Dire Wolves: Silence

One could feel it in the air, shimmering, circling, waiting to strike. It was a palpable force, always there, keeping the characters on the edge. And when the enemy struck, although the action scenes didn't pack quite the punch as in the previous books, since they happened on the sidelines, that final leap literal off the cliff truly was chilling. It felt like I was there, and that's how you write action scenes. I'm looking forward to the next three books. I hope there will be the next three books.

I want to read more about Phego which is, according to the end of this book, next I can't wait for that last one, because I'm thinking the final battle will be the battle to end all battles. With as much foreshadowing about the seven only fighting together a few times, when it truly meant the difference between life or death, I bet that final book will feature such a situation. We're talking about the Dires here, and Luc being their de facto Alpha.

I mean, c'mon, it can't be anything else. Oh, please, please, please, make it so. Sep 04, Judy Lewis rated it it was amazing. A Dire Wolves Mission Series: The Devil's Dires Author: We have a new Dire Wolves mission and a hot new hero! Yeah, yeah, I know I say the same thing every time, but only because it's true! I've been a diehard Ellis Leigh fan for several years and eagerly await each new release.

For anyone familiar with Leigh's work, you may be asking yourself: Why does The Devil's Dires sound familiar? Well, there's actually a very good reason. The Dire Wolves were first introduced as minor characters in Leigh's Feral Breed Motorcycle Club Series, so we've known of the existence of this small select group of wolf shifters for quite some time.

While the Feral Breed MC members act as the enforcers or police for Blassius 'Blaze' Zenne, president of the NALB, the Cleaners are an elite strategic group created by Blaze as a cover for the seven-member pack of Dire Wolves, a dangerous breed long thought to be extinct. And folks, these wolf shifters are tougher than tough, badder than bad, meaner than mean and better than the best.

They live hard and fight harder. But after a lonely millennia of existence, none of these wolf shifters have ever found their mates - until now. The Dires are all handsome, sexy wolf-shifters, but unlike other wolves, the Dire Wolves are a breed among themselves, one shrouded in mystery and now almost extinct with only a small group of seven known to still exist. And all seven of their pack make up an elite team of soldiers, trackers and hackers who are by far the biggest, baddest, and toughest of any species known to man or wolf. They are better than the best, called upon when the talent and skill of the Feral Breed's finest fall short to successfully accomplish the mission.

The Dire Wolves submit to no one, but they do work for Blasius 'Blaze' Zenne, President of the North American Lycan Brotherhood which is the ruling power over all shifters in the country. Their breed owes no loyalty to the Feral Breed Brothers but the only man these Dires respect outside their race is Blasius Zenne. They answer only to him when he calls, not because they have to, but because they respect him, choose to bend to his authority and obey his orders.

Their duties fall under the purview of Blaze's Cleaners, a unit used to solve certain problems when unparalleled skill and lethal action are required. As the series progresses, we get to know all seven of the Dire Wolves but each release is a standalone story featuring primarily one member of the team as he embarks on a perilous mission, made even more complicated when he meets his fated mate, the one woman the universe created just for him. Each of these highly principled wolf shifters must face their destinies while their hearts battle between duty to their new found mates, and duty to their mission, as well as to their breed.

So buckle up, my lovelies, it's a wild ride! But, as always, I digress so let's talk about Savage Silence. The story is exciting, imaginative, compelling, fast paced, action packed, suspenseful, sexy, romantic and exceptionally well crafted and edited. The narrative is beautifully written with a third person perspectives from the two protagonists, Dire Wolf loner Sathaus, aka Thaus, and lovely but traumatized Omega shewolf and doctor Ariel.

The dialogue is smart, raw, intense, seductive, well executed and flows effortlessly. I love the premise for this series as well as the fascinating world Leigh has created, but it's the magnificent cast of characters who literally explode from the pages and steal my heart. Leigh takes no prisoners in Savage Silence, and I do mean that quite literally! I'm totally smitten with Thaus and the entire seven member pack comprising The Devil's Dires! Although it's hard to pick favorites with any of Leigh's books, I do believe Savage Silence may be my very favorite to date.

