I tense, and everything aches. I can’t sleep on that ledge another night. “She’s not to be fucked with.” It’s as simple as that. “All due respect, man, but—” He casts me a wary look. “It’s kind of the opposite.” “Explain.” “I mean, you see it yourself. Everyone knows she’s something to you. You might…

I type and then delete an order not to take pictures of her ass. What is she doing? He sends another picture. She’s squatting. Idk, boss. This. I put my phone down before I throw it, and Seth and I drive in silence until we cross into Moon Lake territory. I’m on edge, every nerve…

My wolf is a dark outline behind glass as thick as blocks of ice. “What do you mean?” “You know what I mean.” “You’ve seen my wolf.” Once a year or so, Moon Lake and Quarry Pack will run together under a full moon, mostly as an excuse to see some different folks naked. Killian…

“Boss? You coming?” Derwyn calls from safely around the corner. I see boredom has won out against his sense of self-preservation. I do need to go—I have to—but it’s not easy to drag myself away from the tin can on a floating dock. It’s only biology, the male instinct to guard his property. Rosie’s still…

A cool shadow falls on my back. The asphalt crunches. A heavy hand lays on my shoulder blade. I shiver. “Rosie?” I stiffen. Cadoc sighs. “I’m going to pick you up, Rosie.” He lifts me, curled in my ball, gently tossing me once so I settle against his chest, cradling me in his arms like…

The muscle at his left temple twitches. I poke a little more because that’s not all of it. Not by far. And I’m riveted. He also wants to look at me. He wants me to drop my arms and arch my back to lift my breasts like an offering. He wants me to sit back…

When we get to the gym, we join the other straggling scavengers. A few of us break for the bleachers, but Mr. Arnold blocks our way, pointing toward the locker room. “Not today, slackers. Everyone in uniform. Go on.” He’s met by a chorus of groans, but we do as we’re told and after some…

I seize the bond and tug. He trips forward a few steps. I watch the emotions flit across his face. Surprise. Alarm. Curiosity. The bond tugs in my chest. It’s not a violent yank, it’s more like a steady pull, urging me along. I stagger. He grins. It’s quick, a flash of straight, white teeth,…

None of this is right. The ladies make way as I pass, their loving, worried fingers brushing my hair and my arm and the backpack I grab from its hook and sling over my shoulder. Seth has stepped back so he doesn’t block the steps. He’s stiff and dour, the soldier carrying out an order…
