Look what you did! She’ll never look at us the same way again!

He growls back at me, not caring what I have to say. He’s got a one-track mind and all that’s on it is claim, claim, claim in an endless fucking loop.

My hands squeeze into fists and I throw my head back as he starts fighting me again. “Stop. It,” I hiss through gritted teeth as he slashes his way up, wrenching and tearing his way out.

I hope she’s not seeing this.

My body is violently jerking around as I struggle to keep the barbaric beast contained. He’s insane. I fucking hate him for ruining this for me. For us.

I’m so pissed that if I could get him out of me and wrap my hands around his thick stubborn neck, I would. Then, I wouldn’t let go until his head was removed from his body and mounted over my fireplace.

My shoulders burn as they grow twice their size. Long fur sprouts out until I squeeze him back in and the long brown hairs retract back into my skin. “Arrghh,” I grunt as my eyes water and my teeth nearly shatter from my jaw clenching so hard. I grab two handfuls of my hair and squeeze as he fights me, snarling and gnashing his teeth as we lock horns like a couple of alphas in battle.

I crash into the railing on the balcony and that’s when I see her.

Chloe is outside, watching me in front of the open door. Her hands are rubbing together nervously as she watches the horrific scene in front of her.

My bear sees the worried look in her eyes and I guess he has a shred of decency left, because he sulks back down with a grunt and lets me handle it. Thanks, you asshole. Like I can ever talk my way out of this.

She looks at me for a long moment as I try to catch my breath.

“What’s wrong?” she finally asks in a tiny voice.

My heart sinks as I look at her, knowing my grizzly bear might have ruined everything. We could have had love. We could have had so much more.

She’ll want to leave now, but I won’t let her. There’s no way I’m letting my mate out of my sight. But it’s going to be different now. Instead of wanting to be here, I’ll be forcing her to stay and that’s no good when it comes to making a life together.

It’s too hard to even think about and I have to look away or my heart will literally break.

Chloe hurries over to me and touches my arm. I can feel the nervous tremors in her hand and it just makes everything worse. I should be her protector. The one who takes away her fear, not gives it to her.

“You can tell me,” she says in a soft voice that settles the rage in my grizzly. Now he’s calm. Now he’s a teddy bear. Well, it’s too fucking late, I tell him.

She touches my cheek and my eyes start to water. “You can tell me anything,” she whispers.

I swallow hard as I look into those stunning blue eyes that have already changed my life. “It’s my bear… He wants you.”

She doesn’t turn away or run, and I love her more now than I ever have before.

“He’s been waiting so long and he doesn’t want to wait any longer.”

Her tiny hand slides down my arm all the way to my hand. She entwines her fingers with mine and I look down at the difference. Her hand is so small and delicate, mine is enormous and pure power.

“What about you?” she asks.

My eyes dart back up to hers.

“Do you want me too?”

“More than you’ll ever know,” I say as my heart swells in my thundering chest. “I’ve never wanted anything more. You’re breath in my lungs, Chloe. You’re everything to me.”

I take a deep breath as she watches me.

“I’ve been waiting too,” I continue. “Thirty-six long years and every second of it has been torture without you. I’m just so happy you’re here and now my bear has gone all primal and ruined it.”

She shakes her head as her soft eyes bore into mine. “He hasn’t ruined it.”

My heart stops. “What are you saying?”

She glances back at the door as she holds onto my hand. I’m in shock as I look down at her. There’s something new in her blue eyes, a sensual lust that wasn’t there before.

“Come with me,” she says with a deep throatiness in her voice.

My heart is pounding as she pulls me back inside.

Chapter Nine

Chloe

I pull Ethan into the dark bedroom as strong passionate emotions run through me, making my pulse race.

The curtains are open and the view of the lake at night is stunning. The full moon is shining on the water and lighting up Ethan’s dark face as I turn around to look at him.
