Chapter Ten – Elina

She had been horrible to him, and she was trying to understand why. All she could come up with was her fear that everything was starting to unravel, and she didn’t want Artem to walk out of her life as suddenly as he had walked into it.

“Have you lived here all of your life?” he asked, looking out of the window as they drove.

“Yes. I was born in a house down that street,” she said, pointing down a wide road that was lined with cherry trees. “I remember the cherry blossom in the spring. I used to think it was snow in the summer time. And you?”

“A small village called Multa, near the Altai Mountains. We were very poor, but happy. I loved to range through the forests as a bear with my brothers.”

“It’s what I love about living here.” She looked across to him. “What’s Grizzly Hollows like?”

“Similar to your town. They have been very welcoming to us.”

“I’m sorry if I was mean about Vadik,” she said as they drove through town. She could see Artem looking around; he was nervous for sure. “Are the men who are after you very bad?”

“Yes.” He sighed and tried to relax. “If they truly are still after us.”

“I would say maybe it’s time you found out, but I know it’s not that easy.”

“Not at all.” He smiled. “Enough about our past. What about our future? And I do not mean where we live and what jobs we do. If we could be anything, what would it be?”

“I don’t know,” she said, shaking her head as if with a sense of freedom. “I always thought my life would be here, that I would work for Mr. Harrington and run in the mountains with my children one day.” She risked a sidelong glance at him. “But this case with Jim has made me question that. I thought a move to the city would be the thing for me. But my tiger hates the thought.”

“Tiger!”

“Yes. Oh, of course, we have not been properly introduced. What are you?”

“I am a bear, and many of the shifters in Grizzly Hollows are bears, so I just assumed you would be too.”

“Then you assume too much.” She grinned. “I am a ferocious tigress, so watch out.”

“I can’t wait,” he said, and he slid his hand across the small space between them and squeezed her thigh, making a warm fuzzy feeling spread out through her whole body.

“Good, because we are here.” She parked the car where she had left it this morning, and got out. Artem followed, stretching, giving her a chance to admire his toned body before he took a deep breath.

“I’ve missed the mountains and I’ve only been gone for two days,” he said. “Ready?”

“Yes, although we have to go down into the trees over there to shift.”

“Then let’s go.” He took her hand, as they walked along the path, and then as it widened, he draped his arm over her shoulder, holding her close to him.
