“Thank you for calling Centerburg Bank and Credit account management. This is Leigh, how may I help you?!” 

For the millionth time since I started this job, I wonder how I got stuck here in my hometown, when all my other high school friends, even my old crush Donovan, managed to go on to do so many more cool things in way better places.

“Hey, Leigh, how was your weekend?” A voice like smoke and velvet flows through the headset that soothes my Lycan ears.

Butterflies and sparks make my cheeks flush.

How is it possible for a Lycan to fall in love with a voice?

Mackenzie thought her life working at the local bank was boring and simple until, suddenly, it wasn’t.

“What do you mean you broke up?!” Hannah’s voice cracks. “This needs to be a video call. What did he say to you?!” 


I decline the video call. One, I look like a mess, and two, I’m busy putting Donovan’s Alpha Medallion in an air-tight jar so pheromones don’t keep making me sneeze.


“He didn’t do anything wrong. He was totally fine. I just freaked out when we were about to have sex, and then we had a conversation…and basically realized we want different things,” I explain, trying to keep the emotion out of my voice, and failing spectacularly.


I’m pleased when my nose stops itching after the medallion has been in the jar for a minute. I’ll have to return it to Donovan tomorrow. It’s too important for me to keep.


“...You’d tell me if he was doing something shady, right? Like if he was pressuring you.” Hannah’s voice dips, and I hear things rattle in the background like she’s searching for a knife, rope, and duct tape.
