My free hand swept around her and pressed her lower back, so we crushed together. The hand that was in her hair dug in and cupped the back of her head. Tingles spread from every point of contact until my body was on fire. I burned for her. 

I harden against her.

Tallia gasped, but didn't pull away. She stared up at me in awe with her pupils blown wide. The scent of our arousal mixed and swelled around us. 

Her hands came up to my chest and her fingers dug in, like she'd claw me if I even tried to pull away. 

"I'm done running, my mate," I said in a low growl.

When a seer informs Alpha King Bryant where to find his mate, he hits the ground running. He never could have predicted he'd find a human that confuses both him and his wolf. When Tallia is bitten by a shifter and changes into a wolf herself, all bets are off.

Queen of the Shifters

Tallia didn't join the rest of the pack for dinner that night, or breakfast the next day. Zarron informed me that one of the omegas, Liza, was bringing Tallia her meals and that the two were spending some time together. 


I didn't like that. Shifters were natural pack animals, even the ones that turned into animals that were loners. As a species, we wanted to be around other shifters and liked hierarchy. 


Maybe it was because she’s a sigma. I didn't think it was because she was afraid. Tallia seemed to not fear a lot. 


If it was the sigma thing, then this could indicate the troubles she would have adjusting to this life. As much as I wanted to blame it on being a turned shifter, even the others that turned wanted to be around their new pack. 


After breakfast, I decided it was time Tallia got to know her wolf better.
