there s an investigation. I m sorry. I m going to jail if you don t help
me! Please, Carol. You re an incredible, generous person. Much
better than I could ever be. I know that you don t want to see me in
jail for a simple error in judgment. Please, Carol. Sign the papers and
I ll get you all your money back. I swear. You can have the
townhouse. You can leave this hick town and come back to where
you re happy.
Carol stepped closer and scratched Kaden between the ears. He
leaned against her leg and stopped growling for a moment.  I ve
learned a few things about myself over the past few weeks. I learned
that I have an inner bitch who needs to be let out once in a while. Go
fuck yourself, David.
He stumbled back and turned to run down the hall. He didn t
make it three steps when a large strawberry tiger leapt up from the
shadows with a snarl.

Jaxon stood at the entrance to the clinic, holding open the door for
Jake to take Carol s ex out of the building. The officer rolled his eyes
as he passed Jaxon.  I m going to take him into custody for his own
safety.
 There was a wolf and a tiger! The high-pitched tone hurt
Jaxon s ears, and the stench of human waste surrounding the man
made his eyes water.  They were going to eat me. That psychotic
bitch keeps them as pets. She made them attack me! He pointed a
shaking hand into the room behind him, but the officer s grip on his
arm kept him moving forward.
 So you said, sir, but this is Algonquin Park, not the Toronto Zoo.
We don t have tigers up here nor do we keep wolves as pets. Jake

met Jaxon s gaze, smiled at his quick nod of thanks and whispered,
 Your brother will be detailing the back of my car tomorrow.
 I ll be certain to send him over, but I expect it won t be till later.
Jake glanced over his shoulder to where Carol knelt, picking up
papers from the floor.  Understandable. When you come up for air,
then send him over.
Jaxon would have preferred to see Mr. Beuk in handcuffs, but
there was no reason, at the moment, to have him arrested. Once they
ran his information through the computer, he knew that would be
rectified. Carol repeated his confession to the police as they waited
for David to calm down from his fear-induced state.
 I don t understand legal-speak. The woman Jaxon craved as a
mate stood looking over the papers she d picked up. He slipped them
from her grasp and tossed them on the desk.  Hey, I just picked those
up.
Jaxon drew her into his embrace and laid her head on his chest as
he said,  This is much better. Sliding a hand to the small of her back,
he encouraged her to step closer so every part of her luscious body
pressed against him. The violence that threatened to explode within
him simply evaporated now that he had her in his arms safe and
sound.  Are you all right?
 Yes, I ll admit that I was more than a bit nervous near the end,
there. As soon as I heard that growl, I knew it would be all right.
 We d never let anyone hurt you. He ran his hands up and down
her back. This would be much nicer if we were both naked. She
laughed against his chest, and he looked down into her amused face.
 I said that out loud, didn t I?
 Yes, and I couldn t agree more. Her hips shifted back and forth,
pressing against his hard cock, causing it to swell from uncomfortable
to painful. Having her in their lives was a blessing he would never
take for granted. Thinking about everything that occurred for this
situation to come about made his head spin.

He looked up from his brave mate to see his brothers coming out
of the back office. Dressed, but neither of them tucked in or buttoned
up their shirts. As soon as they saw Carol wrapped in his arms, they
both rushed over.
Kaden ran his hands over her shoulders as he spoke.  Carol,
sweetheart, are you okay?
 Did he hurt you? Sloan growled low in his throat.  I knew I
should have bit him while I had the chance.
 I was going to bite him in the ass, but he pissed himself as well
when Sloan landed over him. Kaden s lips turned up in disgust.
 I love you all. She turned in Jaxon s arms to face his brothers,
her ass pressing against his aching cock.  You know that, right?
 Yes, my sweet. Kaden captured a hand and pulled her toward
him. Jaxon let her go and stepped back to lean against the desk.
Crossing his arms over his chest, he watched as Carol melted against
Kaden, caught up in his kiss.
Sloan stood behind her and stroked her back, pressing kisses
against her bare shoulders. The jealousy he feared never rose to the
surface the way it had before. Instead, Jaxon felt a bond with his
brothers that he never felt before with any other woman.
He realized then that she d dressed for them. Knowing what each
of them preferred into her choices. Whether it was a subconscious
choice or on purpose didn t matter. She was their True Mate, and he
couldn t wait for the opportunity to claim her. In all fairness, they [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
