My new *adult* romantic fantasy game is live on @storyloom! 🐺♥️ Two chapters are up to play! It’s called BECOMING THE ALPHA’S MATE. Nothing interesting ever happens in Havenmill . . . or does it? The night you're approached by a gorgeous stranger with an odd claim, everything changes. 🔗 in bio! … #choicesstoriesyouplay #choices #narrativestorytelling #romancebooks #romanticstory #shifter #fantasystory #romantasy #storyloom #interactivefiction #interactivefictiongame #interactivefictionwriter #gamewriter #narrartivedesigner https://www.instagram.com/p/CpTlxRWMrxk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
