Chapter Eight

It was still storming when Brandi woke up.

Her head was throbbing with the start of a headache. It wasn’t helped by the low thump, thump, thump echoing from somewhere far away. The harder she tried to ignore it, the louder it got.

Jason let out a low growl that was more wolf-like than human and rolled over as he grunted, “Coming.”

Brandi was still fighting to wake up, but she knew it was likely a werewolf knocking at the bedroom door. Apparently, Jason had an open-door policy with his cabin. Her body tensed with fear, but Jason didn’t seem as concerned. He rolled out of bed, completely naked, showing off his firm, rounded ass as he stretched and rubbed at the back of his neck.

The door rattled again.

It was going to be amazing if the frame wasn’t cracked. Werewolves, it seemed, didn’t knock like humans, but at least this one was knocking. Last night, Paul the would-be Werewolf rapist just walked in as if he owned the place.

The pounding kept on and Jason shouted, “Okay!”

Again the knocking stopped for about a minute while Jason pulled on his jeans, bitching under his breath, but whoever it was didn’t have much patience.

The knocking started again.

Obviously, Jason didn’t have patience either. “I’m coming! Go downstairs. I’m getting dressed!”

Werewolves were clearly not morning people. Though, it honestly didn’t feel like morning anymore, but regardless, they didn’t seem to wake up on the bright side of the bed.

“He has a goddamn phone.” Jason buttoned his jeans. “Stay here, darlin’. I just have to see what he wants.”

“Who is it?”

“One of my alphas.” Jason headed toward the door, but then said under his breath, “The pain-in-the-ass alpha.”

“I heard that!” a voice called from downstairs. It was lower than Jason’s, gruffer, with a dark edge of authority that kept the hair on Brandi’s arms up as he added, “Jason, I can smell what you don’t want to tell me! You better get your ass down here! Right now!”

“Are you in trouble?” Brandi asked in concern.

“Probably.”

Brandi watched him go. Then she heard those big feet of his as he stomped down the stairs, and she found herself more than a little curious. She must’ve lost her mind sometime in the night because the last thing she should want to see is an alpha werewolf when the regular ones were so menacing, but she couldn’t help herself.

She threw on Jason’s hand-me-downs and deliberately avoided looking in the mirror. She didn’t want to know what she looked like this morning. She opened the bedroom door and hurried down the stairs. Jason had a clock in the living room and she noticed that it was well past noon, like she’d originally suspected.

The two men weren’t talking, likely they’d heard her coming, and she squared her shoulders as she walked into the kitchen.

She stopped, temporarily stunned, because an alpha wolf looked nothing like she’d expected. She’d come to see Werewolves as very salt-of-the-earth men, but this one could easily be perceived as a high-powered, bad-boy business executive in the human world.
