"Please, don't go," I whispered as I started kissing her neck once again.

If they discovered that you were in the woods with me, kissing and caressing? As much as I love you and as much as we are mates, we are also enemies, Triton."

"No!" I said, my face still buried in her neck. "I don't care what they think! I don't care what will happen! All I want is you."

My Enemy, My Mate

I continued to sniff the earth to figure out how long it had been since the wolf scent was transferred. I was still sort of new to this, but I felt like I could figure it out.

His eyes were dark, with only two lights peering out at me. He was a black wolf with streaks of silver ribboning through his fur. He was amazing to behold.
