Chapter Six

“So.”

Tabby raised her brow, wondering what the hell Alex was up to. He"d let her shower by herself this

morning, his demeanor quiet and thoughtful. He"d finished his yoga before she got out, and damn if she

wasn"t sorry to miss that. Watching him stretch that amazing body, his muscles quivering with strain, had

been an incredible turn-on. After he was done, he"d led her to IHOP for breakfast, his expression still

peaceful after his morning workout.

“Tell me about Gary.”

She thudded her head down on the Formica table hard enough she"d probably have a red mark. “Bacon.

Need bacon.”

“Tabby.”

She huffed out a breath, leaving her face on the table. “Fine. Gary is a student at the college who thinks

it"s fun to try to fuck with me.” She couldn"t go into too much detail; it was Saturday morning and the IHOP

was packed to the rafters with humans and Pumas. One mention of shifters right now could lead to either a

long life in a hug-me jacket or being forced to leave the only real home she"d ever known. Neither one was an

option she wanted to contemplate.

“How long has this been going on?”

The quiet tone of voice had her stiffening. She was coming to recognize that tone as a dangerous sign.

She stiffened, wondering if Alex would lose it. He couldn"t go after Gary. Gary, thanks to his friends, was too

well protected. Besides, Gabe wouldn"t be able to keep Alex out of trouble if he went after Gary unprovoked.

Despite everything that had happened, they had no solid proof that Gary had ever threatened to lay a hand on

her. It would be her word against his and his goon squad"s. That would work against Alex in both human and

shifter law. “Why?”

He gave her an innocent look, totally incongruous on his face. “No reason.”

She glared up at him through the fall of her bangs. “Alex.”

“You are so not allowed near my mother anymore,” he grumbled.

“Why not?”

“You sound just like her.”

She could feel a smile trying to break free. He sounded like a grumpy little boy. “After having met your

mother, I"d say that"s a good thing.”

His eyes sparkled with approval even while he glowered at her. “Flattery will not get you out of telling

me what I want to know.”
