"What an incredible location this is!""Given the price that I paid for it, it certainly ought to be." He leaned in and gave the tip of her nose a kiss. "Would you like to see the rest?"“Sure.”After helping her to her feet, he guided her into a room that had dark wood paneling on the walls. The floor was covered with a forest-green carpet, and the one window in the room had matching drapes hanging on it. On either side of the window, there was a pair of bookcases that reached all the way up to the ceiling. Figurines made of brass depicting mounted knights, dragons, and other creatures might be found strewn around the shelves of books. In the far corner, there was a life-size wooden Sudanese replete with a warbonnet and a lance. The space was dominated by a big desk that only accommodated a single laptop computer. She took notice of the mini refrigerator in white that was situated next to the desk. There is no need to inquire as to the purpose of that. Gwen said, "I take it that you

While he was sitting next to her, he remarked that there was no point in being upset over something that couldn't be changed. But the fact of the matter was, once he got over his initial anxiety and shock, he found that he rather like it. "And you, how are you? You appreciate being a werewolf?"She shot his comments right back in his face. "'There is no point in wallowing in misery over something that cannot be changed.' This is how I came into the world.""So, when the moon is full, you essentially transform into a furry creature."She nodded."In what ways does it normally impact you? You didn't pull a Lon Chaney and start killing anything that walks on two legs the other night, so I'm going to assume you have at least some control over your behavior.“Yes. I've never had the overwhelming desire to go on a killing spree of any type, but I do feel the need to hunt, although it's usually just deer or rabbits and the occasional squirrel. Her cheeks became slightly flushed as she said t

When she realized that it was time to pay the piper, she let out a loud sigh that was followed by a trembling sound.Not that she was being negative about anything. There was no point in her pretending that she did not want Phil as much as he wanted her because he was without a doubt the most sexually alluring man she had ever encountered. It seemed only fair that she be given the opportunity to select her first boyfriend, considering that she was required to return home in the spring and accept the engagement to a guy she had no say in selecting. She was well aware that her father would not be pleased with her decision. And Noah would definitely be appalled to learn that his bride was not a virgin, but she did not care one way or the other about whether or not he approved of the situation.After then, a fresh idea came to her, and she grinned to herself quietly. When Noah found out that she was no longer virginal, it's possible that he might lose interest in her.Problem solved!She

to well up in her eyes, which she quickly blinked away. She had no idea that she would develop such a strong attraction to Phil. Her only idea was to disobey her father at that moment. Even if she couldn't pick her own husband, she could at least choose who would be her first lover on her own. She only realized, after it was too late, that she had been caught in her own trap. What had begun as a casual hookup had suddenly developed into something far more serious, at least on her end of the relationship. She quietly climbed out of bed and made her way towards the bathroom. The door was painted the same light blue as the walls, and there was no handle on it, so it was almost impossible to see it was there. She had no idea it was there until Phil interrupted their sexual activity last night and pointed it out to her. If he hadn't done so, she never would have realized it was there. The door was opened by a touch. After stepping beyond the threshold, she immediately locked the door behin

She peered at the liquid with mixed anticipation and loathing. After taking a deep breath, she lifted the cup to her lips. Warm or cold, the taste was very terrible, but the outcomes made the horrible taste worthwhile.Shuddering, she drained the glass in a single gulp, then hurled it into the flames.Only one bottle of the vampire’s blood remained. She would have to use it soon, or it would lose its effectiveness.Time was of the essence.Leaving Gwen to get ready and pack, Phil made a fast trip to a car rental office where he hired a late-model black Lexus. His next destination was a shopping center where he bought two huge luggage for Gwen and a smaller one for himself. He also picked up a case of bottled water, a family-sized bag of chips, and three dozen varied granola bars.Gwen was still folding their clothing when he returned.“Where are we going?” she inquired as she began placing her things in one of the luggage. It wasn’t easy, fitting everything Phil had purchased her into

When they approached their room, Phil proceeded to open the door using the keycard that he had previously inserted into the slot. He cast a cursory glance in every direction, expressing appreciation for the drapes that helped to darken the room."Nice place." Gwen repressed a yawn while she waited for Phil to lock the door, and then she entered the bedroom after he did.Phil remarked, "I don't want you to leave the room," as he set the suitcases down on the flat wooden bench that was located at the foot of the bed. "I'm sorry." "Not in any way, shape, or form. Understand?”Gwen acknowledged this with a nod before hurriedly donning her nightgown and climbing under the covers. After another five minutes, she had fallen asleep.Phil quickly disrobed before climbing into bed next to her and lying down. He kept his eyes on her until the dawn broke, and then he ran blindly into the abyss of forgetfulness.Gwen sat up, yawning. A quick peek to her right revealed that Phil had, as far as the

She supported herself on one elbow as she examined his face, her fingertips delicately following the line of his mouth, his brow, and his nose as she did so. She began by stroking his neck before moving on to his shoulder and then down his arm. She positioned her hand so that her palm was resting on his chest, and then she moved her fingers from his flat belly all the way down to his waist.When his palm wrapped over hers, she let out a startled cry, and her throat appeared to be tightening.He mumbled something under his breath while staring at her with his eyes squinted and saying, "Some of us are trying to sleep here.""I thought you only woke up when there was an immediate threat to your life?""I was awakened by your thoughts." His eyes began to burn with rage. "The siren song of your desire is one that no man, living or dead, could possibly ignore."Gwen felt herself blushing at his words, which were almost lyrical. However, it was the contact of his hand gliding up and down her

"Phil," she mumbled to herself. "Perhaps it would be best if we..." The peacefulness of the night was rudely interrupted by a mournful howl, which caused her head to snap up."You don't have any fear of wild animals, do you?" Phil questioned with a sly smirk on his face.Gwen stated, "It's not just any old wolf," in response to the question. "That's my dad," the man said.Phil shot an eye upward. The night sky was illuminated by a thin crescent moon. "I thought the only time your people changed was when the moon was full?""At any given time, Alpha could shift."He grumbled, "You neglected to mention that little fact," as he pointed out his oversight.“Did I? A couple of the other wolves can likewise change their appearance whenever they want.Phil said, "I'm not worried about them," while dismissing his concerns with a wave of his hand. "Do you think your father knows that we're here?""I really don't know." Her eyes traveled over the mountain range. "I don't think that's the case. A
