“The lady said to let her go.” And just her luck, Bree bumped into the sheriff’s chest. “Great, you’re here again,” Bree muttered sarcastically. She was in another situation, and he was there to save her again. She wanted to bolt.Grayson smirked, making her wonder if he heard her remark.“We were just inviting her to our celebration.”Grayson said nothing, instead bared his teeth. The light glinting off his eyes seemed brighter, and the two men bowed their heads before heading back into the pub, tail between their legs.‘Such odd behavior. Who bares their teeth at people? Marina did the same thing to me. Did she expect me to bow my head?’“I could have handled that. I didn’t need your help.”“Really? Maggie would have enlisted my help, anyway. So I skipped a step.”“How did you—”“—know that you would ask Maggie for help? Everybody does. Then she comes to me.” Bree wanted to smack that smug smile off his face.“Well, thank you… again. I have to go on my way.”“Those men might follow

She frowned and shrugged it off. This was her chance to interrogate the sheriff about his plan of action for finding Bran.“If you are correct that your brother is in that forest, then we need to put together a bunch of people to go find him. It would be easier to find clues when you have more people sweeping the area.”“So let’s do it. How do we get these people?”“Hold on. I still need to check forest services and the other campgrounds if they saw him. Then we start from there.”“He was in town two weeks ago. So does that mean we start from the beginning of the trails?”“We could, but that might be pointless. Let me do my job and I’ll get back to you.”“When will that be?”“A couple of days, probably. There are a lot of areas to cover.”“But I don’t have a few days. My brother has been missing for two weeks now and I know something has happened because he never failed to call me every weekend. I’ve been hanging around the pub since yesterday and haven’t seen him since.”“Maybe he mov

‘Yes, take me against this door.’“Get inside, Brianna, before I do something we’ll both regret.” Bree opened her eyes, confused, as Grayson ground the words from between clenched teeth, his eyes shut close.‘Shit!’ Bree scrambled with the key to her room in embarrassment. She dared not look back for fear of seeing the disgust on Grayson’s face. Thankfully, one of them was thinking clearly, and Grayson stopped before she begged him to fuck her. Bree’s chest heaved in and out, unable to catch enough air. She questioned her sanity about what occurred outside her door. She had never been promiscuous before, never even exhibited any strong feelings for anyone, but every time Grayson came around, she could not help herself from throwing herself at his feet.‘Get your head out of the gutter, Brianna. Focus on Brandon.’ Brandon. She came to town to find him and not get entangled with a certain hot, muscular sheriff. If only she could get the memories of kissing Grayson out of her head. Eac

It must be a spell because he would never act in such a way around any woman.Brianna opened her eyes, and he hurriedly zipped his pants back up and scrambled to get as far from her as soon as possible.He had to be brash or he would never find the nerve to pull away because his self-control was waning fast. There was nothing in the world he’d rather do than consume every inch of Brianna, but he needed her to be on board.‘Claim her,’ Slate insisted as Grayson ran toward the bar where he left his vehicle.‘No. Get out of my head.’ Grayson fought for control, and he won.Slate, his wolf, had never been vocal about his opinions before., although always present, he was always more in the background.Grayson had been aware of his presence since he was a pup and Slate would occasionally jump into his head during decision-making as the voice of reason, but had never forced Grayson to shift or interfere with his choices. So the situation made Grayson wonder why the wolf was so attached to Br

“Give me the phone,” Grayson’s gruff voice came closer and Bree could hear shuffling on the other line, so she expelled a sigh of relief. After their encounter last night, Bree expected him to avoid talking to her at all costs. She was hazy about the details. All she knew was that she kissed Grayson, and minutes later, he left like his ass was on fire.So much for using her charms to get what she wanted.“Sheriff Walker, how can I help you, Ms. Stone?” The mere sound of his voice made her skin tingly all over. Bree felt like he was right there, whispering in her ear that it raised the hair on her neck. In order to have a proper conversation with the Sherriff Bree had to take a deep breath to steady her nerves. “Oh, good.” She swallowed. “You already know it’s me, so I—”“There’s only one tourist in town right now calling the office every day, so I assumed it was you. How can I help you?”“Remember last night—”“It’s something you should forget.” He cut her off sternly.“No! I won’t!

