Chapter 11

Carly

Tiny balls whoosh into the water as Annie pours bath salts into the tub. Like everything in this house, it's enormous, and I bet ten people could bathe in it comfortably. A tile ledge is around the perimeter, and it extends all the way to a big window that takes up almost the entire wall. While it's dark now, I imagine the view of the forest is spectacular. The scent of lavender fills the room.

Brady begins to take off his clothes, and I look over at Annie in shock that he's undressing in front of her.

She smiles. "Get used to men stripping in front of everyone. They have no shame."

Brady snorts, "Oh, please, women do it too. You have to if you want to keep your favorite clothes."

"True, brother dear, but we're more civilized about it."

She winks at me. "Roar if you need me."

I smile at her little joke even though I'm on the verge of a major crying jag. Brady climbs into the tub and moans in pleasure.

He says, "C'mon, I'll wash you."

The buttons of the shirt I'm wearing are slippery in my fingers, and I fumble a moment before I begin to feel the ache in my hands. Crap on a cracker, I'm shifting. Before panic can set in, I close my eyes and take a deep breath. I listen to the air fill my lungs and then blow it out steadily. My body seems to get the message, and the ache subsides.

Brady's voice makes me open my eyes. "Well done. You're quick to catch on."

Pride surges in me, and I wonder why the hell I care what he thinks. Yeah, I'm a little bitter about the changing thing. I manage to get the shirt off by pulling it over my head, and I step into the water. It's almost too hot, but I sink in and let it flow over my shoulders.

Brady moves behind me and pulls me against his body. His cock throbs and thickens behind me. "Sorry, natural reaction to you. But I don't think sex is a good idea right now."

I nod and lean back into his embrace. Desire overpowers my lingering anger. "How does sex affect shifting?"

"I'm not sure how it works with women, but for men we shift when we want to dominate." I stiffen as a vision of Keith coming toward us replays in my mind, and Brady says, "It can be controlled. Nobody does the bestiality thing."

I hadn't even considered that, and the idea makes me want to cringe. He wiggles a bit behind me. "That's why I bit you when I lost control. It's a way to stop shifting and common for two shifters to do to each other. I'm sorry; I never planned on hurting you."

He drops his head to my shoulder and speaks into my neck. "I'll never lose control with you like that ever again. Watching you change was the scariest thing I've ever done. I thought I'd killed you, Carly, and I wanted to die too.
