Chapter 16
Connor felt like a dog chasing his own tail. He didn’t want to even imagine what the other werewolves with him were thinking or whispering behind his back. He had a group of four of his pack wolf shifters with him, ordinary betas who served as soldiers of the pack. The five of them had been tasked with finding Mia and returning her to the pack, but he was in charge. It was him that made the decisions, and him who got the unpleasant task of informing the alpha every time their lead went cold.
And another lead had definitely gone cold. He felt like breaking something. He would have preferred to be in a bloody, gruesome, bone breaking fight right about now, then to accept that the alpha’s daughter had yet again outsmarted him.
He had been so certain that he had her after catching her scent in the bar. That had been two nights ago. They had searched every inch and under every rock in the town they thought she could hide in and had come up with noth

Mia reached for her bag, which she had dropped by the door at the same time Asher’s hand wrapped around her arm to stop her. She was so angry; she was literally vibrating with the effort it took to hold her wolf back. “Let go,” she told him harshly through her clenched teeth. “Give a guy a chance to explain before you shoot him,” Asher responded quietly. He positioned himself so his front completely made contact with her back and cornered her against the wall next to the front door. It was a daring move, considering what he had seen her do to the two guys who had attacked her outside the bar the very first night he had met her. He had little doubt she could push him back and leave any second. The fact that she didn’t do exactly that gave him a tiny glimmer of hope. He sighed quietly and tried to reason with her. “Let me explain, it’s not what you think.” “You want to explain that?” She jerked her head in the direction of the kit

At her request, and against his strongest and deepest wish, Asher set Mia up in one of the guest bedrooms. Needless to say, he had picked the closest room to his own, and he spent hours straining to listen to whatever she was doing in the room next door. By the end of the night, he felt like a creep and he was exhausted to the bone. To add to his frustrations, Asher had to leave her alone in the house that morning because he had neglected his workload long enough. It was beginning to worry some of the investors and colleagues he dealt with. It always irritated him how fragile the business world was, but there was nothing he could do but reassure everyone that he was fine and his companies were not about to drown like the titanic. His only consolation was that she was in his house and he would see her in just a few hours. Asher sat at his desk and tried to plough through as many of the documents as possible. He was doing an impressive job

Mia paced the hallway like a caged animal. In a way, if she thought about it, she really was an animal and probably caged, but not in the literal term. Asher hadn’t locked her in his house, if she wanted, she could have left the moment she woke up that morning and found herself alone in his house with only a note explaining that he had gone to the office and would be back in the evening. The note had sounded so domestic and normal. Well, there was nothing normal about whatever was going on between her and Asher, Mia thought. For starters, nothing was supposed to be going on between her and the human. Wolf shifters didn’t mate with humans. It had never happened in all the history of the packs. Not that she would say that Asher and her were now mated. They only had sex once. But as though that was not enough of a crime she had already committed, there was also the fact that she was originally supposed to mate with Alpha Dylan of the Ice lak

She felt twitchy and her wolf howled for blood. She spared a moment and thought of Asher in the house, taking a shower and unaware of the danger outside his house. Every protective instinct she had came to the surface. In that second, she knew she would do anything to make sure Asher was safe. Her veins filled with rage even as her wolf clawed at her to get out. She had thought she would still have some time to figure things out, but it looked like time was not on her side. It took just a few seconds to step away from the house and walk into the dark backyard where she knew the intruder awaited. The scent was unmistakable; it was the same one she had caught on Asher’s hand just minutes before. The Vampire had followed Asher home. Any hope she may have had that it was all a coincidence that a vampire walked into Asher’s office and there was nothing to it, was gone. Mia clenched her teeth. It was clear sh

Chris hadn’t bargained for the possibility of explaining himself to the woman. His plan had been to take her and find out why the two packs he hated the most in the world were after her. She was simply supposed to be his ticket to getting back at Blue creek and Ice lake. She was an important asset to both packs, and he was going to exploit the opportunity. Now he stared at the wolf, growling at him and James. Maybe his approach hadn’t been award winning, but he hadn’t expected things would get this far off. Damn. Living as a rogue, he had forgotten how temperamental female wolves were. Chris cleared his throat and tried again. “Do you think you could shift back so we can hold this conversation like civilized people?” he asked tentatively. “She doesn’t look like she wants to talk,” James whispered from his position, still slightly behind Chris for his own safety. Unfortunately, James was right. Chris could see that, too. The she-wolf had

Asher and Layla watched in disbelief as the two police vehicles drove down the driveway and away from his house. The black and white of the cars were only highlighted by the flashing red and blue lights. Soon enough, the cars disappeared and the last of the flashing lights with them. “Did that just happen?” Layla asked in a shocked whisper. She had seen and heard it all, but couldn’t believe it. She blinked and gazed in the direction the police cars had disappeared. “I can’t believe that happened,” she muttered. Before Asher could come up with an answer, not that he could even think of one, he was completely baffled; Luckily for him, another car entered his driveway. As it got closer, he recognized the car. “You called Dave?” Asher turned to his sister and arched his eyebrow. Her hand came up in a gesture that said ‘duh.’ “Come on, Asher, strange shit happened here tonight... of course I called Dave.” Dave stepped out of

The sound of his phone ringing brought Alpha Dylan out of his private thoughts. He didn’t appreciate the disturbance, not that he was actually thinking of anything positive. Not bothering to hurry and find out who was calling him, he gently set the cold bottle of beer on the table and retrieved the phone. He gave the screen a stoic glance before sliding his finger across the screen and then pressing the phone to his ear. “You have something?” he asked the person on the line without bothering with pleasantries. “It could be nothing…” “If you thought it was nothing...you wouldn’t have called,” Dylan interrupted in a hard tone, his growl almost following his words. The line went silent for a moment. Dylan called on all the self-control he could muster. Keeping a cool head was vital for an Alpha, but the situation was beyond testing his limits. When he had agreed to Levi’s offer to mate with his daughter,

Mia never thought it was possible, but she actually missed the little shitty town she had been hiding in for months. At least there, when she was hungry and broke, she could have simply shifted into her wolf and gone hunting in the woods for a rabbit or something equally sizable to fill her empty stomach. That was not the case in the city. Here she could not shift at will and there were no woods to hunt it. Unless she wanted to hunt rats and stray dogs in the dark alleys. Mia grimaced at the thought. Even at the point of starvation, that thought would never fly. She sighed. Everything she ate, she had to buy at the supermarket. Life in the city was damn expensive, and she was broke. She, however, didn’t have the option of leaving the city, not with the way her wolf craved for Asher. The animal was almost driving her crazy. So instead, Mia made her way through a part of town she was sure would be considered the headquar
