Keyah licked her suddenly dry lips. Aaron was playing dirty. Sparks were erupting over her skin wherever Aaron touched her. She shouldn’t have made that stupid bet; she didn’t trust herself not to kiss him before the night was over.

And that question about her fated mate–she had almost shared her heart’s deepest fear with him. It wouldn’t do at all. Catching feelings for Aaron, getting friendly with him, thinking of him as her confidant was wrong on so many levels. For one thing, there was certainly a fated mate for him. If she got in the way, it would make everything that much more complicated. One of them would be heartbroken at the end of it, and it wasn’t going to be Aaron.

But she wasn’t worried about that, she told herself confidently. The only feeling Aaron induced in her other than lust was extreme annoyance.

Keyah jerked her hand away and finished the rest of her meal in record time.

“You know what? Let’s just start the road trip. Like you said, there’s plenty of time to get

    Aaron swung his legs around the seat and stood leaning against his motorcycle, his eyes on Keyah. He crooked a finger in her direction, beckoning her to come to him.Keyah’s blood went very hot and really cold. Her legs felt like jelly as she took one step toward him, then another. Her heart was beating against her ribs like a drum. Thump, thump, thump.She was looking forward to kissing him as much as she was dreading it. Despite dragging her feet, she closed the short distance between them in a few short seconds.Aaron pushed himself upright and put one hand on her waist. With his other hand, he cupped her chin.When they were standing toe-to-toe like they were now, he dwarfed her. From her purely bookish knowledge about werewolves, Keyah knew she was well below average height, even for halflings. Although, in her wolf form, she was larger than she should have been. Was it because she was a Silver Wolf? She didn’t know, and hated that she didn’t know. She would know these things if

    Two days later, the incessant honking of a car horn woke Aaron up. Cursing, he sat up in bed, naked. Opening one bleary eye, he reached for his phone. It wasn’t there.Of course. The events of last night came flooding into his consciousness. He moved the jaw from side to side, checking if the fracture had healed. Thanks to his wolf genes, it had.Grabbing the digital clock on the nightstand, he tried to focus. Six am. Fucking six am. Who the hell was it? It felt like he’d been asleep for just two minutes. He’d maul the bastards making the ruckus. After the night he’d had, he was in no mood for this nonsense.Pushing himself to his feet, he walked to the window overlooking the street and pushed the curtains aside.A ruby red Prius. Keyah.His mood improved, but only very slightly. Walking to the front door, he opened it and stepped out on the porch, not caring he was naked. Keyah apparently did.“What are you doing? Why aren’t you dressed?”One corner of his mouth lifted up as he stood

    Keyah studied Aaron from the corner of her eye. It was obvious he’d gotten into a fight last night. Because wolves healed fast, the only evidence of the rough night he’d had was the puffiness under his eyes. Not just the puffiness; there were shadows in his eyes today. The sparkle was missing.“Well?” she prompted.He sighed, thumping his head against the headrest before turning his head toward the road. This early in the morning, the weather was quite pleasant, with a gentle, cool breeze blowing. It stirred up the sandy dust too, but they had chosen to ride with the top down. There was something freeing about being on the road with the wind whipping your hair.When Aaron had appeared the second time at his front door, wearing a black T-shirt and dark blue denims, a sports jacket folded over one arm and a duffel bag slung over his shoulder, looking all scruffy and wild, Keyah’s mouth had gone dry. What was it about him that made her lust spike?But then, when she’d seen him from up cl

    Aaron’s fingers had a mind of their own. They were drifting up and down the soft, soft skin of Keyah’s bare shoulders. A pulse throbbed erratically at the base of her neck. His canines lengthened involuntarily, the primal urge to sink his teeth into her soft flesh nearly overwhelming him. He had begun to touch Keyah simply to distract her and steer the conversation into less dangerous waters. She was turned on as hell, and so was he. With tremendous effort, he managed to pull his fingers away.When the connection was severed, he felt the loss acutely. He wanted more of Keyah, much more than was wise.The ensuing silence was awkward; as if both of them were trying to gain a semblance of control over their senses. From the corner of his eye, he saw Keyah take deep breaths. It made him feel better to know she was as affected as him. The heady scents of their combined arousal was making him lightheaded.These intense feelings were dangerous.Aaron tried not to brood. The encounter with th

