The Alpha's Fake Mate’
Some way.
A soft knock at the door gets my attention.
I wipe my eyes and walk over, wondering who it could be at this hour. My hand turns the knob.
Jethro stands there, shirtless, wearing only dark pants that hang low on his hips. The sight steals my breath. His body is perfect; powerful muscles sculpted from years of Alpha strength, his neck tattoo winding down toward his chest, broad shoulders, and narrow waist. Bandages still wrap his shoulder, head, and neck, but they do little to hide how devastatingly handsome he is. Heat rises to my cheeks unbidden.