That morning, Grayson reported to the Sheriff’s office as if nothing had happened. He lacked sleep, thinking about his inner wolf and why Slate kept insisting Brianna was his mate. Grayson had a lot of questions, but after telling him to butt out when he was with Brianna, Slate never resurfaced, as if he did not exist without her.Just as he walked through the door, he was bombarded with the report of another animal attack, so his entire morning had been occupied by calls, questions, and site visits, pushing Brianna to the back of his mind. Still, she was never far from it, as her image popped into his mind every time he had a minute to think. Visions of her lovely smile, captivating brown eyes, or just the conversation they had the night before jumped up when he was unaware.Grayson had been satisfied with his life. He had lived in Silvercreek all his years, and he did not want to be anywhere else.It had been his dream to follow in his father’s footsteps, and he was proud of the ex

There were beady eyes everywhere the light shone, but she knew it was just the creatures of the night coming out to forage for their meals.After a few seconds, her eyes adjusted to the darkness, and she could see the silhouette of the animals she had been initially afraid of.On the GPS, it said she had walked at most 15 miles into the forest, with a steady elevation of 3000 feet. Bree was surprised the workout did not make her sweat.There was no burn in her muscles, so she thought it would be better to keep hiking, but then the darkness seemed to swallow everything in its path, and she decided it was time to set up camp. There would be more hiking for the days to come, and she had to conserve energy since she had no clue when the search would end. The plan was to hit the popular camping and hiking areas while they were busy, hoping someone had seen or encountered Brandon. But she was nowhere near the campsites or her projected targets.Bree tried not to get disheartened since it w

When the image of Bran and the connection she felt disappeared, Brianna poked around the campgrounds.She could see remnants of fire pits people used for camping, but the ashes were too dry to say if they had been lit recently.It was a popular spot, so she expected to run into someone at the site, but it was empty.Surely, she thought, they wouldn’t have heard about the animal attacks unless someone from town warned them. It made her wonder if the forest service even visited the sites to check on the campers. Sooner or later, she hoped to bump into one of them to ask about Brandon.The fatigue of the first day and the headache throbbing in her head made Bree re-think about her plans for the day. Not having the energy to move forward after having a meal, she took a quick power nap to get her strength back before heading to the next campsite.It was twilight by the time she awoke and Brianna cursed herself for sleeping too long. It would be ridiculous to walk in the dark, so she opted

‘Bran, are you there?’‘Yeah. What’s up? The honeymoon has ended, so now you want me to get rid of Gray?’‘What? No. Why? Have you scared away my exes before?’‘What? No.’‘Are you sure?’ Bree did not believe him one bit.‘So what did you call me for?’‘Do you remember the training captain at the academy?’‘Yeah, the creepy one who watched you too closely? The one I said was a serial killer or just too in love with you?’‘Bran, be serious.’‘I don’t trust him.’‘Why not?’‘There was something about him. It was like he knew something we didn’t and was biding his time.’‘Is that why you never sat with him for too long?’‘I felt like being interrogated every time we talked. Seth asked too many questions about our family.’‘Well, he’s here. He said he came here to find me because I wasn’t answering in the group chat.’‘But you never responded to those.’‘Exactly, and when I asked if he was leaving now that I’m doing well. He expressed the desire to help find you. Said he was concerned for

Wolves. The moment Seth dismounted from his motorcycle, he scented wolves around him. It was a biker’s diner/bar, and it was only normal that wolves from different packs frequented these establishments whenever they passed through a city.There was an unspoken rule among packs that passersby need not announce themselves, but people who wanted to stay the night or take part in the festivities of a certain town should seek the designated biker’s bar or 24-hour diner to declare their intention to stay and be counted into the visitor’s log.Through this system, the packs kept the peace, making werewolves accountable for their actions. Runaways and wayward rogues are brought to prison to face justice when they cause any trouble.But this only applied to small towns like Silvercreek. Bigger metropolitan cities had a completely different set of rules because the cities had more people, the rules were more lax, and the packs mingled with each other without breaking any rules.Not everyone ab

Brianna got out of the vehicle even before the truck stopped. “I know that motorcycle,” Gray heard her say before the door closed.“Cap!?!” she yelped excitedly as she entered the diner. “What are you doing here?”“Thank the heavens, Brianna, you’re here.” Seth enveloped her in a bear hug and rubbed his cheeks against the side of her head. “Tell me you’re okay.”“But I’m on leave. They approved me for a month. Are they taking it back?” She tried to push out of his embrace when she felt an arm around her waist, pulling her back.A growl near her ear told her Grayson was not happy she was hugging another man. He had pushed Seth a few steps back, but the other man regained his footing.“Brianna is my mate and you better remember that.” She looked at Grayson, perplexed that he would declare his wolf status in front of the stranger.Seth nodded and came forward, his focus on Brianna. ‘Why’d you do that?’ She asked Gray, but didn’t hear his response.“We were so worried. The team kept mess

