CHAPTER FIVE

He was only going to ask her once, and for the love of everything sacred, he hoped she said no. His body was calling out to her so hard, so potently that he was having a hard time restraining himself. The bear inside walked in circles, anxious to claim a mate. It wanted Gia. He wanted Gia. And maybe, if she admitted to the crimes, but shared a reason that he could maybe understand -- a reason he could overlook, help her overcome--then he could forgive. They could right what had been wronged, and start fresh.

Man, that was a lot of maybes.

She backed away from him, bumping into the horse and crossing her arms. “What did you just ask me?”

“The mixer -- a couple clansmen attended the same mixer and were robbed, drugged, by a woman matching your description.” He put his hands up, palms out as her mouth fell open and fury crossed those pretty eyes. “Now wait a minute, Gia. Hear me out.”

“You brought me out here to accuse me of theft?”

“No. No, that wasn’t the plan. I just… I just need to be sure, Gia.”

She sidestepped away from the horse and stormed past him toward the hill. Ah, hell. One minute, he’d been in heaven feeling her body, imagining all the things he was going to do to her. He dropped the horse’s reins, a sign to stay put, and spun on his heel to follow her. The buzz of her cell phone cut through the chirping of birds. She pulled it from her pocket, swore, and put it back.

“Gia. Gia!”

“I’m going back, Trey.”

“Just tell me that you’re not her. And if you are, then… then we’ll talk about it. Okay? Let me help you set things right.”

She turned to him and spread her arms wide. “If I admit that I stole from your men, you’ll help me?” Her arms dropped, her head tipping to the side. He moved to touch her, but she spun away. “Don’t touch me. What did I even do to bring on suspicion?”

He ran a hand over the back of his neck, his legs going wide in a firm stance. “At the mixer, you seemed so confident in flirting and getting men’s attention, and the way you implied someone special gave you the fossil—it didn’t set right with me. And watch thing. I just… it all came together in my mind.”

“You bastard.” Gia crossed her arms, trying to hold back a tremor. “My father gave me the fossil necklace a week before he died.”

Trey looked up to the sky and closed his eyes. “I’m sorry, Gia. Damn it.” Hands on his hips, he took a deep breath. “I want you. My bear wants you. You’re her. The one I thought I didn’t want.” Trey shoved his hands in his front pockets and looked to the clear, blue sky. “I never intended to actually find a woman at the mixer, at least, not one who speaks to my soul like you do. I can’t explain it, how you affect me.
