The Omega's Christmas Wish: A Spirit of the Christmas Star Novella

(The Omega's Christmas Wish is a short story and part of the multi-author Spirit of the Christmas Star series. Each author was given the same writing prompt of a Christmas Star wish granting spirit so details in each book will be different and therefore can be read in any order as complete standalones.)



Tanner Michaelson is an omega wolf shifter, ranger for the forest service, and part time hunting guide for his pack's paranormal only nature resort. Tanner loves everything about the holiday season but lately, he hasn't felt much like celebrating. Everyone around him seems to be finding their mates except him. As the oldest and only omega without a mate, rumors are starting to fly. Some say Tanner's defective as an omega, and he's been abandoned by the fates. With each year that passes without finding his mate, Tanner starts to believe the words a little more.

Mackinley 'Mack' O'Connell is a grizzly bear warlock hybrid who runs a logging company out of Washington state. The quintessential lumberjack, Mack is almost always in the woods either cutting down trees, magically creating new ones or hiking and hunting. Mack loves the holiday season and spreading joy despite having no one to celebrate with at home. Mack looks forward to the day he'll meet his mate but prays it'll happen sooner rather than later.

When Tanner is reminded of an old Christmas legend about a wish granting spirit he writes a letter to the spirit but throws it away. Tanner thinks nothing will come of it so there's no reason to hope, but is he right?