    “I’ll resume the story once we’re on the move,” Keyah said, heading for her car.“Let me drive,” Aaron said, blocking her way, reaching for her keys. Keyah held them out of his reach and elbowed him out of the way as she sat in the driver’s seat.“In your dreams.”Keyah saw Aaron suppress a smile. “I’m not used to riding shotgun.”Keyah rolled her eyes, although she was sure there was a subtext here. She was sure he meant he wasn’t used to bending to others’ will since he was an alpha. “You better get used to it. There’s no way I’m going to let you touch my baby.”Aaron grinned, and although he didn’t say the infernal words, she heard them loud and clear.‘Wanna bet?’.Keyah’s lips twitched.“We’ll see,” Aaron said instead. “So, what happened next? With your mom and dad?”They were on the road again.Keyah looked at Aaron. His eyes were eager, and the longing in them was unmistakable. He was a romantic, no matter how much he pretended not to be. The longing made Keyah curious. Hadn’t

    Keyah stole a glance at Aaron. He had gone unusually silent after the revelation she made about not having shifted for nearly a decade. Despite not living with a pack, she knew it was unusual.“We are taking a slight detour,” she said to break the silence.“Where are we going?”“Palmio Waters. There’s something I need to pick up.”“Okay.” Aaron fiddled with the music system. Apparently, that was the end of the conversation. Keyah let out a frustrated breath. She had been dropping hints about this mysterious thing she needed to pick up, but he refused to take the bait. Either he was still stunned by her revelation, or he was on to her. He knew she wanted him to ask, and so he was refusing to ask just to push her buttons.So much for piquing his curiosity.Palmio Waters was midway between Rockedge, the town where Aaron had exiled himself, and Las Vegas. It was a shifter town, one her dad had apparently frequented.Keyah took the exit toward Palmio Waterss. Like most shifter towns, there

    Spending a night under the stars was easier said than done. They had scoured the entire town, trying to find a relatively safe place to park the car and spend the night. Finally, they had decided to park on the outskirts, on the far side of the checkpoint.Next, they set about buying some essentials. Or at least, they tried to. The people in Palmio Waters were certainly living in a different century. They hadn’t heard of a butane stove or packaged food. Since the night would get chilly, they bought some firewood and matches from a store that only sold firewood.When Keyah and Aaron had asked where they could buy some food, they had been directed to the local butcher’s. Then they remembered the drive-through fast food joint that served as the checkpoint, but quickly found out that the fast-food joint served no food. It was just a front. Humans who ventured to the checkpoint instantly forgot why they had ended up there in the first place, and the shifters simply drove through; so there

    Keyah fanned her face, watching Aaron’s retreating back. Her heated cheeks had nothing to do with the fire blazing in front of her. While his little strip tease had set her on fire, seeing him in his wolf form had nearly made her swoon. He was breathtakingly gorgeous. She had never felt less in control of her wolf.How was she ever going to resist him?Sighing, she chewed on her protein bar. While she had never spent a night alone in a shifter town on a full moon night before, she had stayed close to one, and despite locking herself in her room, the need to shift had been greater than ever that night. In the end, only one thing had worked to keep her mind off things.Keyah suppressed a shudder as she threw the wrapper of the protein bar away into a trash bag and laid down on the soft sand, looking at the sky. The first stars were beginning to appear. Nights in the desert were spectacular as there was no artificial source of light for miles. Even in the town, all lights had been turned