All the stories of The Devil's Dires have been emotionally engaging, but in Savage Silence, Leigh not only tugged on my heartstrings, she ripped my heart right out of my chest. I was immediately drawn into this story by Thaus and Ariel, and quickly became emotionally invested in the lives of these two remarkable characters. There are so many elements that make Leigh's stories great and she skillfully combines them all to craft a riveting paranormal tale filled to the brim with danger, drama, suspense, passion, and romance. Did I like this book?

I loved the world building and the strong, courageous, larger than life characters Leigh created for this series. It's a standalone read but still interconnected with her other Feral Breed characters and series, so it's familiar, comfortable and easy to follow. I was drawn into the story in the first few pages of the book and quickly found myself totally immersed in the lives of the characters. I also loved the cover as well as how well the story was presented, crafted, written, edited and formatted. Leigh is an extraordinarily gifted storyteller and skilled wordsmith - a true master of her trade, always giving readers the perfect combination of danger, action, suspense, humor, romance and sex.

And, of course, leaves us gasping for our next breath and begging for more! Would I recommend it? You bet, and I am but only for adult readers since it does contain some of the steamiest, dreamiest sex scenes - ever! Will I read this author again? Just as soon as she releases her next book! And finally, was I entertained? I loved this story and the characters. I cried for them, empathized with them, laughed with them, cheered for them, shook my fists in anger as they fought their enemies This story was captivating, riveting, emotional, gripping, passionate, romantic, sexy and delightfully entertaining, which definitely equals five sinfully sexy stars in my book!!!

If the name Chilton and Glaxious pack seem familiar, it should. What the heck does Thaus know about contracts and negotiations? His skills and talents lean more toward weaponry and blowing things up. But Thaus soon learns from Dante, this is no ordinary contract and no ordinary dispute. Apparently, Alpha Chilton is calling in his year old marker to claim a shewolf from the Kwauhl Pack and use her for a forced mating.

But not just any shewolf Now that got his attention, and changes everything. Omegas are fierce, strong shewolves who possess a special power to strengthen a pack and bind them together. There are only seven Dire wolves left in the world and none female, but Thaus and his six brothers have long held the belief that the Omegas are in reality their female counterparts, their sisters, and as such are considered to be theirs to protect.

Of course, the fact that three of his brothers have recently found their mates and all three are Omegas, only serves to reinforce their belief. So, if this case involves an Omega shewolf, he will gladly protect her with his life. Normally, these women are honored and revered, but they're also coveted, stolen, enslaved, mistreated and bred against their will by unscrupulous, evil men whose only goal is to use them for power, which Thaus has recently seen first hand.

He and his brothers had helped Blaze and the Feral Breed to free a group of kidnapped, enslaved and abused Omegas, and defeat the heinous men responsible for the travesty. Now, Dante is asking him to help another Omega, one who had actually been a victim of the nightmare he'd witnessed only a few short years ago. Thaus was a man of few words who enjoyed the peace and solitude of his cabin located in the mountains of the Northwest United States, but as luck would have it, both packs were located fairly close to him.

Or maybe it's not luck at all It only takes one look at the beautiful Omega shewolf Ariel for Thaus to know that Ariel is his fated mate, and after a millenia of waiting, he would become the fourth of his Dire brothers to find their mate with an Omega, who also named after an angel just like the other three. But things just got a lot more complicated when Alpha Chilton refuses to back down.

Ariel is his to claim! Unfortunately, in order to claim her as his mate, he'd first have to convince her to trust him enough to allow him to touch her. Poor Ariel is suffering from PTSD as a result of her abduction and abuse, and refuses to allow anyone to even get near her, much less touch her. What's a Dire Wolf to do?

Savage Silence

Will Thaus be able to convince the emotionally challenged Ariel that she belongs with him? Will he ever be able to touch his mate? And can he save her from a despicable, malevolent Alpha determined to claim her for himself? No spoilers from me but I will say this Handsome, sexy and very determined Dire Wolf-check! Beautiful, stubborn and distrusting Omega shewolf-check! Danger, drama, betrayal, action and a new, but old malevolent enemy-check! Heated attraction, fiery passion, sweet romance, steamy, dreamy sex and one Dire Wolf determined to claim his mate-you bet!

