Blood. Screams. Crunching sounds.

Everything repeating, playing on a loop,

Ava shot up with a job to the early morning light streaming through the curtains. The darkness receded from her mind as her heart hammered in her chest.

I was only when she heard his voice and felt his hand gently rubbing her back that she realised she was in Zeke’s bed again.

And she was in nothing but her sports bra and underwear!

She lay back down quickly, drawing the bedding over her body as she put some distance between them. She felt the loss of contact with him as if she had ripped a part of herself off her body.

Zeke was wide awake, and the covers had fallen to his waist. His naked chest was exposed, and his hard, defined abs made it incredibly difficult for her to calm her already haywire heartbeat.

“Why am I here?”

Zeke didn’t say anything. His amber eyes continued to study her face with a slight frown marring his perfect features.

“Do you know who your real parents were?” he asked

The random question made her momentarily forget about his naked chest and the little wicked voice in her head that was wondering if he was completely naked under the sheet.

“Vaguely, she answered. “Why are you asking!”

“Were they both werewolves?”

bed and grabbed his shirt from the chair. When she threw it over her head and finally turned around. Zeke had his arms behind his head and was unashamedly watching her. His eyes glowed amber and red as they trailed her body from head to tor. The sheet had pulled lower on his body in her haste to put some distance between them, so the resulting picture was probably the stud that hat dreams were made of. Her body felt feverish as his gaze burned her, and she couldn’t help but look at him, too. In her mind, she had been intimate with Zeke

in her lifetime, no matter where she ended up after escaping this place. He had rocked her world with just a kiss, and she’d read enough to know that stuff like that didn’t happen
