Lahat ng Kabanata ng His Regret, My Escape: Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

What the hell? As soon as Xavier was close enough to see the house and notice that the window bars were down he picked up speed, and so did his heart rate. He heard Max’s curse and realized he was thinking the same thing. Something must have happened for Rose to lower the bars!They reached their clothes and changed back into their human forms without their usual downtime. Neither spoke as they pulled on their pants and then rushed up the steps to the front door. Xavier wasn’t surprised to find it locked, shooting a desperate look at Max for him to hurry. He was in the process of reaching above the door for a key. He unlocked the door and nearly yanked it off the hinges.“Olympia will be in your room,” Max said as they both took the stairs two at a time.It was early and still dark out, so the inside of the house was gloomy. Common sense told Xavier that since the bars were down and the door was locked the women were okay, but he had to see Olympia to calm his fear that something had

"How big is Savage Hills?” Olympia asked as they drove away from Rose and Max’s. As the new veterinarian, she needed to know how much area she would be covering. Not that she would turn away an animal in need, but there might be times where she’d be called out to investigate an animal incident, and she didn’t want to overstep her boundaries unless she was called in.“Savage Hills is the whole north side of the mountain,” Xavier explained, giving her a smile. “Including the town at the base of the mountain.”“Oh.” He must be talking about the small, one-street town Olympia had driven through on her way up the mountain. She remembered thinking at the time that it had to be the world’s smallest town, but knowing what she did now, it made sense. She supposed most of the residents of Savage Hills lived, like Xavier did, throughout the forests blanketing the mountains.“So, what kind of personal items do you have back in Havendale that you need? I can send them.”“You’re taking a lot for gr

Once Xavier had picked up the scent of his brother, he knew what had killed the bald eagle. Coupled with the fact there were impressions of a wolf’s paw in the mix of mud and footprints around the bird’s cage, his first suspicion had been confirmed. He didn’t understand what Clive had hoped to gain by killing the bird unless it was to leave a message that he hadn’t left the area.Olympia had picked up on Clive’s scent, too. Her wolf’s senses were sharpening and mingling with her human instincts. Soon they would be on and intensified. He couldn’t wait for her to shift into her she-wolf for the first time. Once she accepted her fate, the rest would be easy. She would meet the elders and be officially received into the pack and as his life-mate.As far as Xavier was concerned, there wasn’t anything for Olympia to prove. The elders in any pack rarely refused the joining of an alpha and his natural-born mate. It was only upon the death of an alpha’s mate when he chose another that there wo

Olympia watched him walk around the front of the Hummer before her numb brain registered that she was alone in the cab. Just as Clive reached her side of the Hummer she quickly locked the door and then reached over and locked the driver’s side door. Maybe she could buy some time, but she had no doubt that the locked doors wouldn’t keep Clive out for long.Clive just stopped, stunned for a moment, glaring at her. “Unlock the door, bitch!” He pulled on the handle. “Unlock the fucking door!”Olympia ignored him. Soon his friend joined him. He said something that Olympia couldn’t hear, and then the two were looking around them toward the ground. Her heart fell when Clive picked up a large rock. Screaming, Olympia scooted away and ducked when he crashed the rock through the window. She jumped into the back seat, and, just as he reached through the broken window she unlocked and pushed the door open to make a run for it.She didn’t get far. His friend caught up to her and forced her back to

Before long Olympia began caressing Xavier’s chest and abdomen, marveling at the tight skin pulled over his defined muscles. Moaning with contentment, she nuzzled her nose against the side of his neck, taking in his manly scent, then lost herself in the moment by running her mouth over his skin. All at once, she wanted to devour him.Xavier drew in a harsh breath.“I wanted to give you time,” he said in a husky tone, lifting his hips. “But if you keep this up–” He shuddered when Olympia reached down between them and took hold of his cock. It was hot and hard. “Fuck, Olympia!”“I don’t need any time, Xavier. You’re everything I’ve ever wanted.” She ran her hand along the length of his erection. “You’ve given me so much.” I need you! I want you!Their mouths clashed together as they gave in to the urge to consume one another in a steamy kiss. Olympia opened her mouth so their tongues could taste and explore the heated dampness inside. Hands explored, bodies arched sensuously in an old