    Aaron’s heart stilled in his chest when he heard Keyah’s faint whisper. She never wanted to be rid of him!She loved him. Keyah loved him! While she hadn’t said it outright, Aaron knew without a smidge of doubt her feelings for him were as real as his feelings for her.Aaron wanted to scoop her into his arms, lift her up in the air, and twirl her round and round while telling her how much he loved her. A warm glow spread inside him.His wolf purred inside him and whispered the words: ‘Our mate.’The words ‘I love you, Keyah’, were on the tip of his tongue. Before he could say anything, she went rigid in his arms, as if sensing what he was about to do. Freeing herself from his embrace with a frantic urgency, she got to her feet and walked toward the balcony with the terrific view of the mountains. Aaron followed her. Why did she shut him down so quickly whenever he was on the verge of opening his heart to her? He wanted to stand beside her. Recognizing she needed space, he stood lean

    Aaron had kept his hands off her for the rest of the day, which should have made her feel relieved, but instead, Keyah felt disappointed.She had stepped out of the bathroom only once he had promised he would keep his hands to himself. And true to his word, he had. It was disappointing. She should be grateful, she told herself. If he did put his hands on her, there was no way she’d be able to resist him yet again.The effects of the potion had long abated; and while the aggression had lessened considerably, her lust for Aaron hadn’t gone down even one tiny bit. Keyah had a feeling it had nothing to do with the potion. Her lust for him would never lessen, not after knowing she loved him.If Becky hadn’t interrupted them at the right moment, they would have fucked for sure. And then where would that leave her? Making love to Aaron was a one-way street. There would be no going back from there. If they made love, he would know for sure, even if she refused to say the words, that she loved

    After the blow job, Aaron was feeling more turned on than ever. His horniness, instead of abating, was at its peak. Thanks to the werewolf physiology, he was hard again as well, his refractory period being mere seconds. And with his hands and legs suddenly free, he lunged toward Keyah, trapping her beneath him.He had never come all over a woman’s mouth before. He should feel embarrassed for losing control like that, but all he felt was terribly possessive. Why did his cum look so mind numbingly sexy on Keyah? He had marked her as his with this act. She belonged to him, whether she was ready to accept it yet or not. She’s our soul mate, his wolf whispered from inside him. And this time, Aaron didn’t object. He knew what his wolf said was true. Aaron realized he’d known it since the moment he had seen her for the very first time, but had chosen to ignore it.As Aaron’s thigh held her in place, the tip of his cock touched her pussy lips.Keyah’s eyes widened. There was no hint of doubt

    Keyah watched Aaron’s retreating back as she sank into the soft pillows. He had a fine, fine ass. As the image of his ass with her teeth marks on it formed in her mind, it brought a flood of color to her cheeks, but at the same time, she really, really wanted to bite his ass again. She wanted to bite him all over, leave marks on him, mark him as hers. She wanted to run her tongue all over the gorgeous ridges and planes of his hard, muscular body. Other than the few tattoos on his arms, he had one right at the base of his spine. How come she hadn’t noticed it before? Perhaps because the last time she had seen him naked, her brain had been fried by the twin assault of the shifter pheromones in the air, and her uncontrolled lust. She vowed to ask him about all his tattoos.It should have embarrassed her mightily when Aaron walked in on her with her fingers buried in her pussy, but it hadn’t. Well it had, but just a little bit. Was it the potion that made her feel wanton? Or had she achi

    Aaron slowly tried to back away, but collided against the doorjamb. Keyah’s eyes flew to him.“Aaron,” she whispered, her eyes dark. And although a hint of color tinged her cheeks, she didn’t close her legs or remove her hand from her breast.“Sorry, I didn’t know… I’ll give you some privacy,” he said, turning on his heel.“No. Wait.” Keyah’s voice was hoarse and thick. “Be with me. I’m trying but it’s not enough.”If she asked him to touch her, he’d be a goner. His cock would be buried inside her in minutes, irrespective of the promise. “If I touch you, I won’t be responsible for my actions.”Acute lust coursed through his blood, making his heart pound. It seemed like all the horniness he had worked off after his run was now back with a vengeance. He clutched the bundle of basil tighter, hoping to regain a semblance of control.“I’m not asking you to touch me. My fingers just aren’t doing the job. Make me come without touching me. Tell me all the things you want to do to me. Talk dir

