“So, you haven’t given me an answer. What will it be?” Bran slides onto the bench beside Marina. They were alone in the kitchen again and as she stood up, he pulled her back down to sit.

“Why do you want to date me?”

“I think you’re special.”

“You do know that I’m an orphan and homeless, right? What’s so appealing about that?”

Brandon chuckled. “If you didn’t notice. I’m an orphan and I’m homeless, too. We are living in someone else’s house, eating someone else’s food so why not enjoy it while it lasts.”

“We’re different. You have a sister and I am alone.”

“We’re both werewolves and my sister can be your sister too. She’s nice. Not so much lately but she’ll come around.”

“You won’t like me when you learn about my past.”

“Then let’s not talk about it. Let’s make memories of our own, without all those nasty things that happened to us because we had no control over them.”

“How?” Marina looked at him, wondering if he knew what she had done.

    Marina ran from the kitchen. She didn’t mean to get overcome by lust, but whenever she was near Brandon, her brain was clouded with their nightly visits. In her dreams, Brandon called her beautiful and made her feel special, but they were just dreams that she conjured to feel less lonely. She chose Brandon because he was from out of town and knew nothing about her past.His eyes did not hold pity or disgust when he looked at her. She felt wanted when he said things that made her heart skip a beat.‘I’m beautiful,’ she smiled while lugging feed for the ducks and chickens on both shoulders.“Chick, chick, chick, chick, chickens!” Amelia called to her egg-laying pets. “Good morning! It’s time to come out.”“They missed you when you were gone.” “You think so?”“Of course, because I missed you a lot,” Marina said awkwardly.“So why didn’t you call me?”“I figured you were enjoying yourself so I left you alone. I wanted you to have some fun. Plus, I wanted you to think I was grown up enou

    “I wanted to take Marina out for a date. Where do you think we should go?” Bree gave Grayson a knowing look.The guys had their mouths hanging open. “Her?” One asked, then stopped when Marina glared at him, beating Bran to come to her rescue.“There’s a steakhouse a couple of towns over.”“Why would you go to a steakhouse when you have the best beef here at the ranch?” He jabbed the guy beside him.“Go to the Italian place in Greenville, they make handmade pasta,” Gran interjects.“Yes, that place is nice. It gave me an excuse to hold your gran close when we danced.”‘Don’t do it. I will never forgive you.’ Marina’s voice conveyed in his head.‘Why not? I want everyone to know you and I are dating.’‘Please don’t do this.’‘You are mine and they better know it.’“It is decided then. So Marina, will you go out with me?” Bran asks with a mischievous twinkle in his eye.“Go ahead.” Gran chides. “The man has spoken. Will you leave him hanging?” The dinner guests went silent, eager to hear

    Bran was in the shadows listening to their conversation, so when Marina stepped out to head to the barracks, he surprised her by appearing out of nowhere.“Is that true?” He asked.“What is true?” Marina feigned ignorance.“That you were in love with him before?” She walked away before speaking.“It was a childhood crush. He was the only handsome guy in town, so it was only right that every girl in this area was infatuated with him.”“And now?”“Now…” She looked over at Bran and smirked. “I have to check my options. Let me look at your face and check if you’re handsome enough.”Bran grabbed her arm and pulled her to his chest. “Are looks really that important?” He asked while tipping up her chin. He wanted to stare into her eyes while she gave her answer.“Yes... No...”“Are you saying you’d settle because there’s no one else but me?” Marina raised her brow as if insulted.“I have standards.”“And I’m below that?” Brandon wasn’t vain. He had no delusions he was handsome but didn’t thi

    The couple awoke in the dark at the same time, clothes covering their bodies, and sweat running down their backs. They were back at the barracks on the bed they slept in, arms wrapped around each other.The dream had been so real he felt the slickness when their naked bodies glided against each other. He was having an erotic dream about Marina and he wondered if he walked into her dream or if he dragged her into his.Bran looked into Marina’s eyes as she rubbed their legs together, noticing they were clouded. Was she still asleep? Should he wake her up?He sniffed the air and scented her arousal. It was a big possibility that they had just shared every part of his sexually charged dream.‘What were you dreaming about?’ He touched the tip of their noses together and asked through their link. Her answer would mean she was awake.Marina shook her head. She had to erase the image of Bran covering her with his naked body. The dream was too racy to be shared.‘You were there.’ He captured h

    The answer was yes. She wanted to have sex with Bran, to risk the wrath of their alpha and his mate, to try her chance at happiness. If she would get exiled, why not for her happiness? But now was not the right time and place, not at the barracks, where it felt impersonal and hurried.‘Let’s go on a date first, like you suggested.’ Brandon groaned silently against her neck, but the rumble in his chest told her how disappointed he felt.‘Then we can do all this and more after the… third date?’‘Third date?’ He whined through their link, yet his hand never stopped moving.‘Isn’t that the norm?’‘How about I show you what I can do with my mouth now?’‘Oh…’ How was she supposed to say no when his hands alone brought her to her knees? ‘I have no doubt it’ll be—aghhh…good—aghhh… Brandon, don’t stop.’ Marina fused their lips and clutched his hair as the feeling in her core intensified. There was no sound anyone could hear, but Bran could feel what she did through their link. She was about t

