Carter shifted and jumped into the middle of the stream. He adjusted to the creek’s temperature quickly, enjoying the water’s caress over the rough pads of his paws. He chuffed at Samantha before using his claws to splash in her direction. She turned her back to him and removed her clothes. A little disappointed he wasn’t getting a full-frontal view, Carter turned and splashed out of the creek, ready to explore the different scenery full of new smells. He’d never understood his family’s need to settle down in the crowded area of Foxhollow. Even with a population of a couple hundred, claustrophobia settled in his gut every time he visited.

Didn’t they know a bear was meant to roam? Since he’d graduated high school he’d worked different rigging and pipeline jobs across the state. He’d crabbed and volunteered to find missing and misguided adventurists from the lower forty-eight. He’d met people and shifters from every walk of life. Challenges suited his nature. It never once occurred to him to settle down with a mate like Ray or Grant had, or fight over a piece of land like his parents and the Taylors.

Samantha rushed past him in bear form with a graceful lope not often seen in shifter bears. He thought about that single tear that’d escaped her golden eyes. He hated causing that tear. He’d been a jerk. Not to mention, with his entire family banded together, they must come across as a bunch of bullies. Not their intent, but perceptions could be damaging. Samantha’s hurt opened up a part of himself he didn’t think existed.

When they returned to mediation, he’d take the chance to make things right in a way that mattered. Even though he barely spent any time at home, he still had all those lugs to fall back on if he needed a break from all the roaming. They’d forgive him for giving up a measly five acres.

No more games. No more pissing match between the Taylors and the Wrights.

Samantha stopped her run in front of a tall hemlock tree. The lower branches full of green needles pointed toward the ground. She dropped to her back beneath the branches and rolled back and forth using the ground as if it were scratching post. She stopped long enough to chuff in his direction.

A bear welcome for him to join her.

A small stirring rumbled low in his gut and soon took on a life of its own in a way that engulfed his entire body. Hunger. Need. Want. A challenge. Holy shit. A definite wrench thrown into all his big talk about never settling down with a mate. When he’d come up with his earlier plan to distract Samantha with what appeared to be an attraction to him, he’d never thought he’d feel an equal attraction to her this fast or this strong.

Carter moved forward to join her in the back rubbing, but he caught the scent of nearby humans. He lifted onto his back feet and tilted his nose in the air.
