All Chapters of She's Not For You: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

ANNA The night is still. A slight breeze blows my black fur as I sniff the air. My amber eyes shimmer in the dark. I stand at the edge of a clearing on the border of my pack's territory, Falcon Ridge. It's not huge, but it's not small either. On the other side of the imaginary line, I stand in front of, sits White Rock. An alliance pack, smaller numbers, but its members are tough. I scan the tree line with my wolf ears perked. Movement. A dark figure on four legs breaches the trees and trots toward me. As it gets closer, I recognize him. Michael. The border patroller for this area between our two towns. His large brown and grey wolf approaches and stands almost at attention. A wind gust blows and swirls around him as he shifts. His naked form now crouched and he rises. "Anna." Wind gusts blow and I shift. Rising to meet his face. We both stand on either side of the border. Our naked bodies dimly lit in the moonlight. I nod. "Michael." He

ANNA "What's up, bitches?"  I stroll into the station with my red motorcycle jacket slung over my shoulder, my other hand in the pocket of my red leather boot cuts and sporting a white t-shirt.  I have a huge smile on my face.  I love being me.The station is buzzing with day shift and night shift patrollers exchanging reports for shift change."Hey, Anna."  Could be heard around the room.I walk down the aisle and park my ass on Greg's desk.  Three desks from the back where Drake's office is.  Greg side eyes me up and down then pulls back his chair, leaning back and folding his arms.  "Damn, Anna.  When are you going to let me make an honest woman out of you?"I lean in.  "Not in this lifetime, sweetcheeks."  I smile.  "How was the border?""You covering for Dea tonight?"  He raised a brow.I nod.He pulled out a report and handed it to me.&

MICHAEL Ok.  Can I start by saying, I know I'm being used.  At first, I didn't care.  I mean, who wouldn't want a hot, bad ass chick coming to you for the occasional hook up.  If you're any kind of red blooded male wolf, you'd be crazy to say no.When I met Anna 5 years ago, I had no idea what I was getting myself into.  She was sexy as hell, driven and has no problem saying what's on her mind.  That in itself, drove me crazy.We agreed to keep it casual.  No commitments.  Just hook up when the need arises, but walk away when the deed was done.  And for years, it worked.  But, somewhere along the line, every time I woke up and she was gone.  Every time she'd walk away with her 'See ya later, tiger.' My heart dropped.  I didn't want her to leave.  I want to hold her.  Wake her up with kisses.  Cook breakfast while I gaze at her in one of my shirts.

RIVER The look in Anna's eyes, as Karver jammed the barrel of his gun into my temple, told me that under her crass, rough exterior, there was a pain she kept well hidden. A wound so deep, you'd think it would impossible to fix. After I went to the hospital, she came by.  Lectured me about being stupid and that I shouldn't have put myself in that position.  I agree it was dumb, but I couldn't let her face Karver alone. Even as she lectured me, though, I felt she wasn't actually talking to me.  It felt like she was talking to someone else.  I had to find out who. When I went to her house, I wasn't expecting to have the conversation we had.   Karver killed her lover.  The same way he was going to kill me.  I was shocked, but not surprised.  It explained everything I saw in her face that night. After our emotional exchange on the swing, I felt I was delving into the real Anna.  The

RIVERI check in with my superior who tells me that I'm to report to the recruitment center.Ok.  It's weird, since I'm not a team leader and haven't haven't been involved with training at all.I head to Bartleys office.  I knock on the door and wait."Come."  I hear from inside.I open the door and step in.  "Reporting for duty, sir."  I stand at his desk at attention.Bartley smiles and stands.  "At ease."  I relax.  "Blake.  I'm glad to see you.  I didn't think Oakley would hand you over when I put in the request."I looked at him confused.  "Request, sir?"He walked over and put a hand on my shoulder.  "Son.  What you did during the Karver operation was outstanding.  Organizing those teams and assisting border to bring this badass down....just what we need down here."I looked at him.  "Sir, I'm not sure I understand.
