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

The next day, I went in search of Tallia shortly after lunch. 


I followed her scent to a small living room and found Zarron hovering in the doorway, watching her speak with the two shifters grieving their newly dead mates. 


“What’s she doing?” I asked as I watched her sitting across from the two of them, encouraging them to speak to each other. 


“She’s helping them,” he said, his voice cracking. “She spent time with each of them individually this morning and now she’s having them meet with each other, so they know that someone is there for them that’s in the exact same shoes.” 


I blinked at the side of his head before turning and looking back at my mate. She was speaking in low, gentle tones to them and holding each of their hands in one of hers. 


“Come away from here,” I said to Zarron. “Come have a drink in my office.”