    “Breakfast will be served everyday in the cafe downstairs between eight am and ten am. The bathroom’s through here. I’m sorry we give you a room with twin beds,” Becky apologized, twisting her hands.Aaron wished the hare-woman would leave already. She had a tendency to ramble, and she had apologized ten times on the way up to the room. He knew he’d say something rude if he spoke, so he walked to the Juliet balcony attached to the room. At least, the view was stupendous. From here, he could see both the lake and the Direwolf Mountain.Becky was still talking, telling Keyah all about how she had inherited the villa from her great-grandmother and turned into a B and B, following a life-long dream. They were a little short-staffed today, she explained. Aaron wanted to shout–we fucking don’t care. Leave!But the only thing stopping him from pinning Keyah against the queen-sized bed and ripping off her clothes was Becky’s presence. So in a way, Becky was probably doing him a favor by linge

    Keyah read the text, feeling perplexed. She glanced at Aaron, and he was studying her intently, taking deep inhales.Keyah now knew why he did that. With the potion, her senses were heightened. His natural scent permeated her nostrils, trying to envelope her brain in a fog of desire. If she let it, it would cloud her senses completely.Shaking her head, she forced herself to read the text out loud. “Tara says: ‘you can alter your scent and throw those goons off your track. Just chew on some basil before taking the potion.’ How the fuck did she know?”Keyah banged her fist against the dashboard, suddenly needing to vent her frustration. Now she knew how Aaron had felt. When her fist connected with the dashboard, she was horrified. Her car! Her poor car! How could she ill-treat it?Aaron growled low in his throat, probably feeling triggered by her aggression.Fuck, it was going to be difficult. Keyah looked at the lake again, trying to calm her mind. “Let’s find an auto repair shop. We

    “Keyah?”When Aaron gently shook her shoulders, she jerked, suddenly coming awake. She had passed out. When had she passed out? She had only closed her eyes for a minute; it had still been dark out. Now, the sun was high up in the sky.Sitting up, she rubbed a hand over her face. After they had fueled up and left Fanny Pack, Keyah had been at the wheel until they crossed the Direwolf Mountains. The paved road ended soon after, and Keyah had begun to feel her eyes close. Since she knew better than to stubbornly stay at the wheel when feeling sleepy, she’d asked Aaron to take over, promising to relieve him after she’d had a few minutes of shut-eye.Well, it had certainly been more than a few minutes.“What time is it? Why didn’t you wake me up? Were we followed? Did we cross the streams?”Aaron grinned. How could he look so handsome despite not having slept a wink? She was sure she looked like a racoon with purple circles under her eyes despite having slept for a few hours.“You went fr

    Aaron got out of the car and stretched his legs, his face upturned, looking at the star-studded sky, trying to feel a sense of calm under the ocean of stars. Ever since he had kissed Keyah earlier, his feelings were all over the place. He couldn’t make sense of anything.When Keyah had asked him if he believed in destiny, he was sure she was hinting they were fated mates, but when she laughed off his suggestion, it hurt. Which was ridiculous. He knew they weren’t fated mates. They couldn’t be. His fated mate couldn’t be a Silver Wolf. If the circumstances had been different, if Keyah had been raised by her pack, she wouldn’t even have come into Aaron’s life. The only reason they had met was because she wanted revenge.But circumstances aren’t different. She found you, the one wolf who can see the Boulder Mountain. If anything, it proves she is your fated mate. She found you against all odds, his wolf argued from inside him.Aaron shook his head, not having a counter argument. His wolf
