Officer Wolf (Sizzling Shifter BBW Romance) (With Bonus Book) by Sierra Burton

between her fingers and then raised her hand, and then slid it across the cheek of Isaac Jones as he reached for her.
    He toppled backwards as he rose to his feet and let out a deep pitched animalistic sounding moan, “You bitch .” He roared.
    Lana sprung forward with the blade once again as he clutched his bleeding cheek, and this time she wasn’t so gentle with it. It slid deeply across the flesh of his fingers and then went up the side of his nose and to his forehead. It would have gone even further if he hadn’t fallen backwards with a screech .
    “Damn you .” He howled and sprung back up to his feet.
    He wasn’t quick enough for her. The third cut of the blade wasn’t a slice, but a jab. She rammed it into his stomach as he gripped onto her neck, and then his grip weakened and his eyes bulged out in shock as he felt the sharpness of the blade twisting into his abdomen. He fell backwards again and at the very same moment the door swung open and a police officer entered the room with his gun pointed forwards.
    “Freeze! Both of you!” McKinney roared.
    Lana threw her hands up and dropped the knife at his command. Isaac Jones smiled and began to mutter something before McKinney rushed forward and silenced him with a kick to the head. His neck loosened and his raised head crashed to the floor with a dull thud, and then he was knocked out. McKinney kept the gun raised on Lana as he stared at her cautiously.
    “Who are you, and why are you in my boss’s house?”
    “I am his girlfriend, Lana. I just moved to town.”
    “Ma’am, I just found a dead Sheriff on the side of the road. Excuse me if I’m exercising a little extra caution tonight.” He lowered his gun and took a deep breath, and then walked across the room to Isaac and twisted him onto his stomach. He handcuffed him and left him lying there as he walked to the couch and plopped down on it.
    “Are you okay, officer?” Lana asked worriedly.
    “Yes, just tired. I’ve been through a lot tonight.” He eyeballed her and placed his gun beside him.
    Lana felt strange about the officer. She stared at him cautiously and felt like something was off about him. How he’d walked in and kicked Isaac in the face so casually as soon as he started to say something. How he’d hobbled over to the couch and sat down on it and closed his eyes. Something wasn’t right, and she didn’t know what it was.
    By the time the door opened a few minutes later McKinney’s gun was raised and aimed directly at Lana. He wasn’t afraid, and he’d damn well kill her if he had to in order to save himself. He wasn’t that bad of a guy, he told himself, he was just out for himself.
    It’s a  dog eat dog world, he’d always say.
    Chris turned the corner and already had his own gun out. Lana stared at Chris and walked forward excitedly, happy to see him. She also happened to be oblivious to the fact that a gun was being pointed at her.
    “ Hold it missy !” McKinney snapped suddenly.
    Lana turned and her eyes bulged out as she saw what was going on. She’d been right about him, after all. There was indeed something not right about him, and now she knew what it was. He was on the other side of the law… Just like the Sheriff had been.
    “McKinney,” Chris growled, “Don’t get too excited, don’t do anything stupid that you’ll regret. Do you understand?”
    “Fuck you, Chris,” McKinney laughed and tightened his finger on the trigger, “Wow, that felt good. I’m going to say it again. Fuck – you . I’ve been sick of taking orders from you since the day I started… So when this guy got around to me a while back, I just had to take him up on his offer. After all, he said he’d give me so much money that I could retire and move to Mexico,” McKinney paused and seemed to reminisce, “Never been there, always wanted to go. Said I could live like a king down there on five hundred grand. You think he was bullshitting me? I saw his bank account and he even typed
