The Pack's Doctor by Cooper

Chapter 285

Hijack

The space where Hacker set up the security system is small, made smaller by the young girl who is practically bouncing out of her shoes.

“Are you always this excitable?” I ask her.

“This is exciting,” she says, peering over my arm to watch. “I mean, don’t you think so?”

To me, this work is boring. But I appreciate her enthusiasm, and I want to nurture it, so I don’t say that.

“There are many other things that we do that are more exciting,” I say instead.

“Like what? Wendy is always at her computer working with you guys,” she says.

Interesting. Wendy isn’t always working with me. If she’s spending that much time at her computer, then she’s spending more time with Hacker than I realized. I already knew he liked her and was probably using this weekend to spend time with her away from me. Which is exactly why I showed up. Wendy isn’t eighteen and if we’re both interested in her, there’s a possibility that she could be mated to one of us. So yeah, I’m here to cockblock that bastard.

“Well, hunting down bad guys is a lot more fun,” I say, as I work.

This pup smells a lot like her sister. I’ve noticed that all the women in the Hill family smell like something out of kitchen, something warm and enticing, something that smells like home. I’ve never really paid attention to other families before to see if it’s the same and not having any sisters myself, I can’t really compare. The men in this family smell more earthy, like most male wolves do, but the females all have a very

attractive scent.

“How do you find them?” she asks. She’s pressed so close to me that I can feel her body heat and her head is practically resting on my arm.

Her excitement is practically pulsing off of her.

“It depends on what they’re hiding and how good they are at hiding it. If you’re going to continue to breathe down my neck, I’m putting you to work,” I say, grinning at her to take the sting out of my words.

“Sorry,” she says, scooting back. “But I’ll help. Just tell me what you want me to do.”

She’s eager, I’ll give her that. And she’s just like Sphinx. She absorbs everything I tell her and never once complains about what I ask her to

do.

When the last line turns green, she squeals in excitement and throws herself into my arms.

“We did it!”

I’m unused to any display of affection unless it’s in the bedroom. I’m certainly not used to young females hugging me excitedly. It takes a second for me to remember that her mother is a hugger and she probably got that from her.

“We did it,” I confirm, hugging her awkwardly.

She jumps back, grinning at me. “What’s next?”
