CHAPTER THREE

“It would be safest to drop her off at the hospital, call that Ray guy and have him keep an eye on her,” Matthew said.

Dylan shook his head, dismissing the idea. “She saw Alex. She saw you. She watched a guy and a bear chasing another guy across her apartment complex, got held at knife point, and then might have seen the end of it. A shit-ton of illegal fuckery.” Dylan shook his head again. “We need to keep an eye on her.”

“I’m not the asshole who changed in front of her,” Matthew pointed out.

“She didn’t see me actually change,” Dylan countered. “She saw a bear and she saw a naked guy. Two separate things.” He shrugged. “She can’t know for certain that it’s related.” Dylan glanced into the back of the van as he made his way towards the hospital; they’d have to deal with Alex later, for sure—and it was a dicey proposition to be carting around a corpse when he needed to take a bystander to the hospital—but their hostage seemed to still be breathing, at least.

“How do you think this is going to play out?” Dylan briefly met Matthew’s gaze before turning his attention back onto the road. “I mean, even if we keep an eye on her, she’s got a hell of a story to tell. Do you think we’re going to be able to convince her to keep it to herself?”

“Why not? We’re the good goddamned Samaritans who kept her from being killed,” Dylan said.

“If we’d caught Alex earlier, he wouldn’t have tried to snatch her up in the first place,” Matthew told him. “It was a sloppy fucking job.”

“She’s the only one we know about who saw us,” Dylan said. “We keep her quiet about it, there’s no one to say anything else about what happened. Just the way the client wants it.”

They’d been working for two weeks. Dylan had begun to relax a bit. He knew that the job had gone pear-shaped—someone had tipped Alex off to the fact that they were after him. He’d been forced to change after the were-lion had given chase despite the injuries he’d already sustained. They’d hoped to chase Alex into one of the wooded areas surrounding the apartment complex he’d fled to, where Dylan’s bear form would be of greater advantage. But then Alex had taken a different route, and they’d had to deal with a bystander.

Why’d it have to be a pretty bystander? Dylan glanced at the woman slumped in the back of the van through his rearview mirror. He and Matthew had gone out once or twice—to celebrate their first successful job, to get a feel for the local scene—but thus far Dylan hadn’t managed to find anyone he wanted to fool around with. The woman slumped in the back of the van, unconscious, was undeniably beautiful: the diminutive brunette had a cute face—when it wasn’t planted against the cushion of the seat. He remembered the sight of her, trapped against Alex,