That and a whole lot more! Aug 26, Heather rated it really liked it Shelves: Thaus has taken on many challenges over and over, but his biggest challenge yet remains in his newly found mate Ariel. The weapon master of the Dire Wolves may be good at blowing stuff up or dealing with arsenal for missions however he wasn't prepared for the threat to his mate or the fine line he has to tread from the scars of her past.

Ariel is an Omega that was once kidnapped and tortured has has the everylasting scars inside and out. She doesn't like to be touched, sudden movements, or be arou Thaus has taken on many challenges over and over, but his biggest challenge yet remains in his newly found mate Ariel. She doesn't like to be touched, sudden movements, or be around anything that triggers her memories. Now she has an Alpha demanding a forced mating with her and Alpha Chilton won't take no for an answer.

Savage Silence (The Devil's Dires #4) by Ellis Leigh

This can be read as a stand-alone but it is better and fully enjoyed if you have read previous books in the series or her other series. They are all connected at some point. Beware reading this is you have issues with rape and the PTSD trauma that comes with surviving it. There is no actual rape portrayed but it is there in context of memories, flashbacks, and vague retelling. The story does end happily after Thaus and Ariel work for their mating and heal. I received an ARC for my honest review.

Dire Wolves

What a sexy, smoking hot, action-packed page-turning must read! You don't want to miss out on this or any of the other awesome stories! Now I can't wait for Phego in the next one, but I will: Aug 24, Sivutha rated it it was amazing Shelves: Thaus is weapon master of the Dire Wolves. He is good at hardcore missions but he was not prepared for the threat to his mate or her past. Ariel is an Omega that was once kidnapped and tortured.

She likes to keep thing to herself because any could trigger her memories. Nobly one wolf cause help her heal. Best Dire Wolves tale yet! Thais is bad and consider a berserk so what do the fates pick as his mate but a werewolf the has survive the worse kind of shell a female can go through. See how he deals with a female who doesn't like to be touched. Sad to read about the depth of torture to the precious Omegas Glad for the strength and bravery of their fated mates, the Dire Wolves and courage of the Feral Breed.

Love these two series! Love this Dire wolf pack series. Ariel and Thaus My favorite in the series so far. I liked how Ariel over came so much and had a strong dire wolf to support her and wait for her to work out all her fears. Nov 11, Joyous rated it it was amazing. Enjoyed this as much as the previous ones.

I think the world Ellis has created is full of detail and very believeable. Can't wait for the next! I've been waiting for this book and it did not disappoint. He didn't like to mingle romantically with human females. But when it came to the Omega women, he would give his life in order to protect them. When he was giving the mission to broker a contract negotiation between the Glaxious pack and the Kwauhl pack.

What Thaus didn't expect was to find out that his ma Break Through!!! What Thaus didn't expect was to find out that his mate was caught in the middle of what was going on. Ariel a shewolf and Omega of the Kwauhl was emotionally and physically scarred, she finally found a pack that accepted her for who she was. But unknown to her, danger was lurking around her because of a two hundred year old deal. She had been kidnapped, tortured and went through so much that it nearly broke her but she was stronger than most thought.

When the sociopath Alpha of the Glaxious pack wanted to claim her as his own against her will.

Thaus made sure she was safe. Despite knowing that Thaus was her mate, Ariel was still against the idea of him touching her, she was broken. Thaus didn't push her to do anything she wasn't ready for, he gave her the space she needed to heal. He wanted to know Ariel better and understand why she'd built walls around herself..

As he began to break through those say walls little by little, Thaus found himself falling deeply in love with his mate. Same goes for Ariel who came to know a side of Thaus that awakened something in her, she thought she lost. Danger found them, but the enemy underestimated the length Thaus would go to protect Ariel. Along with his Dire brothers, he showed their enemies why they were a force to be reckoned with. This book didn't disappoint, I've wanted Thaus' story from the moment he was introduced to us. It was magnificent, beautiful and it pulled at my heartstrings.

Ellis Leigh delivered another rocking novel. Our Omega is threatened, again. She's strong but terrified. Thaus is dumbstruck but determined she's never threatened again. Secrets are revealed and bad guys removed with prejudice. All together another great ending, can't wait for the next one. Sep 09, Felicia rated it it was amazing Shelves: While three of his Dire brethren have found their fated mates, weapons expert, Thaus, holds no such aspirations.

