werewolf-romance

Come with me if you want to live._ Neva stared at the enormous hand the stranger extended her. Her gaze followed the black leather-clad arm up to the massive shoulders, the strong jaw, and the thick lock of wavy blonde hair hanging over his dark glasses. __ou have so got to be kidding me,_ she said.He shrugged. __ always wanted to say that line. Except I__ not kidding.

If she expected me to apologize she was going to be sorely disappointed.I__ never be sorry for kissing her.

I__ no werewolf, and I__ tired of hearing the word. I__ a Changeling, okay? And either you trust me or we call it quits right here._ It was Travis__ turn to fold his arms, as if he was daring her to convince him.

Shit. Shit. Shit. He__ known he couldn__ save her. He__ known he was too far away. Knowing didn__ prevent the bare-knuckled punch to his heart, though.

I really hate you."It was loud and clear in his brain. "Your first words. How sweet." "Get out of my head. You__e not invited.""This is how Changelings communicate as wolves. Get used to it." He picked his way through the bushes to get closer to her _ although he was prepared to dodge if she decided to bite him again. "Are you okay?""My head hurts. No thanks to you.""Yeah, well my ass hurts. No thanks to you.

Maybe she__ remember him as a pain in the ass. Or maybe, he hoped most of all, that she__ remember what she told him: __ou can be a real jerk sometimes, but you__e decent._ As epitaphs went, it wasn__ bad.

Travis ignored her protests as he pulled his cell phone from his pocket, thankful anew for that little Changeling quirk that allowed him to retain his clothes and everything that was within his aura each time he shifted. Christ, if life was like the movies, he__ end up naked and penniless every damn time he ran as a wolf. No wonder Hollywood werewolves were insane with rage. Probably pissed off at the sheer inconvenience of their lives.

No room in my world for drama, and the last thing I needed was more death. This beautiful woman would bring me both.

A shard of glass cut my belly as I slid into the battered SUV, but I managed to keep the family jewels intact. I__ be counting every small victory tonight.

His barely there smile warmed me. __ou try really hard to hide behind that Ice Queen disguise, but that__ not who I see. I see a girl who had to grow up fast, and a mom who would sacrifice everything for her son. You__e beautiful, Taryn, inside and out, and I want to get to know the woman you keep hidden away._ He lowered his hand and my body ached at the loss. __f you__e willing, I__l walk through the fire with you.

My pulse pounded in my ears, heat smoldering deep in my belly. I__ never been so tempted. __his is a dangerous game.

Once we were on the road, I glanced at my passenger. __f you__e got any ideas about how I can get this shit storm cleared up, I__ all ears.__ank snorted, sneezed, and lay down on the bench seat, plopping his head on my leg. I rested my hand on his back, eyes glued to the winding two-lane highway. __eah, I don__ have a goddamn clue either.

She stepped back, staring up into my eyes. __ou__e given me hope._ She ran her hand up my chest. __ don__ know how to thank you for that.__ grinned. __ou can start by taking my calls.

Once a month, for one evening, we are free to wear our natural skins. We are on the outside as we are internally.

Lifting his head, he whispered against her wet, throbbing lips, __oo much?_ Wasn__ that sweet, Consider even. But oh, hell no. She gasped, __ot enough.

Just when I was coping with the idea that I__ necked with a werewolf,_ she muttered. __ust when I was beginning to flirt with the idea of possibly_ possibly inviting sex with a werewolf. I__ trying to imagine how I would tell this story to my best friend. I think it would go something like this: See, I__e never seen him in daylight. He__ just this werewolf guy._ Beside her, he had stiffened. Very quietly, he said, __ex?

Giving her a slow, coaxing smile that turned the heat in the room up by a thousand degrees, he stroked her lips with the balls of his thumbs as he murmured, __an we get back to talking about possibly inviting that werewolf for sex?

You__e not in this alone anymore. I__ not going anywhere, and if you__l let me, I__e got broad shoulders for you to lean on whenever you need me.
