GIA HADN’T SEEN OR HEARD from Layton for two days. She kept to herself in the small house she shared with Micah—making sure to avoid him as much as possible. He’d been a close friend; an almost brother to her as they grew up together. Now, she saw him in a different light. The wolf thing didn’t bother her as much as it probably should have, but the threat of death unless she married him was nagging her. If Layton were to find out about it, he would more than likely fly into a fit of rage and try to kill every wolf in a hundred mile radius, including Micah. Gia couldn’t let anyone else lose their life over her.

“I know you’ve been avoiding me,” Micah walked into the living room where she sat on the sofa with her legs curled underneath her. All he wore were a pair of stark white athletic shorts and a ragged ball cap. His sculpted abs and chest caused Gia to take a second look as he stood in front of her with his hands braced on his hips.

“It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that out, congrats.”

“Don’t be a smartass.” He moved around the coffee table then plopped down on the cushion beside her. “Do you hate me?” he asked.

“I don’t hate anyone.”

“You could learn to love me, G,” Micah reached out, grabbing her hand in his.

“Love shouldn’t be learned. It’s something that just happens.” She jerked her hand from his.

Just as he stood from his seat, a knock came at the door. “Who the hell could that be,” Micah’s annoyance at the interruption was clear. When she watched him swing the door open, the annoyance turned to anger. “What the fuck do you want?”

“I’m your brother. Aren’t I allowed to pop in for a visit?” Gia’s eyes went wide as Garian strode through the door. When he spotted her, he glanced at his brother then back to her, “Did I catch you at a bad time?” one side of his mouth lifted in a smirk.

“I could use some fresh air,” Gia said as she jumped from her seat on the couch. Once her knee boots were secure over her jeans, she grabbed a sweater and darted out the door. Whatever Micah and his brother needed to talk about, didn’t need to include her. She had enough on her plate as it was.

Behind the house began a narrow trail that led into the forest nearby. Since Las Vegas didn’t afford the luxury of much greenery, Gia used her time away from the house to explore where the path would take her. With her sweater pulled over her head, she felt its warmth blanket her as she took the first few steps into the canopy of trees. The air was somewhat damp, causing her face to chill slightly but she wasn’t letting that deter her from moving forward.

Each step seemed to clear some of the thought debris in her head. No, she hadn’t come up with a sensible solution to her problems yet, but at least she was smiling.
