Definitely Charles. He is this big dominant wolf, who is his father's enforcer, but is so sweet and patient towards Anna. *Sigh* I like Charles a lot.
I kinda have a thing for Bran. Especially after reading Cry Wolf. I also love Ben, Charles, Samuel and Adam. Ooh and Warren.
I am an Adam fan. I will say Warren comes a close second mainly for comedic relief. I did start out hating Ben, but he has slowly won me over.
Adam and Charles are my favs, but I also like Bran, Samuel and Stephen. Briggs writes some great leading men! yowsa :)Ben also got on my nerves at first but then he's gotten a lot better.
I am an Adam fan, but Samuel started to warm up to me in the latest book. :)I also like Stephan and missed him in Silverborne.
Warren is great for comic relief though!
I've still to read the Alpha/Omega series
I started feeling for him in Moon Called, but particularly in Blood Bound. I'm so easy! He's sad, and it hurts to see his despair.

Ooh, definitely Adam, followed by Samuel, then Warren and Ben. Bran fascinates me, but I don't know him well enough. Charles, yeah, I like him as well, and he grows on me with each Alpha & Omega book. But basically, it's all about Adam. =)
I only get one?! If I just have to pick its Charles, hands down.After him its Adam, Samuel, Warren and Ben. I think Ben has some layers we've yet to see. (I'm only on the 2nd MT book)
I too was not a big Ben (pardon the pun) fan until we started getting a little of his back story. SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT
Also when he was the only one who actually UNDERSTOOD what Mercy was feeling after she was raped. The fact that he DID understand told me right then that he'd been abused by someone in his past. And now that we are seeing more of his back story, he's starting to really grow on me.
Oh, and since I can not pick just ONE fav male. . . I have to leave it blank. :o)
I love Bran, Samuel & Stefan! I like Adam and his vulnerability in SILVER BORNE really brought him up several notches in my opinion. And I also like Ben & Warren. There is so much more to Ben than meets the eye.
1. Adam cause thats me and his character, is like so what I would dream of, pack = family, jesse = child, rich, and of cause Mercy.2. Ben even from the first book. We needed someone like Zarek from the dark hunter seris. A hard ass but inside hides a gentle core. Plus he was the only one to swear, werewolves don't swear adam said, yeah right.
Plus adam he knew that ben was good straight off were everyone else didn't.
Ben, Adam, Warren, Sam and Charles. I think I would end up with a Ben if I were single...I love accents and I usually go for the sarcastic type.
Ok, I have to admit--I kind of like Warren, simply for his character. The way Briggs wrote him reminds me a good bit of my favourite cousin, George. (Yes, George was gay.) He died from AIDS, but he was the sweetest, gentlest and at the same time one of the strongest people I ever knew.
Ann I loved Warren's character. He never complains about the hand he was dealt and even when Mercy tells Kyle and Kyle stops talking to him he was never mad at her he knew she did it cause she loves him. Sedanur I'm glad someones else loves Ben!!!!! I think he will always be number one in my heart

1.Samuel 2.Bran 3.Ben 4.Charles 5.Warren 6.Stefan 7.Adam
I have a thing for the Cornick boys. Along with Ben and his nifty accent. :) And Warren always makes me laugh (along with Kyle). Gotta love Stefan and his quirky mysteriousness. And Adam has yet to win me completely over since Sam and Bran have taken over already. n_n

Doh! I forgot Charles! I love Charles cause he acts like a tough guy, but I think he's a teddy bear!

True! n_n But that's what makes him so cute! XD Oh! But he was moderately friendly to Sage in Cry Wolf. It's just buried deep down there. :)

Really!?! I never even thought of that. n_n I guess they'd be cute, too! But now, I sort of see Asil and Sage. :D

Yeah I can see them 2 together besides Anna Sage is the only person he is nice 2 and now that he has closure I guess he would be up for grabs

I'll take him!!! *raises hand* since Asil is up for grabs!

Samuel is my man! Ben and Bran close seconds. Asil comes soon after! :P

I'm wondering if now that the witch is dead if Asil will start to recover since he no longer has the bogus mate bond tieing him to his previous mate. Or if its just too late for him to ever get over her death. But I DO think that now that she's dead he won't be so close to going insane.
I think he will start to heal....slowly. He was staying away from his son because of it. It will take him a long time I think but without the bogus bond tugging at him I don't see how he doesn't

Definitely agree. I think that when Mariposa was keeping the bond intact like that - but having Sarai actually dead - was driving the wolf of Asil crazy. ;( And probably the man Asil too.
I hope now, he finally starts to recover. Maybe Sage could help him ;P

And maybe he could help Sage too. Since its hinted at that Sage had a "not good" experience or ten herself.

Awww :( I forgot about that...*sniffs* Poor Sage... man these poor tragic characters...it makes for a good story, but dang are they troubled sometimes.

If you think about it tho--except in "modern" times where Bran has decreed that no one can be changed without consenting to it, most were-wolves HAVE to have some pretty horrific memories. And even with Bran, there are still rogues (anyone remember that little 13 y.o. girl in the Mercy books who's family locked her in the cellar when the full moon came around?) who don't/won't control their wolf and who attack without reason. So, not just Sage, Anna and Ben have "bad memories".
Adam has bad memories from being changed too! He has even made comments about hating what he is. Remember when he was afraid Mercy would hate him for it
My order:
1)Adam
2)Samuel
3)Bran
4)Charles
I haven't really gotten to know Ben that well, since I've only read the first two Mercy books, and the first two Alpha and Omega stories. In general, I like most of the male characters, and Asil really stands out for me among the secondary characters. I'm not a big fan of Marsilia (she's a little weird for me). I like Stefan, but I'm a little wary of him. I like Warren a lot. Darryl is okay, but I don't like how he treats Warren, although I understand his feeling of being threatened in pack dominance.

There might be a tie between Samuel and Bran. I adore them both, but Adam has my heart, first and foremost.
