Friends? She didn’t want friendship from this male. Yeah, okay, she did. But after she had his body…And his blood, don’t forget his blood. Her beloved cows’ blood was like drinking grape juice after having the rarest, most expensive wine in history.

“Would a friend drink my blood instead of a cow’s?” He growled, heat filling his eyes, like he intended to pounce on her.

“Maybe,” she drawled, her heartbeat picking up, “if it meant a lot to the friend.”

Almost hoping, okay really hoping, they would have a romantic rendezvous right there in the middle of the woods, Spencer waited with breathless anticipation as Bennett stepped closer to her.

“When you need more blood, come to me.” His deep voice vibrated over her nerve endings, making her shiver. “Don’t tap the cows.”

Oh, if only it were that easy. “Bennett,” he scowled at the hint of argument in her tone, “I’m afraid if I keep taking your blood and shifting then I’ll smell like a hybrid and it’ll be harder to hide.”

Bennett gave a curt nod, squinted up at the sun through the trees before turning to stalk toward her house.

“We better get planting,” he said brusquely.

Disappointment fluttered through her and she frowned down at her shoes. Had she offended him? She’d take brooding Bennett barking orders and cussing every other word over ambivalent Bennett.

After asking her what needed to be done, he managed to avoid her for the next few hours. Lunch came and went; he made sandwiches, then wandered outside to eat his meat pile with a tiny piece of bread and left hers on the counter.

Sitting alone, wondering if she should get a blood meal from Tulip before heading back to the cabin, her phone rang.

“Hi Spencer! It’s Constance.” Not waiting for a greeting, Constance rushed on. “We finally have a contract drawn up. When’s a good time for you to come look at it?”

Pausing to peer out her window and assess the weather, Spencer calculated when they could meet.

“Tomorrow afternoon would work well.”

“Great! Stop by the store about two o’clock. You can take your time going over the contract and make any suggestions.”

A thought popped into Spencer’s head. “I might bring my…friend with. Is that okay?”

“The more the merrier. See you then.” Constance’s warm tone brightened Spencer’s day.

“Who are you talking to?” Bennett was using his Guardian voice and there went Spencer’s mood boost.

“The lady from the store I’ll be selling my produce at needs to meet so I can read over and sign the contract. It’s tomorrow at two.” Spencer polished off her milk and stood to clear dishes, ignoring the dark form blocking the doorway.

Couldn’t do it. He had his collar open revealing a sweaty chest, his jeans were dirty, and his hair was scattered like he just rolled out of bed. Which he had, hours ago. The blond scruff on his face highlighted the deep bronze his skin had taken on over the years, showcasing his square jaw and stern demeanor.

This was the real Bennett and she liked it.
