The Allure of the
Lycan
The hero of Lycan
Unleashed is—you guessed it—a lycan. Mason Sanderson is also an agent in
the Otherworlder Enforcement Agency (OWEA). The OWEA is similar to the real
world FBI, except that they deal with non-human cases. The otherworlders of
this world are out in the open, and are policed similarly to normal human.
I’m a huge fan of lycans and werewolves. Some of my favorite
books and movies feature them, and while I’m also a huge fan of vampires and
other supernatural creatures, lycans will always hold a special allure for me.
I’m particularly fond of the werewolves in Patricia Brigg’s
Mercy Thompson and Alpha and Omega series, as well as the smexy one in
Underworld. One of the main characters in the television show Grimm is a
werewolf (although his technical name is something different), and I think he’s
one of the most fascinating characters. And I can’t forget Alicide from
Charlaine Harris’s books. To be totally honest, I love that character twice as
much when I get to watch Joe Manganiello play him. ;-)
A few reasons I think they’re so attractive to many of us:
Wildness
Lycans have that edge of the wild, a glimmer of their beast
inside that peeks through. They are men, but the beast within is many times
barely contained. Something is infinitely attractive about a barely controlled
wild nature beneath the smoother human exterior. In fiction, anyway, haha.
Loyalty
Lycans always strike me as a loyal group, and I find that
very attractive. Many times a presented as a pack animal, they do what needs to
be done to protect their packs, sometimes even laying down their lives. What
woman wouldn’t want a man who, after he is committed, would give his life to
protect her?
Strength
Lycans are tough. And despite how evolved I like to think I
am, a good show of strength always gets my blood pumping. Nothing like a man
who can toss my enemies across the room to defend me—if, you know, I had
enemies ornery enough to deserve a tossing.
Wolves are Adorable
Yeah, I said it. Wolves are flipping cute. Granted, not all
werewolves and lycans are presented as particularly cute and fuzzy in their
changed forms, but it had to be mentioned. :-)

Detective Astrid Holmes is a sensitive, a human capable of feeling the energy of otherworlders. When she is dispatched to the horrific murder scene of a local vampire, she expects it to be just another day on the job. But when evidence is stolen on her watch, she is removed—not only from the investigation, but from her job as a member of the Chicago police department’s paranormal unit.
Astrid’s only hope of reinstatement lies with her ex co-worker and almost-lover, lycan Mason Sanderson. But convincing the OWEA agent to let her assist with the investigation isn’t nearly as difficult as staying alive when the murderer realizes that Astrid may hold the key to unlocking his identity.
Fighting to take down a killer could have deadly consequences for Astrid and Mason, but working together puts their already fragile relationship in jeopardy.
