Fucking Trixi. The woman had been a pain in his ass since his first day here. What she lacked in education she made up in street smarts and cunning. Sheâd taken one look at him and decided he was her way out of this backwater town. He felt sorry for the girl sheâd been once, but that was it. He couldnât save her, he sure as hell didnât trust her⦠and now he had to stop her.
All that raced through his mind as he leaped to his feet. âStay here. Call your backup. Shoot anyone that comes through that door that isnât me.â
âGot it,â was all she said.
He felt a surge of gratitude that the universe had sent him a woman as sensible and brave as she was sexy. That was his last thought before he let the change take him. Between one step and the next, he shifted and everything changed.
His senses sharpened as his viewpoint changed. He was lower to the ground, four legs driving him forward at speeds he could never manage in human form. Trixiâs cheap perfume was easy to follow, the reek of it so strong it stung his nose.
His room was on the motelâs second floor which meant she had to take the stairs. Those heels she wore were going to slow her down. Good thing, too, because he needed to stop her before she called Snarl and tipped him off. The whole club would scatter like cockroaches if that happened and hunting them down again would take time and resources.
The part of his mind that was still human had questions. Why the fuck was she here? How much had she heard? And how the hell had she gotten a key to his room?
Trixi had only made part way down the steps when he caught up to her. He launched himself at her back with enough force to send her crashing to the landing with him on top of her.
Her scream of surprise cut off as her head hit the metal deck and all the air left her lungs in a long whoosh.
Someone yelled, âTrixi! What the fuck? Since when does Rod have a dog?â
Well shit. Freak was here, too. Fucking fantastic.
At least Trixi wasnât going to be a problem for a while. Sheâd smacked her head hard enough to knock herself out cold. His nose told him she was still alive, just out of action. One problem down. One to go.
Then the shooting started.
Normally, staying in one place while getting shot at was a bad idea. In this case, it would have been the smart move because it turned out Freak was as bad at shooting as he was at everything else.
The third shot caught him in the shoulder, and he uttered an undignified yelp of pain. I hope Trina didnât hear that.
He struggled to his feet as best he could on three legs. He was bleeding, in pain, and seriously pissed off. He needed to put an end to this before someone else got hurt.
