The minute the scent of her arousal hit him, Cullen felt his wolf surge like nothing he'd ever experienced. No battle or woman before now had ever summoned his spirit like this. He wanted her and there was nothing else in the world right at that moment. Just this enigmatic female standing proudly in front of him, challenging him, and drawing him in. He still couldn't place her scent. It wasn't lycan, was it? But it wasn't completely human either. Could he even be drawn like this to something that was neither human or lycan? Was she fey? Maybe a druid? But he thought he knew those scents as well. Cullen felt his wolf taking too much control. He forced himself to pull his hand away from her and step back. It wasn't until he wrenched himself back into the moment that he realized his eyes had shifted. She was just standing there staring. He could smell her arousal, hear her breathing, he could almost feel her heart beat thudding in time with his own. When he felt the stirring in his pants he knew that things had gone way too far. His brain was screaming, You don't even know what she is! But his heart, soul, and wolf were insisting, Take her. **** This book also contains a compilation of steamy and erotic werewolf stories that you will love. You can be sure of getting the best collection here.

Alana joined him, then Sophia; even Ted nodded appreciatively. Rachel looked slightly embarrassed as she did a little curtsey."Magic." Ted said matter-of-factly."Yeah." Sophia breathed."So will you help?" Rachel asked the paramedics. Everyone else seemed too stunned to say much, including Ethan himself. He felt like he was seeing her for the first time and with new eyes.He noticed Alana give him a funny look, and he realized she had probably felt something over their bond.*I'll tell you later.* He thought to her and she nodded. He shook his head, bringing his mind back to the situation at hand."Will you help?" He asked the two stunned p
Ethan pulled the battery out of the phone and the screen went blank as the 911 operator's voice abruptly ceased. "That should do it."Alana and Rachel were giving him strange looks and staring at the phone in his hand."You told us what they did, but somehow..." Rachel trailed off with an impressed look on her face. "What genius created those?""A scientist." He replied with more than a little glee.Rachel's cheeks got slightly pink. "You can't be serious."Alana laughed.He shrugged. "All the technological marvels you see around you were made possible by science. All of them, though the actual inventions themselves were by engineers and inventors. Humanity has done pretty well for itself without magic I'd say."Rachel made a thoughtful sound. She wasn't exactly disagreeing, but she also seemed reluctant to agree. She turned back to the metal trash can they had 'borrowed' from a nearby residence, and she made sure the fire inside was large enough for her to draw heat from.Ethan heard
"We're ready here." Anthiel said. "Go ahead and signal Ethan."*Master, we're ready to open the portal.* She said to him telepathically.*We're ready over here too. Go ahead.*The Fey teen nodded to Anthiel and they both put their hands on the large control crystal and started feeding mana into it. It sucked it up like a sponge. It took almost a minute to fully charge the main gem and all seven of the other gems located on the large ring itself. When it was fully charged, it stopped accepting mana, which was good because Taloni was very nearly out.When they were done, all seven gems on the ring flashed at the same moment, then something that looked almost like water started flowing from the inside of the ring toward the open center. It moved like honey or maple syrup; slowly and like it was very thick. In seconds it had met in the center, forming a membrane and then began to relax.Moments later, Ethan stepped through the portal and shivered. "God that's an unpleasant feeling."Talon
"Okay." Jason shrugged and offered the bags, which the ladies took with interest. Ethan took one, pulled out the burger and only stopped long enough to savor the aroma before tearing off the wrapper and taking a huge bite. The ladies did likewise, stopping only to say thank you before they too were chewing Earth's most ubiquitous fast food.It didn't taste very good; not like he remembered. He didn't let his displeasure show in his face and wolfed down another bite, hungry as he was. The ladies chewed it with confused looks on their faces."That's very..." Alana cocked her head to one side."...different." Rachel finished, then added hastily. "Not bad different, just different.""Speaking of different." Jason said as he turned to Ethan and indicated one of the bedrooms. "Could I talk to you for a minute? I want to get an opinion on something.""Sure." He said wolfing down the rest of his burger. It was amazing how much faster he could eat with a dragon's mouth.Then went into the bedr
