she said. She watched as the two men stared at her. One was a vampire and the other one had a wolf inside him. The wolf’s eyes narrowed, his nostrils flared, smelling her scent. She stopped—her eyes were filled with fear. Her body went rigid as she searched for an exit.
Jonas could see the deer in headlights look. He had seen it many times when he hunted in wolf form. The deer would stop as fear raked over them, disenabling them to move. This was the same look the woman had. He felt sorry for her as she struggled with what to do. She was beautiful without little makeup and long brown hair. Jonas knew at that moment she was his mate. Nobody had ever smelled like her or made his body react the way she did. She didn’t speak one word to him and he already knew he wouldn’t be able to stop wanting her. Her fear brought him out of the haze he was in. All he wanted to do was get her to love him, but the anguish she was feeling made him stop from running over to her.
Reece listened as his mate whispered, “Vampire.” He could tell she was about to bolt from the room when Ash rushed to her side. His body reacted to her and all he wanted to do was dive in deep and stay there forever. He could smell her blood from across the room. It was a heavenly scent that made him stand up. He was going to run over to her but the look of fear in her eyes stopped him. Her eyes undid him as they stared at him. She looked terrified and when she said ‘Vampire’, he could tell now that the vampires were after her. The thought of anyone touching her or making her run made him want to kill. She was beautiful and all his. Trying to get control of his emotions, Reece shook with anger.
Ash waved her hands in front of River trying to get her attention. River was focused on Reece. “Listen…he is a good vampire not a bad one. Trust me please.”
River ’s heart was about to burst out of her chest it was beating so fast. She looked up at Ash and couldn’t seem to catch her breath. She watched the vampire as stood there. Scared that she had fell into another trap. Her breathing became erratic. Magic swelled in the air as her face paled, her eyes widened, trying to suck in more air.
Everyone could tell that River wasn ’t just a human. She was something special and different. She wasn’t a witch but she did possess magic of some kind. They couldn’t figure it out yet what she was.
All Jonas and Reece could do was stare at River. They didn ’t want to scare her. Neither one of them realized the other was her mate too. They were too involve with watching her to realize what was going on with each other.
Placing her hands on her arm, Ash tried to calm the girl down before she hyperventilate d and passed out again. “Nobody will hurt you, River. I promise,” Ash pleaded with River.
River ’s body was rigid as she looked around for another exit. Look for it…Look for it. She knew to look for every avenue of escape. The exit to another door was behind the vampire and River couldn’t chance it. Jacky Boy explained to her that vampires were faster than anything she had ever seen.
Larsen got up and slowly walked to River. She watched him as he walked. Before she knew what she was doing, River whispered, “Wolf.” She had gotten used to doing it when she saw it in people. River thought she was crazy and was just seeing things, but in reality she could see animals as they lay inside them.
Shocked at what she heard, Ash leaned over to River. “Did you just say wolf?” Ash asked.
Larsen was standing in front of River, blocking her view but she leaned around Larsen so she could keep her eyes on the vampire. She ignored Ash —her whole body was in tune to what the vampire was doing. She couldn’t think of anything other than getting away from him. Her to-go bag was still upstairs along with her keys and
