CHAPTER 9

“Miz Shawna, wait for me!” Robbie called as he raced behind her. “You shouldn’t be walking around here by yourself. Especially not with those guys around. They were here earlier and they didn’t look happy.”

Shawna groaned at the news. Why couldn’t those guys just go away and leave them all alone? She’d made this month’s payment even after her family had left. That should have given her some leeway, but nope. Why was life such a bitch? The last few days had been a whirlwind of highs and lows. Every time she thought things were turning around there was life kicking her in the heart again.

“Are you all right? Your friend seemed pretty upset when you stormed out of his car like that.”

“He can go roast in the fiery pits of hell for all I care. He’s got a mate, a freaking mate, and here he was making me think things, impossible things.”

Robbie scratched his cheek. “I don’t know much, Miz Shawna, but I do know a thing or two about shifters. I had some old friends that were and they taught me a lot. If I recollect correctly, there is no way your man there would be taking you out or looking at you the way he does if he had a mate. You see, when shifters find their person that’s it for them. They never look at anyone else.”

“But he admitted he’d found his mate a few months back. He flat-out told me he had a mate, Robbie.”

Robbie bit his lip and tried to hide his smile, which just made Shawna even more confused. “What?” she asked as she put the key in her lock and opened the door. “Come in and tell me what you’re smirking about.”

She took two steps into the apartment before she realized they weren’t alone. She froze in terrified shock as she took in the two men standing in front of them with guns pointed directly at their heads.

“Come in and shut the door. Both of you,” the uglier of the men snarled. “Don’t think you will get far if you try to run. We’ve been watching; around here no one will care if we shoot.”

Shawna nodded slowly and stepped farther into the room. She glanced over to see Robbie standing next to her glaring at the two men. “Don’t do anything stupid,” she whispered quietly.

“Shut the door. We’ve got things to discuss,” the smaller man said with a sneer on his smarmy face.

“What do you want?” Robbie asked as he stepped in front of Shawna as if he was her human shield.

As much as she appreciated that, she couldn’t let him get hurt trying to protect her. This was not his fight. “It’s okay, Robbie. Let me handle this.” She placed a gentle hand on his shoulder as she stepped around him and faced the two men.

“If this is about my mother, you’re wasting your time. I don’t know where she is. She isn’t stupid enough to tell me that. She had to know you’d come here looking for her.