    “Bree—help—Silver—having dreams—wolves—out of time—don’t come.”Beep! The answering machine recorded the message just as Bree opened the door. The key always stuck, and she always thought of fixing it but never had the time.Her heart sank when the last beeping sound signaled that the person on the other line had dropped the call. She heard Bran’s voice on the other side of the door as she wrangled with the stubborn lock.He never called during the week, knowing she was at work, so she felt disappointed that she made a last-minute decision to pass by the grocery store instead of heading straight home.Bree tried to call the number back by dialing *69 but it gave her the busy dial tone. It had been a couple of weeks since they last spoke and not having her brother nearby for more than half the year got her concerned. And after the puzzling message Bran left on the machine, she felt more anxious. Why would he ask for help, and then tell her not to come? He had been in trouble before, b

    Days after Bree got that nagging feeling that something significant was about to happen in their lives, she made time to confront him.“What is happening, Bran? Why now? Why are you leaving? Aren’t you happy here with me?” She stood to level their stare, but he had grown more than a foot taller in just a year, making it hard to plead her case when he looked down on her.“I just want to find out who I am, Bree. See if I can do this on my own.” Bran stood by the bookcase in the living room, picking at the well-worn books on the shelf, ignoring her, so she sat back down.“Of course, you can do anything,” she said encouragingly. But then tried to pull at his heartstrings. “But why now? I’ll have no one.”He raised a brow. They were adults, and Bree had been always independent since they were kids. So he knew this was an attempt to make him stay.“Because we’ve always talked about this hiking trip with Mom and Dad, remember? And it’s time to conquer the great outdoors.”“I remember, but tha

    “Bran, is it too late to convince you not to leave?” Brianna asked as she picked on the straps of his backpack. She was still hugging him and wouldn’t let go. They were at the airport and Bree took the day off to drop him off before his big adventure.“Bree, I’m just a few states over.” Brandon pushed her off his chest a few inches so he could see her face, but she had her head bent because she did not want him to see the tears in her eyes. He grimaced and kissed her forehead. “You can always hop on the plane and see me if you want.”He hugged her again, making her tear up more.“I know that. I guess I just don’t like being left behind.” She mumbled.“I’ll be back in six months and then you’ll tire of having me around the house. Enjoy your time without me. Grab a boyfriend or two while I’m gone.”Bree snickered. “Sure, let me flirt with the hot police officers while I’m training. That will do me good.”“As long as you like them, then I’m okay with that. Don’t let them intimidate you i

    That evening, Marina’s dreams were intense. The shadow figure had come to her that night with the passion of a lover back from a long absence.“I want you, Marina. You will be mine,” he said before covering her naked body with his. At least in her dreams, she could do what she wanted without consequences. So she gave in and surrendered her inhibitions to the wind.Brandon was an ardent lover, paying attention to every part of her body that made her moan. She had long since forgotten that when she first dreamed of Brandon, he’d always be between her thighs licking her pussy until she screamed in pleasure.How could she hold back when it was only in her dreams that she felt satisfied?“Marina! Enough of that!”Wanting her dream to continue, she ignored the knock on the wall. She was near climax and didn’t want to stop.“Yes, yes…” she moaned, as her body succumbed to the pleasure of Brandon’s mouth on her mound. His tongue licked and teased her clit while his finger delved deeper and t

    “There you are.” Sean appeared after a few awkward minutes and saw Bran first. Then, when he came into the stall, it surprised him to see Marina in the corner. “Both of you.”He looked outside and wondered how Bran and Marina appeared in the stall when he checked the entire stable, bedding storage, and the surrounding areas, but never found them. Something felt off, but he kept his mouth shut, afraid Marina would cut his head off.“Is this the last stall, Marina, or do you guys need help?” He asked when no one acknowledged his presence.“I’m here to do her bidding. She just needs to instruct me what to do,” Bran said and Marina’s ears perked up with the double meaning.“Do the other stalls. I have this almost done.” She instructed without looking at Sean, afraid that her flushed face and kiss-swollen lips would betray what they did.“Okay, let’s go, buddy,” Sean grabs Bran by the shoulders, dragging him and the rake alongside him as they check the next stall.“What’s with the tension

    “Let me prove it.” Their lips touched, and Marina moaned. It was far different from all the kisses they’d shared before. Those were all in her dreams, and nothing prepared her for the real thing.Soft lips peppered her with kisses as his insistent tongue drew her lips apart. Marina breathed in and she could taste the mint he was chewing on earlier. Brandon nibbled on her lips and Marina felt her legs weaken she had to grab his neck for support. She was heady with desire and didn’t even notice he lifted her from the ground until her back hit the wall. Marina wrapped her legs around Brandon’s waist and as their pelvis touched, she could feel the bulge in his pants. Were they moving too fast? Or was this normal speed? She was not sure what the norm was anymore because being with Bran was all she thought about. All he needed to do was utter the words, and she would willingly give up her morals.She saved herself for Grayson all those years by not sleeping with anyone, but having Brando