He is a loner, and while maybe not content, he is resolved to live and run in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, leaving only when his brothers need his support, or to handle business for the NALB. With one pack trying to protect her and another trying to claim her, all Omega Ariel wants is to be left alone. Thaus is devastated not only by not being able to claim his mate, but also by the depth of her trauma. Alerting the other Dires, Thaus takes Ariel to his mountain retreat — after she agrees, of course — and reinforces his compound, hoping his brothers arrive before the trouble does.

Trouble does finally show up in an unexpected way, and when Ariel is taken, the Dire in Thaus takes over. Another well-written installment to the series, with good detailed attention given to a character who has suffered serious sexual abuse. This is a Dires mission not to be missed.

Alphas Chilton is a very poor leader, keeping the Glaxious Pack, living in despicable conditions. All he cares about is getting the Omega for himself and than the pack. He wants Thaus to go and broker a contract negotiation, Thaus is a weaponry expert anywhere from hand guns to C4 not a negotiator. He should deny doing this, than Dante said the magic words "Omega", "Forced Mating". No one will touch a hair on any Omega. Than the man who is always silent, especially around people took the job. A broker meeting was called with both Alphas, Thaus and the Omega. Silently he watched the Alphas bicker when a pissed off she-wolf walks in.

Immediately the bond started. Broken, from the abuse, rape, tortured and being chained she escaped these sick men at Merriweather. Ariel is a very strong she-wolf who is just to broken to mate anyone. I was gifted this book for an honest and truthful review. Aug 23, K Cram rated it it was amazing. I could go on and on, you MUST read this one. I have never had a story replay in my head over and over like this one does. I can visually picture it like a movie and it is on instant replay.

Thaus is a Dire Wolf that is sent to oversee a contract dispute involving a she wolf and two neighboring packs. The she wolf is an Omega, which to a Dire Wolf is family, and he will do whatever it takes to protect her. Ariel is an Omega wolf that had been held prisoner for years and escaped. She has a lot of scars and absolutely can not endure anyone touching her. She finds a home in a pack with an alpha that is caring and where she doesn't have to be afraid When Ariel storms into the room announcing she refuses to go everything changes Thaus and Ariel both realize they are mates.

Thaus is huge and intimidating and scares Ariel, but she is also drawn to him and inside knows that he will not hurt her. Thaus will do whatever it takes to make his mate feel safe and protected with him. Even if that means spending the rest of his life with her in company only and never actually touching her.

Thaus is a strong, silent, cuddly giant, and Ariel, well, she is absolutely amazing. She is SO strong. She went through hell, but with Thause as her mate she can overcome anything!

Well done Ellis Leigh!! Can't wait for the next Dire Wolf story. I received this book as an ARC for an honest review. Jan 02, Twinsie Talk Angie J rated it it was amazing. Check out this review and others at www. Thaus is totally rough and gruff which is why I loved hi Check out this review and others at www. Thaus is totally rough and gruff which is why I loved him so much. He is a broody grumpy guy who is kinda wondering if this mating thing his brothers have found is really all that.

He is watching and wondering but he is not a talkative guy. Loyal to the core but very much enjoys silence. Then he jumps at the chance because there is an Omega who is in the middle of the disagreement. She has survived and is just living day by day. Have you SEEN that giant man???

Ariel is worried but chooses to go with Thaus to stay safe. Thaus is stunned and will go at a snails pace to keep his mate happy and allow her time to build trust. The story was amazing. My favorite of the series so far. Claim your mate already!! Aug 30, Jackie Black rated it it was amazing. Before I have to say my favorite Alpha male was Rebel, but Thaus is now my favorite! Over the course her series Leigh has amassed this great group of not only heroes, but heroines and Ariel has to be one of the most courageous.

After being kidnapped and held captive, during which she was raped and tortured Ariel became very weary of people. Thaus comes to settle a dispute over a forced mating. When the Alpha wanting to claim Ariel comes for her they are all in for the fight of their lives. One of the best parts of this book is the delicacy taken with Ariel.

There is a very believable progression of Ariel's journey from a very fear driven person to a person who gradually lets Thaus in and becomes more open to human interaction. The thing that makes that most believable is that at the end she isn't all of the sudden cured and perfect. Faster Bear Paranormal Shifter Romance.
