Pax woke with a start.

Evie.

Why didn’t he see it before? Why didn’t he sense it?

Evelyn and Evie.

He scrubbed his face. They were one and the same. It had been almost twenty years, at least. That’s how long it had been since that first summer. Since that first kiss, that first…well, everything.

Craig was right. It was a blood bond, but it went deeper than that. The bond had gone dormant, or maybe he was just too self-absorbed to sense it. Pax cringed inwardly. Clearly Evie knew, and his dreams were shared memories.

He exhaled hard. He was a fool. A giant swinging dick with nothing on his mind except nailing the next pussy with a pulse. Ugh. If Evie shared his memories, then what the hell did she think of him now?

Evie probably recognized him from the very moment their eyes met after crashing into him at Starbucks. Pax had to laugh. She was always the smarter one. There was no other explanation for why he heard her so clearly in his head. How did he miss it? How did he miss the familiarity of her scent?

“You were just a kid, Pax. Then again, if you weren’t so busy thinking with your dick instead of your nose—”

His eyes flew to her from where he crashed in the chair. “Evie?”

“Yes, Pax to the Max. I can hear and I can feel, but I can’t move. I’m a prisoner in my own body.”

His heart squeezed at the nickname she’d called him all those years ago, and he got up and moved to the edge of her bed, taking her limp hand in his. “I don’t understand. How are you talking to me, then? Am I still dreaming?”

A soft chuckle feathered across his mind. “No—you finally figured out the key. Your gut was right. Our link is from our shared blood, but as you guessed, it’s from much more than just the trace.”

He ran a thumb over the silvery scar at the center of her palm, opening his hand to the matching one on his opposite palm. It was a stupid adolescent thing. A blood oath after the first time they made love. They both thought it would ensure they’d to be together, always.

Paxton leaned down to press a kiss her lips. “Evie, I’m so sorry I didn’t sense it was you,” he murmured. “Of all people—”

She chuckled, and he felt the sensation of her fingers brush his hair from his brow. “You were always more of a touchy feely than a ‘stand and think’ kind of guy, but that’s what I loved most about you. Then and now.”

A tight ball of emotion hit him like a thunder bolt. Humans never got love at first sight. They didn’t believe it existed. To be honest, for shifters it was more love at first scent than love at first sight. A human’s dulled senses could never appreciate or register the multi-faceted phenomenon.

He experienced it with Evie that summer. That is until her father made them leave.

“What?” Her voice was as light as a feather.
