Nick~

Another stop at the florist and gift shops downstairs gets me headed for the elevators with my arms loaded down. Inside Harley's room, I set the pink elephant and vase of lilies on the bedside table. Kyle's eyes go wide from the recliner where he's kicked back.

He pushes down the footrest and sets up. I'm nervous and moving too fast to show him the ring. The box catches on the corner of my jeans and winds up on the floor at his feet. He picks the box up and gives me a cocked grin as h

  • Bounty for the Lycan Princess ~Nichols~   Chapter~80~Making the best of it.

    Harley~ Nick's care never fails to amaze me, perhaps because it's not repetitious. Only he would have moved all the things that brought me comfort from the apartment. His special touches, like candles and flowers, are a nice improvement. The room itself is an upgrade from the apartment's bedroom. Shiny, real hardwood floors and a big bay window seat make a dramatic entrance. Through the open bathroom door, the king-size bathtub had caught my eye the moment he'd sat us down. Images of Nick, me, and bubbles filling it have me nestling into his chest. His scent draws me in with an irresistible pull. "Thank you, Wolfman." I turn my head and kiss his pecs. "I can't take all the credit; Becky helped. We wanted you to feel at home." "Anywhere you are is home to me." One kiss leads to another. Nick ran his hands along my back, leaving my skin a burning trail from his touch. "I've been thinking about what Seth said, and I want to hold the press conference." Zeek rumbled in his chest as

  • Bounty for the Lycan Princess ~Nichols~   Chapter~79~Testing the waters.

    Nick~ We both looked at Harley; I wanted to question her, but she wasn't looking so good; I know that look! She slapped my chest. "Bathroom, now!" I scoop her up; one of her arms goes around my neck, and the other hand covers her mouth. Becky opens the front door, steps aside, and points to the half-bath off the living room. Harley is squirming in my arms to get to the toilet as we enter. With her in front of me, I drop to my knees just in time to pull her hair back. When there's nothing left inside her, she leans back into me with tears in her eyes, out of breath. "Nick, I'm sorry, but there's nothing Ben can do; I agreed to the test once it was safe. He should know who Nicoletta's father is, too." "No, Harler, Kyle is right about Ben; he could prove to be a danger to us. What about exposure? Our little one doesn't like to be spied on. Imagine what she will do when they poke at her with needles?" She drops her eyes to the floor, and her voice is almost inaudible. "I hadn't thou

  • Bounty for the Lycan Princess ~Nichols~   Chapter~78~Wild one.

    Nick~ Our black SUVs pull out of the hospital parking lot. More media vans waited on the street, and they pulled in behind us as we passed. Now, a caravan of five heads east through downtown LA. We take the US 395 exit and catch another gear. Harley has remained quiet with her head resting on my shoulder. Once her hand returned to its human form, I laced our fingers together. It's hotter than the Fourth of July on a tin roof in the back of the SUV. My voice was sharp when I hit the two-way and asked the driver to turn on the back vents. It didn't matter because it worked, and the AC came to life with a swoosh. Harley's hair blew back as I adjusted the vent for her, but she didn't speak. 'Just be patient with her, Nick.' 'I'm doing my best, Zeek.' 'We also need to help her get a hold of her powers before they get stronger.' 'Seeing as how she has to use those powers on us, I'd say that's an excellent idea. Though the how is a mystery, other than trial and error.' Wh

  • Bounty for the Lycan Princess ~Nichols~   Chapter~77~Breaking free.

    Nick~ Shelia walks away while Zeek is urging me out the door, but it's unnecessary; I'm already gone. The cards go under my arm, and my eyes go to the door. My boots scuffing over the carpet and the glass doors closing behind me sit right with my soul. Salt air and a south breeze surrounded me coming out of the station, ushering me out to freedom. On my way across the parking lot, I'm still trying to connect with Harley. I'm in the car, pulling out, by the time she accepts my call. Harley's voice comes through with a brave front, but it's the underlying shakiness that she can't hide. 'Wolfman?' 'Yes, Amante.' 'I got my discharge instructions.' 'We can go?' 'Yes, we can. Where are you?' 'Leaving the station. Are you ok?' 'Why wouldn't I be?' 'Harley, I know Ben was there.' 'Can we talk about that later, Nick? Hurry, please; I'm ready to go home.' And just like that, she shut me out. Like an old-time operator pulling the plug on a wire. One hand tightened on

  • Bounty for the Lycan Princess ~Nichols~   Chapter~76~And justice for all.

    Nick~ Captain Howard called me three more times before I could get out of the hospital. Once I'm settled in the car, I connect the Bluetooth and accept number four. He informs me that Belinda had a match on what killed Steve. I'm supposed to meet them in the morgue; 'them' includes District Attorney Ben, of course, he would be there. 'You need to keep it cool, Nick. We know Harley and Rae belong to us; it doesn't matter what Ben thinks anymore.' 'I know, Zeek, you just remember you said that.' This is not what I expect to be doing today, not by a long shot. My intention was to drop off the files at the station and get back to Harley. Had I gained my objective, it wouldn't have been very 'FBI-ish,' but I had a plan for that too. Three middle fingers with a string of curses, two forced merges with honking horns, and a couple more close calls get me to the station. Seth's car is here unexpectedly, but it's a relief. The station gets quiet as I walk in, and all eyes are on

  • Bounty for the Lycan Princess ~Nichols~   Chapter~75~My sister's got a secret.

    Kyle~ For quite some time now, I've been standing in the middle of Harley's bedroom without the first clue of what to bring her other than the basics. Becky's voice is high-pitched and fast when she calls for me, insisting that I return to the hospital. The beach bag from the bottom of Harley's closet will have to do. After filling it with one of everything, I take the stairs at top speed and get to my car. My hand grips the wheel as I start the engine, heading back to the hospital. Becky tells me the DA is there. 'What does he want?' 'A pertinent test. You didn't tell me it was possibly not Nick's baby.' 'That's because I didn't know. Has she called for Nick?' 'Not that I've seen. I'd assume not, since Ben has already taken him to jail once. Did you know that?!' 'Yes, I'm on the way.' Lucky for me, there's a parking spot on the ground level. A bit narrow, but it will do. Killing the engine, I grab Harley's bag from the passenger seat, and it's all ass and elbows acr
