Morning slowly dawned, and only after Hunter was certain he was still alone, did he finally take care of personal business. There was no worse way to meet a potential hostile party than with your pants down—literally. Afterward, he sat at the edge of the stream and tried to let the burble of the water calm him. The small fish slid along easily with the current, and the long-legged bugs sat on top of the water to avoid getting eaten. Their lives were so simple.

A rustle of leaves brought Hunter’s head up. He scanned the area but didn’t notice anyone. How long would it take for Glenn to convince his father to meet him? A day? A week? He was running low on supplies, and he only had his compass to help him get out of the forest.

What if Glenn didn’t come back?

Hunter shook his head, wishing he’d stop thinking those awful thoughts. He wouldn’t let that be the end. He would search and he would find Glenn, and he would convince him that they belonged together. He would fight to keep that rapturous feeling he’d felt with Glenn. The complete peace he had gained—a peace he had never known.

He wouldn’t give that up easily.

This time he heard footsteps and stood. A moment later a large buck—much too large to be just an animal—stepped out of the brush and into full view. The buck was gorgeous, with a rich pelt and solid hooves, and he was certainly one hunters would be tripping over themselves to get a shot at. His antlers were modest but they were still growing—it being just after winter—but they were already showing just how large and strong they were going to be at full growth.

Hunter stood very still, and it wasn’t long before Glenn came striding out of the brush. He was wearing his own clothes—a simple cotton T-shirt, jeans, and a light jacket with hiking boots—and he looked hot. And when he smiled, Hunter felt his insides untangle, and he managed to smile back. Glenn still smiled that way, the look the same before he’d left for his herd. They didn’t change his mind. Yet.

Glenn stayed beside the large buck, whom Hunter assumed was his father, but his smile encouraged Hunter. The buck turned his head, staring at Hunter with eyes of dark green—a very unusual color for a deer. Glenn had inherited those eyes. But these were harder, more appraising. Hunter stood straight and met that gaze, never once flinching, despite the fact that his mind whirled with all the venomous lies the Knights had told him. But even knowing they were lies didn’t stop the fear, the intimidation. The buck shifter could easily stab him to death with those tines.

The air suddenly shimmered and pulsed around the buck, just like it did around Glenn when he’d shifted. In a heartbeat, Hunter stared at a very large and imposing man. He was fully dressed, and that rocked Hunter for a moment. It seemed it was possible for some shifters to stay dressed even when they shifted.
