Third Person POV “Why don’t we go find Ethan?” Ryan asks, turning toward Fiona. Only, she’s not there anymore. She’d been there just a second ago, but when he looks around, Ryan finds no trace of the woman he’s supposed to be protecting. A direct order from his Alpha, and he failed. It wasn’t
FionaWhen I opened my husband’s office door, I find Jack and my stepsister, Jessica, locked together in a passionate kiss. The scene hit me like a truck. What the hell is going on?I always thought Jessica was a good girl. She’d stood by me during the hardest time of my life when my mother died, an
EthanAs we drive to my house, I glance at the woman, remembering when I’d first seen her.I’d scented her the moment she walked in. A light floral and vanilla scent that immediately had my wolf’s attention. A delicious, strong scent that had me looking her way as well.“Talk to her,” my wolf urged,
Fiona“He may be able to help, since he clearly likes you…” she trails off, then smirks, “And I still think it’s insane that he’s in love with you.”“Love?” I laugh, surprised. “Isla, he’s toying with me. Another one-night stand to forget about,” I tell her, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear as
FionaDucking my head, I break eye contact with Ethan. I can’t let him sway me again, even if my body craves his touch. God. How can a couple of seconds of eye contact have me wanting to curl back up in bed with the man?I shake off the connection I feel to him. He’d completely ignored my need for h
Fiona“I wasn’t flirting with men all night, Ethan. I was looking for a lawyer to file a lawsuit against my husband,” I tell Ethan. The fear of what just happened still covers me, but with him here, I feel better. Even though he’s acting like a complete bastard. “Is this really the only way to fin
FionaThe arrogance fades from Jack’s eyes as he watches Ethan. Shock completely takes over. No doubt he was thinking of how I’d slept with Ethan. It would come as a surprise to him since it’s out of my character.The longer he watches us, the paler Jack’s face becomes until he’s swallowing audibly
Soon, I’m standing before the suite and pulling the keycard out. Before I can stop myself, I swipe the card and enter the room. Nerves eat at me as I walk through the entrance, wondering if we’ll be sleeping together immediately.He had seemed insistent when he gave me the key.“Make sure the papers

Fiona The final seconds tick by on the board. Fans scream. I scream. “Run, Ethan! You can do it!” I shout, watching on the edge of the platform. I lean over the rail, my heart pounding, as he runs down the field. He spins and dodges an oncoming player, skillfully keeping the ball away from t
Fiona The tension slowly melted off Ethan as we talked, but it came back too quickly, making him stand straighter as he took two steps away from me. There’s so much he hasn’t told me, and so much that I didn’t realize he was dealing with. I have no idea how to help him, so I just pull him back i
And it was still not enough, it seems. She still found a way to worm her way into my life. “Are there a lot of children without families in the West?” She asks, her eyebrows pulling together in concern. I shake my head. “It’s hard to explain and more than I can get into right now, but there ha
Ethan Her lips slam onto mine, tasting of strawberries and cream. She snakes her arms around my neck, arching into me, and I nearly come undone. For a few seconds, there’s nothing but Fiona as our lips move together. Her touch. Her scent. Her taste. Everything about her sends a sense of calm
“Are you okay, Fiona?” He asks again, letting his hands rest on my thighs. I flinch at the touch which makes him pull back. His eyes flash to that slightly yellow color as he growls again and steps back. He holds his hands up, and I nod silently, unsure what to say. “No, tell me. Give me the wor
Fiona I claw at the guard’s arm, making him drop my hair and swear. Small trails of blood run down his forearm, sending a little sliver of accomplishment through me. I’m not a weak little girl, and I won’t let him get away with trying to assault me. “You little whore,” Ethan’s ex screeches. I tu
Fiona Everything in me fights against her words. She has to be lying, my heart tells me. Ethan didn’t want to have dinner together for the past two nights, my head argues. He wouldn’t do that to us, my heart says. He’s goes off on his own a lot at night, my head adds. And he doesn’t tell u
Fiona After Mr. Adair left, Ethan and I worked for the next few hours until he left to get ready for the soccer game tonight. He’d told me Ryan would meet me at the stadium to help me find my seats and to keep me safe while I’m there. I found the statement strange, wondering how much danger I co
