Protecting The Wolf's Mate
(Blood Moon Brotherhood, Bk #3)
by Sasha Summers
Blurb:
Ellen has one goal: vengeance. With little memory of her life before her imprisonment by a maniacal werewolf, her world has been full of pain, humiliation, and fear. But now that she's been rescued, her need for revenge is challenged by the urge to be part of a pack... and the unshakable connection to, Hollis, the man her wolf claims as their mate.
Hollis will do whatever it takes to protect his pack, and that includes looking after Ellen, who doesn’t need or want his help. He’s determined to keep her safe, even though she’s hell-bent on revenge, even if that means sacrificing himself. And it might come to that when the big bad comes back for the one woman he can’t live without.
Excerpts
She placed the
picture back in place. “You need a new picture. Olivia isn’t in this. And the
new baby will be here soon enough.”
“With any luck,
the pack will stop growing for a while.” He ignored her glare. “Besides, group
photos aren’t high on the priority list.”
“Take time to
record your history, Hollis. You know how important such things are.” They
disagreed on many things—from curing the infection that made them into wolves
to the value of science versus superstition. But on this, leaving a record,
they agreed. “You’re tense. More so than usual. If such a thing is possible.
You need to find something to occupy your time.”
Besides trailing
her like a lost puppy? Yes, he did. Something, anything, that would stop
whatever the fuck was gnawing at his insides and keeping his nerves on edge.
“Target
practice?” she asked, taking a long swig of milk from the carton.
He devoured two
of the freshly baked cookies on the counter and took the milk jug she offered.
“Knives?” Her affinity with knives was another mystery. Why would a woman
capable of turning into a near-perfect killing machine need to be skilled with
such weaponry? And saying Ellen was skilled with a knife didn’t adequately
describe just how graceful, and lethal, she was with a blade.
“Maybe you’ll
learn a thing or two.” She was smiling, goading him. Something else she loved
to do. “At the very least, I’ll get your mind off whatever is troubling you.”
He paused.
Doubtful.
“If you don’t
want to bleed, you’ll pay attention.” Her smile wavered enough for him to see
she was—in her way— offering to help. “My wolf wants to hunt. Tonight, you’re
the prey.”
“I asked if you were done with your glass?” She was the picture of
innocence—minus the flare of hunger in her eyes. And the far too satisfied
smile on her lips.
He couldn’t look away from her lips. He stepped forward to put his glass
on the countertop, but she wedged herself between him and the counter. He could
step back, give her space. Give him space. But she was testing him. If she
thought he was going to back down, she was wrong. He gripped the marble counter
on either side of her, pinning her there—warm and soft against him. Big
mistake. Every inch of him hardened with craving. “No. I’m not done with my
glass,” he ground out the words.
“More water?” She reached behind her, the action pulling her tank top
tight against the full swell of her breast. No bra. Only thin cotton. The tip
jutted up, tight. For him.
“No,” he snapped. He didn’t want water and she knew it. There was no
missing the throb of his erection pressed against her belly.
“No?” she repeated. “Then you don’t need your glass?” Her bravado slipped
when her gaze fell to his mouth.
“Dammit.” He growled, his lips descending on hers before he could stop
himself.
Her lips parted instantly beneath his, stealing his breath and making him
sway into her. How she managed to shift onto the counter he didn’t know. Her
legs wrapped around his waist and her fingers tangled in his hair, tugging
fiercely. He wasn’t sure who was kissing who, but her tongue stroked his and he
no longer cared.
This was all he wanted.
