Willow

The smell was what was getting to me. I would imagine that the scent wouldn't be so vital for a human, but as a wolf, it was. I also could smell the subtleties of the smoke. The food burned. The walls were charred. All of it told a story of what had once been my livelihood.

At least the building was intact. Just not my nightclub.

The fire inspector had said the building was fine and that the fire was ultimately out. He gave me permission to come in. I needed to do this alone. That was the way I'd spent my whole life. Except for Lupe, I had no friends or family. At least since Gramma died. She hadn't been part of a pack, either, and I'd chosen to emulate her way of life.

I looked around at the one thing that I could say was mine. I'd taken out a loan, but I'd paid that back. I owned this business, and now it was gone.

Footsteps startled me. “Willow?”

Razor. What was I going to do about him? I was angry and hurt. I could have defeated Lobo. Razor hadn’t needed to intervene. I didn’t answer him. He stood a respectful distance away. That was good because I knew anything coming out of my mouth right now would be in anger.

“I don’t know what to say, Willow. I’m sorry.”

"You've already apologized."

“You haven’t accepted my apology.”

I swung on him. "It isn't that simple, Razor. By intervening, you assumed I was incapable of defending myself. You also used fire which you promised not to do. You burned down my nightclub, and I don't know if insurance will cover it because there isn't a clause for fire-breathing dragons losing control."

Exhausted from my tirade, I turned away from him. He took some tentative steps toward me, and I hated that my body craved his comfort. Even if I was mad at him for destroying this place, I still wanted him to wrap his arms around me. What was going on with me? Why did Razor have this effect on me?

I didn’t like it at all. This wasn’t me. What was I becoming? I couldn’t rely on Razor. It was against my nature and dangerous. I’d had my heart broken by someone who I’d chosen to depend on. He’d been undependable.

What exactly did I know about Razor? He was great in bed, but that wasn't a reason to rely on him. I shook myself. No. I wasn't going to turn to him and let him comfort me. I straightened my spine. "Don't come any closer."

“Willow,” he said.

I wouldn't let the desperation in his voice sway me. I had to go it alone, but I needed to regroup first. I couldn't figure out my next move until I was done mourning Goth LA. It was just how it had to happen. Being away from Razor would help. I put up a hand. "Don't Razor, just don't."

“Willow,” he said again.

This time it was a whisper.

"I can't, Razor. I let you into my life, and I made you a part of it too quickly.
