pack live in cabins, wear clothes, stay in human form. All of his life he's been told they are monsters, animals, who can look human if they choose, but they're just beasts.
After a little drama, Jules and Remy figure out how to communicate and realize they love each other, and Jules is staying. I liked the secondary characters, Tybalt second-in-command to Remy, and his human mate, Scott.
I'm hoping these books continue to be this good, as I really enjoyed this. I can definitely recommend it as a fun, sexy, sweet, romance. Thanks, Marcy!
Lo llamaría mas una historia corta que un libro. Esta entretenido pero al ser tan corto, no profundiza bien en la historia. Igualmente pasas un tiempo entretenido.
2.0 stars. Bleh. Bored. No feeling with in the short story that it was. Characters had no connection. Ans they were individually borinf as well. Not very engaging this short read. Everything was rushed. And the so called bad guy/woman appeared out of no where for a small anticlimactic confrontation and disappeared just so. And a big the end.
It's interesting because this history is some different to other histories about shifters, was new for me this history and i hope reading the others books of this serie
