Chapter Five

“What are we looking at in timeframe, Doc?” Niki asked as Simon held the last of eleven tubes of blood in his hand, twirling it left and right to keep the blood from coagulating.

Brita pushed down the sleeve of her blouse. She picked up on the anxious tones in Niki’s voice. The other female seemed just as anxious as she did to discover the truth that lay within Brita’s body. Brita felt a connection with the woman just on this basic level alone.

“A day maybe two for preliminary results. We have enough of your DNA and your sisters on file to start there for a base line and see what matches and what doesn’t.” Simon backed up toward the door left open by Niki’s sisters when they left with all the specimens they’d collected from Brita.

Simon turned to walk out and almost collided with Alek who walked up to the door with Dean and Bhric in tow.

“Ah, the mates,” Simon commented. “She can leave now.”

He’s not my mate.

“You said that awful fast.” Niki chuckled as she moved close to Dean who stepped into the room.

Alek stared past the other doctor’s shoulder, his sunglow eyes flashing with heat.

She shivered in response. Brita’s mind recalled the taste of him last night and how much she had yearned to feel his teeth in her. Marking her. No.

“What?” Alek asked.

Brita glanced over at Niki who was too busy canoodling with Dean to meet her gaze. She hadn’t even recalled speaking. However, at the moment she was so stressed and tired, all her defenses were lower than they’d ever been since she’d learned as an adolescent how to guard and mask her scent and thoughts.

“Ah, neophytes. Have you learned nothing from me?” Simon shook his head and groaned in annoyance. “Mating has more to do with genetic matching than biting. The bite is only the conduit to the biological psyche that already exist. You can’t force a mating. Sadly, some do,” he shook his head absentmindedly. ”It doesn’t last. Never lasts, too easy to break…” Grumbling something about silk purses and swine ears Simon went on his way leaving everyone in his wake dumbfounded.

Brita wasn’t sure what the wolf was talking about and was too worn out to even try to figure it out at the moment.

“That male needs to learn to speak shifter.” Bhric called out down the hall to Simon’s retreating form.

“How about something to eat and some rest? Since you have time.” Alek walked over to her. “Unless you were going to head back to Pigeon Forge until the results came in.”

She hadn’t considered leaving. That shocked her. However, she chalked it up to being focused on being so close to getting some answers.

He was close to her, less than a foot, but didn’t touch her. She could still feel his the heat of his body.

“Food and rest sound great.” After all the medicinal smells during the last hour, Brita drew in Alek’s musk, a balm to her tired senses.

“Let’s get out of here.
