The next day, Wyatt woke up with Valerie by his side and felt totally right with the world.

The past weeks seemed to have gone by like a blur, and all that seemed to matter was being here, now, with the woman who’d come to mean everything to him somehow.

Her blond hair was splayed over the pillow, her tanned, freckled face peaceful in repose. Though he couldn’t help remembering how it had looked, twisted in passion, sparkling and beautiful.

He reached out a hand to stroke her hair and then realized he didn’t want to startle her.

He decided instead to shower and walked quietly into the master bedroom to start the water. It always took a minute to get hot.

He leaned on the counter while he waited, trying not to think about how hot last night had been, the way she’d gone wild in his arms.

He was surprised what simple kindness could bring out in a woman. But he knew it was more than that. There was something between them that had been there from the moment they met. It was what had made him follow her down the canyon to the bar to make sure she didn’t get into trouble. What made him interfere in her life more than he usually would have for a trench coated stranger?

She might just be his mate.

But he wasn’t sure how one knew. Was it the powerful feelings he’d had toward her in bed? The way he found himself constantly wanting to go down to the stables to find her and spend time with her? The way he looked forward to their daily rides?

The way nothing lately seemed as important as putting a smile on her face?

The whole situation was perplexing. Wyatt had expected someday he would do his duty and fly out a cat to meet him and see if they would be a good match.

He hadn’t expected the perfect woman for him to just walk onto his ranch.

Was she perfect, though? She didn’t even want commitment. Didn’t want to stay forever. If she really were his mate, then he was playing with fire by torturing himself even more by taking tastes of what he couldn’t have, but what was meant to be his.

Damn, he knew he’d be a possessive monster as a mate. Always wanting her for himself, unable to help being possessive. Everything she would come to hate about him. Everything she’d hated about other men who tried to own her. He wished he could say he’d be the patient, stand-offish kind, but he knew he couldn’t.

He’d never really had someone to love for his own, even a sibling, but he had a feeling when he did, that love would be like a wildfire, possessive and uncontrollable and destroying everything he held dear.

So it was best to not think of her as his.

She’d already said she would never consider it.

The bathroom was filling up with steam, and he was lost in his thoughts until a soft knock on the open bathroom door startled him, making him stand a little taller as he looked over.
