Sabrina woke to the sound of her apartment door opening and closing. Low male voices vibrated through her bedroom door, making her heart thud in her ears. Had someone else come to attack her? Why was this happening all of a sudden when there hadn’t been any other threats lately?

But when someone knocked on her door, she figured it probably wasn’t anyone who wanted to kill her. Sabrina cleared her throat. “Yes?”

“Jack is here to take over for the day. Thought I’d make the introductions.” Max’s voice was gruff and clipped. He didn’t want to be talking to her any more than she wanted to be talking to him.

“I’ll be out in a minute.” Feeling sassy, Sabrina considered taking her sweet time getting dressed before coming out of the bedroom. But the faster she complied with Max’s wishes, the sooner he’d be out of her apartment. She threw on jeans and a t-shirt as she recalled the night before.

It’d been utterly terrifying to have someone come at them out of the dark, and even more so that it was someone as their animal. For whatever reason, Sabrina had always imagined the death threats she’d received as coming from someone in their bipedal form. But of course, a wolf would be more fully prepared to attack. Max had dispatched him quickly, almost easily. He was right that he’d done his job, but it left her with a cold feeling in her veins that she still couldn’t shake. Sabrina glanced in the mirror as she ran a brush through her hair and then opened the bedroom door.

Max was standing at the breakfast bar, a coffee mug in his hand as he spoke in low tones to a tall man with broad shoulders. He straightened when he saw her and gestured to the other man. “Jack, this is Dr. Sabrina Barrett. Sabrina, Jack.”

She plastered on a smile and made sure it was directed only at the newcomer. “It’s nice to meet you.”

“You as well. I’m afraid I don’t come with a helicopter like Max here, but I understand you have the day off today.” He had a warm hand and a friendly smile, and he was about as much the opposite of Max as you could get.

“I am off work, but I do have some errands to run.”

Max rubbed his chin. “I’m not sure that’s a good idea after last night. It’s best if you just stay here.”

She looked past him through the patio doors. “I’m fairly certain you were hired to watch over me, not to keep me prisoner. I have appointments, and I plan to keep them.” Sabrina didn’t turn to look, but she was aware of the two men exchanging a glance.

“We can handle it,” Jack said. “I’ve brought the company car.”

Max’s lips were tight, but he looked ready to say something. Instead, he gave them a curt nod and left.

Sabrina let out a sigh of relief as the door closed behind him. She didn’t know Jack, and it should
