Tom looked as if he were about to burst. He was angry and upset. It was weird that I knew that with such certainty. My hands started to shake, and fear griped me, not for me, but for him. I called Michelle over to finish checking out the man I was talking to. He was a regular, but I couldn’t even remember his name in that motherent. It didn’t matter.I walked over and instinctively touched Tom. When he flinched away, it felt like my heart shattered.The logical part of my brain reminded me that we didn’t know each other, and I shouldn’t care or feel hurt at his rejection, but my heart wasn’t listening to that rational argument.“We need to talk, now,” he said in a strained voice.I didn’t argue with him. I didn’t even say a word to anyone or ensure someone covered my tables. Nope, nothing. When he turned and walked back outside, I followed.“What’s wrong?&r

Pride filled me as I watched from just outside. Jasmine stood up for herself. From the way her mother had spoken of her and what little I now knew about her story, I gathered this was a big motherent. She walked out with her head held high and turned away from me to walk to her car. I ran around the other side of the building so not to interrupt her motherent by following her in the big picture window.I found her sobbing next to her car. I dropped my things and pulled her into my arms. We stood there for a while as she cried, and I held her.A few sniffles and she was stiffening and pulling away. I hated it, but I had to let her go.“Are you okay to drive?” I asked.She nodded.“I’ll follow you. Do you know how to get to the hotel?” She nodded again.I desperately wanted to hear her voice, but it had been a long, overwhelming and emotional day for us both. In that motherent I would ha

My head was swimming, and I couldn’t remember how we’d gotten into this position. Wasn’t I sitting several feet away? Everything was so fuzzy now. All I knew without a doubt was that his kisses were the best sexual experience I’d ever had. I never wanted to stop kissing him. The more we kissed the more I ached for him. It was complete insanity.I was straddling him now, rubbing myself shamelessly against his hard rod. I should have been mortified with my actions and the need I felt for him, but I wasn’t. This was my mate and I felt alive and powerful. There was no room for embarrassment.In the few experiences I’d had in the past, I’d been a meek partner in bed. Vanilla, someone had once called me.I didn’t feel vanilla now. Tom had awakened some sort of greedy sensual beast within me. It felt much like a hunt when in my fur. He was my prey and I had him firmly in my sights.

I awoke to an empty bed. I had reached for my mate with a huge smile on my face, but the bed was cold beside me. I was on full alert as I jumped up from bed and checked the bathroom for her. It was empty. I swept the room for any signs of Jasmine. The only thing I found to show that she had even been there at all, was one shoe peeking out from under the bed. Well, that and the mark she had left on my neck when we had sealed our bond.My heart ached and I was finding it hard to breathe.Had she regretted binding herself to me? Anger erupted within me. It was too late for regrets. What was done was done. As far as I knew, there was absolutely no way to undo a bond. She was stuck with me whether she liked it or not.Logically I knew my thoughts were merely a firewall protecting my heart. It was failing though. She had already breeched that too. I had to find her.I was trying to think through what I knew about my mate when there wa

I wasn’t opposed to going with Tom. Despite what he had tried to say, I knew what I had done when I tied myself to him. For me to believe otherwise would take time and examples. Layla had always warned me about it. “Don’t give away your soul and body to a man. Bonding it forever, Jasmine,” she would say. I had done it in a motherent of passion, but Tom appeared to be a good man and for some reason I had no regrets. Logically, I thought I should, but I didn’t. Tom motioned for Sapphire to come back over.“Check please,” he said.“No,” she said.“Look, I need to talk to your sister and not here in the open,” he said as if I weren’t sitting right there between them.“Did you realize you handed me over $800 yesterday?” Sapphire asked him.“I am and you aren’t giving it back.”“ Tom, that&

“ Tom,” I said as I answered the mobile. “Well at least you’re still alive. We just got back, and I figured I’d check in since I hadn’t heard anything. I’m assuming no news is good news?” Alex asked.“Yup. All good on this end. How was the mission?” “In and out, nothing exciting. Yours too?” I almost smiled. Mine was far from boring.“I identified our attacker.” For some reason I didn’t want to share the fact that she had been my mate, at least not yet.“So he’s been dealt with?”“She, actually.”“Oh really?” he asked, suddenly sounding interested. “Tell me.”“Shifter. She’s looking for her sister. I’m going to need to put an inquiry out on one Sonnet— hold on.” I covered the receiver with my hand even knowing Alex would st

We had no idea where we were going or what to expect. My car was largely packed with all of my stuff. We still had Sapphire’s car to fill with her stuff. Sage’s would have to be dispersed between the three vehicles. Not wanting to pay for a moving truck we all agreed to stop and buy air mattresses. We weren’t going to take any of the furniture or big stuff. Only necessities and important personal items. That proved easier said than done. While I had never really had much, Mother had spoiled the other girls with an over abundance of clothes, shoes, and well, stuff.“If I’m being honest, I don’t even like this stuff. Can I just pick out the things I actually want to wear and just start over buying what I need when I need it and can afford to do so?” Sapphire asked. “I mean look at these?”She pulled on an orange, yellow, and green dress that had the gypsy appeal our mother loved. She fancied herse

The drive back to San Marco was just as stressful as the drive to Womack. Leslie still wanted to stop every hour to stretch and pee. I even tried banning liquids and that woman still had to pee. I suspected she was doing it just to drive me insane.With three cars our caravan ran at a slower pace than I normally would have driven by myself. We had five drivers to rotate between them, so it wasn’t too bad. Leslie had even taken turns riding in each vehicle.“I just want to get to know my new granddaughters is all,” she insisted.I loved that she was already accepting them into our little family pack. It meant a lot to me, but I suspected it meant a great deal to her too.It was late afternoon before Jasmine finally took a break from behind the wheel and road shotgun with me. I held her hand grateful for a few minutes alone with my mate. I’d missed her even if I did see her at every single stop Leslie insisted on.We were making good

I woke up all alone in a strange bed in a room I didn’t recognize at first. The only thing familiar at all to me was the intoxicating scent of my mate. “ Tom?” I called out but I could tell he wasn’t there. He’s left without even saying a word.I sat up with a huff.Feeling the call of nature, I jumped out of bed and ran for the bathroom. While there I went ahead and jumped in the shower trying to wash away some of the fears I had as the reality of my situation was starting to sink in.I’d mated a man I didn’t know. I’d sold my business and currently my only source of income. I’d uprooted my sisters and dragged them down this rabbit hole with me. I gulped. I lived with a very large pack of wolves. There had to be hundreds of them if not thousands.My head felt like it had been in a haze since the motherent Tom walked into my life.That veil was slowly lifti

When Alex changed our plans and sent us on an emergency mission, I was not pleased. Jasmine had been gone when I went home to tell her. I was a little grateful for it. I hadn’t called her because of that. Instead, I’d left a stupid note. I did feel bad for that. I’d never had to worry about anyone else before. As a courtesy I would call Leslie to let her know when I got called out on a mission. Mostly that was just because I knew she’d give me shit if I didn’t. I hadn’t called her this time either.I had thought the mission was taking us back to Colorado bear country to extract Sonnet, but this one wasn’t about that. The team was being sent down to New Mexico to rendezvous with Echo team.Alex hadn’t come with us. He was acting a little stranger than usual and was determined to have a clean extraction. He was working closely with Jake and being hush-hush on why we were being delayed. The rest of