“NO! It’s what I felt at that moment, so I said it.”“Felt? Past tense?” She crossed her arms under the breasts, and he lost his train of thought.“Feel… Brianna. I feel that way, even now.” He squeezed his eyes shut. Looking at her breasts made him want to place the globes in his mouth and suck on them until she granted him her forgiveness.“So, why did you accuse me of lying? It’s easier to just tell me the truth. I understand if it’s all too much to handle—”“It’s not—I got pissed off because the last few nights we had were very special, but then Maggie called me very early this morning to tell me that your husband came to collect you himself.”“I don’t have a husband! And you know it.”“I know. My wolf has been trying to chew me out for doubting you.”“Good job, Slate. Kick him in the balls if you can.” “Ouch!” The thought alone brought him pain. “I’m sorry for hurting you.”“You didn’t—” She looked away with her mouth pouted like a sulky child.“I did. Even I can smell the sorro
Finding Home: A Twin Shifter Romance Finding Home: 84 - Visitor
Last night, just like the past few nights, had been made of dreams and moonlight. She sometimes wondered if they would always feel the same.Everything about Grayson was perfect. He was thoughtful about giving her little tokens every time he came home. There were flowers he picked from the side of the road, a wreath he shaped out of herbs, twigs, and pinecones he found when he ran through the forest to get to her house. And then stones that had shiny things inside them he picked up when investigating another animal attack.They weren’t expensive gifts, but it was the intention behind the acts that counted. And he always brought food, knowing the appetite she had.After their first night together as a couple, Bree asked him to stay every night.She still did not believe they were fated mates, not yet, but she wanted to find out more about the attraction that happened between wolves. Or even the one between her parents.Grayson’s grandparents were also mated pairs, but they were on vac

Grayson laughed. “I can manage. Don’t worry about me.” He reached over and kissed her temple. “I’m going before I embarrass myself.”Bree reached out and held his wrist. “No. I don’t want you to go.” Her eyes swirled golden, and when a slight breeze came through the open windows, he got a whiff of her arousal.Brianna took control. Pushed him to the bed and crawled on top. Ever since she said yes to pursuing their relationship, she had been feeling more empowered. That night, she felt like all her pent-up emotions were released, giving her the chance to fully harness her newfound strength.“You are not leaving until I get what I want.” She warned.He grinned. “And I accept.” His eyes shined silver as he felt the warmth of her body touch his. Everything about her felt silky and smooth, he thought, as his hands glided over her skin.Grayson kissed her with so much tenderness Bree felt as if they were caught in a dream where everything moved in slow motion.She enjoyed the way he swirle

Outside, Bree could feel the temperature cooling down as they sipped their tea. She had ditched Grayson’s coat when she came into the house, and though she felt the cool breeze on her skin, it didn’t feel cold, thanks to the hot beverage that kept her warm.They talked about her mother, and Bree appreciated Grayson for being observant. She was bothered that there was so much of her father in her that her mother had disappeared.“Did I tell you that my parents aren’t both wolves, either?”Bree’s eyebrows narrowed. “They’re not?”“No, my mother and grandmother are both human.”“Do you think you have more werewolf or human blood?”“I’ve thought about that, and I think the werewolf blood is more dominant only because it allows me to shift and have all these exceptional abilities, but I’m still human. I have the same feelings and get hurt the same way. Why do you ask?”“Because I’m scared, there is no more of my mother left in me. I think Bran has some of her skills. But I acquired nothin

Dinner at a fine dining restaurant where food was served in different entrees, in names she could not repeat, or tastes she could not describe, was not her ideal evening. But Grayson took her out on a very nice date, so Brianna said nothing to disappoint him.They had pleasant conversations during the meal, trying to identify the items on their plate. Some of the food came in fancy little spoons, in clouds of smoke, under flavored bubbles, and so little bites that she did not have enough to savor it.They were served 15 courses and by the end of the meal; she was more tipsy than full. Her tummy grumbled after Grayson paid the bill, which embarrassed her more than anything.She did not want to appear ungrateful, but she was still hungry.“What do you say about going to the diner around the corner and getting burgers and a milkshake?” Grayson asked while ushering her to their vehicle. “I’m sorry about dinner. It was a very wonderful experience, and I bet they worked hard to come up wit
Finding Home: A Twin Shifter Romance Finding Home: 80 - Fabric
Brianna was nervous.How do you date someone you’ve slept with before? How does one step back and restart a relationship?Grayson instructed her to dress nice as they were going to dinner at a fancy place out of town, so she went to the only boutique in the area to find a pretty dress.She had been happily looking at the selections when disaster struck. Bree remembered her wallet was still missing and none of the credit card companies wanted to send her a replacement card in Silvercreek. They sent all the cards back to her address, but how would she pick them up when she was thousands of miles away?“Did you find what you’re looking for?” The lovely owner asked. They had met before when she was searching for Bran and she thought Violet had a very calming presence about her.“Well, I have a problem.”“I know. Your wallet is missing and you want that dress but don’t have money to pay with?”“How? Did Grayson tell you I was broke?” She leaned in to whisper.“No, I’m clairvoyant, plus I
