Life’s Spiced Up with Some Werewolf Reads
My head spins. “But he’s healing, right? He’s a shifter, so he should…” “He’s not healing.” Jake cuts me off, his voice tight. “He’s completely cut off from his wolf, and without it he can’t heal, he’s practically human right now.” The world slows as I look at him and try to comprehend what they’re…
“His blood’s still fighting the toxin,” Poppy says after checking the monitors. “But it’s slower now, which is good. The transfusion’s buying us time.” “How much time?” Parker asks. Poppy meets his eyes. “Enough to pray it’s enough.” Parker looks between me, Ryder and Callen before holding out his arm. “Give him some of mine,”…
115 lungs, paws hitting the ground in rhythm. The new wolves keep pace well; they’re disciplined, silent, and smart enough not to crowd us. I can’t help the flicker of pride that hits me as I run. I used to see patrol as nothing more than a job that had to be done, but now…
My chest tightens. I’ve never felt this kind of separation from him before. Usually, he’s there, a steady, instinctive presence under my skin, his emotions mingling with mine. But now… there’s silence. He’s not gone exactly; he just feels distant. I push through the link, trying to reach him, but it’s like shouting into fog.…
“She deserves to relax, maybe with a massage and a candlelit bath?” Parker suggests. “A nice dinner too,” Ryder adds. “Good,” I say. “Here’s the plan. Home-cooked dinner. Ryder, can you handle steaks? Parker, you and Remy make the sides and dessert. I’ll set the table and make sure the patrols are rearranged so all…
My answering laugh is cut short as Callen kisses me again, deeper this time. I feel the mattress dip behind me as my mates move. Hands pull at the knot holding my bathrobe closed, and then someone is pulling the thick fabric from my shoulders. Mouths land on either side of my neck, kissing and…
**Paige’s POV ** I wake up before the sun. The room is dark but warm. I can hear all four of my men breathing around me, their breaths soft and even. My mind drifts back to what happened before I passed out into the deepest sleep I think I’ve ever had. My cheeks flush as…
He nods against my neck. “Yeah. I dreamed we were flying. You were a wolf, and Daddy was too, but he was chasing you, and you were laughing.” Ryder chuckles softly from where he’s leaning against the counter. “Sounds about right.” Jaxon’s head pops up at the sound of his dad’s voice. “Daddy!” His sleepy…
Parker glances toward the treeline. “They should be here soon. I told Callen to let us know as soon as they clear the border.” I can feel Paige’s nerves, subtle but there, her fingers fidgeting with the hem of her hoodie, and her gaze flicking toward the path that leads into the trees. I’move closer,…
For a fleeting second, I imagine turning around and marching my sorry ass straight back to the cabin, locking myself in the bathroom with a bottle of wine, and admitting that I’m a massive wimp who just has a big mouth. What was I thinking? These men we’re about to meet aren’t PTA dads or…
