Chapter Ten

Maya had never seen so many wolves in one place. They were all different—ranging in sizes, their fur various shades, from black, to white, to brown, to russet. One wolf in particular caught her attention. He—she assumed the wolf was a him from his size—was massive, with dark grey fur and the golden yellow eyes of his kind. But it was more his position in the group than his size or color that alerted her to who he was. He stood at the head of the pack, flanked by a smaller wolf with russet fur on one shoulder, and a tall, lean, lighter grey wolf at the other. Numerous other wolves lurked behind him, all of them watching her. Low growls issued from their barrel chests, their nostrils flaring as they scented her. She was struck by the sudden fear that they could smell sex on her. The thought made her embarrassed and vulnerable. Exposed.

There was no doubting that this was the alpha Chance had been talking about.

She stood, frozen, as the huge wolf trotted forward and sniffed her, his lips drawn back over his sharp teeth, his muzzle wrinkled. It made for a terrifying sight, and for a moment she thought he was going to lunge forward and attack. She wouldn’t stand a chance if he did—the powerful muscle bunched in the animal’s body, combined with teeth and claws, made for a lethal combination.

But instead of attacking her, the animal stepped back.

Just like when she’d watched Chance change in the forest, the fur on the beast’s body began to shimmer. His body realigned, bringing him back to two feet, and his muzzle retracted, leaving a human face beneath. It was like watching one of those 3-d cards where, when the angle is altered, the picture changed. One moment, she was looking at one thing, and the next he was something else altogether.

The man he became was almost as big as the wolf he’d been. He had long dark hair, his jaw shadowed with beard growth. His shoulders were bulked with muscle, just as they had been when he’d been wolf. She didn’t allow herself to look any farther down.

As though his shift had been a cue to the others, the wolves surrounding him also began to change back. The russet-furred wolf at his side morphed into a beautiful young woman with flame red hair, and the light-grey wolf became a handsome, blond man. The wolves behind them were a mix of men and women, and she felt all their eyes on her, assessing her. It was strange how she was the one who felt utterly exposed, when they were all naked and she was fully clothed.

“What’s the meaning of this, Chance?” the alpha growled, focusing on the man still trying to protect her with his body. “You know we don’t bring humans into the compound.”

Chance nodded. “I know, Holton, but something has happened and I didn’t know what else to do. I need your advice.”

The man, Holton, narrowed his eyes at her.
