Chapter Eleven

“I know you don’t like this, sweet girl.” Parker held the syringe aloft as Brandy rubbed the fur between Midir’s ears. “I’ll have what I need after one prick and you can be on your way.”

Brandy stroked Midir’s muzzle, trying to distract the wolf from the blood Parker was collecting. Once a year, she and Parker did full physicals on all the wolves to keep their records up to date and look for potential problems. Wolves didn’t always reveal their illnesses in obvious ways, and she wanted to stay on top of anything that might be a hazard to them.

So far the biggest hazard had been Hank Swift. Luckily, after Alator’s warning, she hadn’t seen much of the ass or his traps. Maybe he’d finally gotten the message between the Sheriff’s requests, her yelling at him, and Alator’s razor-sharp teeth display. Whatever the case, things at the sanctuary had been good, and she hoped it stayed that way.

Because other things were good too. Really good. Last night with Reardon had been amazing. Not only the sex, but the dinner conversation as well. She’d enjoyed watching him interact with Dylan, Meredith, and Parker. He’d even had some quick replies to Chella that had been entertaining. He’d appeared to be in tune with her too, picking up that she didn’t exactly approve of Chella. Was she that obvious? She didn’t think so. She’d reconciled to allow Parker to do what he wanted. The best she could do was be there for him should Chella break his heart.

“Okay, this beauty is good to go.” Parker moved to stand next to Brandy so he could look Midir in the face. “Sorry, Midir. You know it’s nothing personal.” He removed his gloves and gave the wolf a scratch under the chin.

Midir let out a huff as Brandy released the harness they used to keep the wolves in place as they worked with them.

“I don’t think she forgives you yet, Park.” Brandy opened the clinic door to let Midir out.

“Eh, women. They hold grudges. Fortunately, I’m charming. Midir will not be able to resist me.”

Brandy shook her head. “Ready to use all that charm on Albi?”

“Round her up.”

They ran through the physical for Albi with ease and soon only one wolf remained on the roster.

“I know we collected some things when we tended to Alator’s leg,” Parker said, “but I’d like to do a full physical so we have everything neat and tidy in our records.”

“This is why we get along so well.” Brandy squeezed Parker’s shoulder. “You’re a big nerd like me when it comes to record keeping.”

“Guilty. I love data.” Parker opened the clinic door to let Albi out. “Have you seen Alator this morning?” He squinted into the nearby woods, moving his head in a slow, scanning motion.

“Not since breakfast.” Breakfast. Where the big, black wolf hadn’t left her side. She half expected him to crawl into her lap and share her cinnamon toast. He’d been like that all night. Clingy. Snuggly. Wanting to jump up on the bed, which she’d never been one to allow.
