Lycan's Prey by Jessica Hall

Chapter 212

We lay like that, our bodies tangled together, sweat slowly cooling in the night air, spent but content. The scent of him and the earth beneath us fill my nostrils and for a moment, I let myself drift in the euphoria, enjoying the closeness and the moon’s rays beating down on us through the trees. All goes quiet and so does my racing mind, instead I focus on the sound of his breathing, and his heart beating beneath my ear.

The crunch of leaves makes my eyes open to the trees above, Aubrey stirs besides me, but doesn’t wake at the intruder when I feel the mindlink open up. “It’s just me,” comes my brother’s voice. Twisting slightly, I turn my head to look for him only to see him set some clothes on a nearby log.

“She out?” he asks through the mindlink. I glance down at her, her breaths even against my chest, My fingers stroke through her hair gently, and she wriggles closer.

“For now,” I reply.
