Chapter Fifteen
CHAPTER FIFTEEN
JIM’S POV
My mouth is dry.
I stare at the wolf in front of me.
Bria.
The beautiful, mysterious stranger who appeared in mom's shop hours earlier...
Who I accidentally saw naked...
Who is obviously the most gorgeous person I have ever set eyes on...
Is a wolf?
A wolf I like?
"Nobody has ever stood up for me the way you just did," I say.
I feel my heart quicken.
My blood runs hot.
I walk closer.
I touch her ears.
They flicker under my touch but she lets me.
My fingers trace down to her muzzle.
I'm shaking, but I am not scared.
"You're the most amazing woman I have ever met," I whisper.
Bria begins to transform again before my eyes, turning back from a wolf to a human.
She stands before me in all her gorgeous glory and I am overcome by awe.
"My beautiful girl," I whisper.
She reaches out and places her hand over my heart.
I cannot control the trembling.
"Do you feel it?" she asks.
Her eyes are full of questions.
Full of depth.
