“I’d like to get to know you better,” she said.

He ran his tongue over his teeth. The dark shadow on his jaw and the wicked glint in his eyes held her spellbound. “That’s exactly what I want, sweetheart. I want to know everything about you. When can I see you again?”

“I have a couple deadlines coming up this week, but I’ll have more time on Thursday.”

“Then I’ll be here Thursday,” he said. The man was a go-getter, and she had no intention to refuse him. She expected he got everything he wanted.

“Thanks again for taking care of me.”

“That’s my job.” Under the glow of the moon, he leaned down and kissed her on the mouth. She supposed it was intended as a simple good-bye, but she wanted more. Rebecca wrapped her fingers around the collar of his shirt, pulling him down, deepening the kiss. His musky scent and scratchy stubble made her feel so feminine. He was a beast of a man, and she wondered if he was husky or muscular under the layers. She didn’t care. Liam made her feel like a princess, and that wasn’t an easy task. “You’re already mine,” he whispered against her lips. Then he stood straight.

“Maybe,” she said. For the first time in a long time, life excited her. It wasn’t shrouded in fears and uncertainties, just genuine joy.

“Get some sleep,” he said. “And be careful when you leave the house. For a while, it would probably be best not to talk to strangers.”

She found it an odd thing to say. Did he think she was a crazy magnet, or was he already starting to be controlling? She’d rather stay single than deal with a fatal attraction. “I’ll start going out in the afternoon instead of at night.”

Rebecca had only gone shopping at night to avoid all the townsfolk, but Liam had given her enough confidence that she was going to give daytime shopping a go. She wanted to face her fears, not just look at life from behind a window.

“You have my number. Any time, day or night, call if you need me.”

She nodded. He stayed on the sidewalk until she got inside the building. It was like going back in time when men were still gentlemen. Rebecca got to her third-floor apartment. Before she turned on her table lamp, she glanced down at the street. It was late, so the neighborhood was deserted. She hoped to see Liam drive away, but he was gone.

A wolf ran by in the distance. It was a massive black wolf cutting through the neighborhood. She let out a little gasp, hoping Liam didn’t run into it. Being this far north, they weren’t even safe outside the forests. She was definitely not heading out at night ever again.

She plopped down on her sofa and stared at the ceiling, lost in daydreams. Rebecca couldn’t stop thinking about Thursday.

Chapter Four

Tracking through the woods over the next couple of days, Liam paid careful attention to any new scent. He hadn’t liked how hunters or enemy packs had been lurking while he’d been on a date with Rebecca. The natural competition in wolves was often sparked to life before a male claimed his mate. They’d be able to sense his territorial threat, and their wolves would crave to compete for the prize. He’d never let anyone take Rebecca from him. There’s no way his wolf would even allow it.

Just thinking about her was enough to make him so fucking hard. He wanted her in his bed as soon as possible. Over the past couple of days, he’d done nothing but think about her. How she’d feel beneath him. The scent of her skin. Her beautiful eyes. Her soft hair. He wondered about her pussy and how tight it would feel wrapped around his cock.

So far, she hadn’t called him back about their second date. Thursday felt like a lifetime away.

He was obsessing. Combing through the surrounding forest and land, he had to make sure everything was safe for her. Two attacks within a short amount of time was just ridiculous. He’d never known that.

“What exactly are we looking for?” Jake asked.

“If you remember, he said not to ask questions.” Eli spoke up this time.

“Guys, shut up otherwise he’s going to go all alpha on our asses,” Ben said.

Liam had gotten his three best friends to help in the perimeter checks of their territory. Not only were they mated males but also good trackers. Shifters from other packs were getting too close to home. Too close to his mate.

“I’ve told you many times before you came out here. I need you to catch any scent at all and head in that direction.”

“Trespassers would be crazy to enter your land,” Ben said.

“There’s a lot of crazy people around.”

“You’re not going to tell us what this is about?” Jake asked.