"You can come to the station with us so we can get started on that sketch." Selene replied.Hailey stood up, then hesitated as she glanced at Jason and Melinda."Can we come?" Jason asked. "We just got Hailey back and don't want to lose her again.""Absolutely." Mason replied. "We'll be downstairs to escort you in."Selene followed Mason's cue as he said goodbye and left. She thought it was rather abrupt, but waited until they were back in the car to ask about it."Good work with that "hypothetical' stuff." Mason grunted. "Almost makes up for you forgetting to ask Miss Oswald down to the station.""Thank you." She replied. "Why did we leave so quickly?""There's more to this story and I didn't want to spook that Ethan guy." Mason narrowed his eyes and started stroking the stubble on his chin. "There's something off about him.""No kidding." Selene agreed.She briefly considered showing him the photo on her phone, but decided against it. She felt completely nuts just thinking about it,
"It seemed like they were intentionally being cagey about where they went, how they got there, and especially who helped them escape." She said as she thought back to her conversation with Hailey and Ethan. "But I think I know who helped them."She then explained about her interview earlier."Them both showing up the same morning isn't a coincidence." Mason said. "We'll learn more when that girl you mentioned visits the station."Selene grimaced. "Um, I kind of forgot to ask her to."Mason gave her a stern look"I'm sorry." She offered.Mason didn't respond, he just looked at her with his piercing eyes. Somehow, she almost felt an air of fatherly disapproval coming off him."I'll do better next time." She said."Yes, you will." He said sternly as he turned the car on and started backing out. "For now, we'll just have to hope she's still there. You're navigating."She pulled out her phone, punched in the address from her history, and then on a lark opened the picture of the dragon whil
*And all this is normal?* She asked Ethan for the dozenth time.*Yup, I'll tell you all about it later.* He said with a chuckle.The wood elf reluctantly turned her attention to the matter at hand.Jason and Melinda had excused themselves to a far corner of the room right after the FBI agent had left. They had talked for about a minute.Alana took a deep, reassuring breath. It felt like the air here was very thick. Well, not the air, but the mana in the air. She couldn't draw mana through the Ether as fast as she was consuming it. The difference was slight, but noticeable.Trying to draw mana was like trying to breathe through a thick piece of cloth; you got what you needed, but not enough. At the rate she was consuming her mana, she could probably stay here as long as a week... maybe two; but no longer. Any longer and she would need to start consuming her deep mana.Further, using any mana would dramatically reduce the time she could spend here. She decided right then that she would
Jason got a mischievous look on his face as the girls calmed down, then said with a Joker-esque smile while rubbing his stomach. "Well that was fun. Who's for Chinese?"Hailey and Melinda chuckled."Batman, the animated series." Hailey said by way of explanation at the confused looks on Ethan, Alana, and Rachel's faces."In all seriousness though, I'm so glad you're back Hailey." Jason said a little more soberly."Me too." She replied."Me three." Melinda added in an excited, mock-child voice. It seemed that Jason's penchant for lightening the mood with humor had rubbed off on the Latina woman."I can't thank you enough." Jason said to the Argo's crew."You're welcome." Ethan replied. "I don't want to open a whole can of worms, but I want to make sure Hailey is okay; can she stay with you two?" He asked them.Melinda and Jason looked at Hailey, then at each other, then at the Latina's very pregnant belly. Hailey looked very unsure."You don't need to--" she began, but they cut her off
Hailey had likewise frozen."Honey, who is it?" A male voice -- who he assumed was Jason -- called again from another room."It's..." Melinda seemed to be struggling for words. "You should come out here." She finally called over her shoulder and then turned to the rest of them. "You better come in.""Be out in a minute." Jason called.Hailey still seemed frozen. Alana gently took her arm and nudged her forward, leading her into the apartment.The apartment itself was quite nice. It was an open floor plan, and the only thing separating the kitchen area from the living area was a counter. There were three doors off the main room, one of which was slightly ajar and led to a bathroom. He guessed the other two led to bedrooms.There was a gas fireplace with fake logs along one wall and several pictures on the mantle. Prominently displayed in the center was a large picture of Hailey smiling with her arms around both Melinda and Jason. Just in front of it was a very nice plaque which said "I
