Chapter 17

The news about Meghan finding wolf paw prints in the snow out by Peter’s old house set his heart pounding even harder. That she was attempting to see if his wife’s ghost was there was bad enough.

Peter should have known Meghan would ask someone to take her out to his old place at some time or other. Jessup was a good man but unarmed. Peter was certain he was unaware of the trouble she might find herself in if she tangled with his wife’s ghost.

Nobody knew if Rollins had weapons stashed somewhere. They hadn’t found any yet, but if he was running as a wolf and had them, Rollins would have had to hide them somewhere.

Peter assumed if Meghan had seen Lena, she would have told him, so that had to be good news at least. But what if Rollins had been using the old homestead as a hideaway? They needed to check out all the abandoned places everywhere.

Now Meghan was stuck there without any weapons to protect either of them, and Peter couldn’t drive fast enough to reach her. Five other vehicles were headed their way to help in the search. But at least he and all the men were heavily armed.

As soon as they arrived twenty minutes later, Peter was glad that Meghan and Jessup were fine. He organized the search teams right away, and the tow truck drove up after that, hooking up to pull the SUV out of the snowbank.

Jessup looked guilty that he’d brought Meghan here, but Peter knew it had been all Meghan’s idea and Jessup hadn’t known Peter hadn’t wanted her to come here.

He took her aside and asked, “Are you all right?”

“Cold, but yeah, I’m okay.”

He didn’t want to ask her about Lena when all the others could overhear them. If her ghost was roaming the place, he could imagine word getting out to the rest of the pack, and those who thought he shouldn’t take a new mate would object to it even more.

He ran his hand over Meghan’s arm, and she quickly said, “Don’t touch me, Peter.”

He pulled his hand away from her as if she’d scalded him, unable to mask the hurt of the rejection, but the notion Lena could be watching sent an icy chill through his body.

Meghan glanced back at the house.

“Lena’s here?” he whispered, feeling like a dark cloud had settled over his soul.

“I don’t know. But it isn’t a good idea to show any affection toward me if she is,” Meghan said softly.

Hell. Peter glanced at the SUV as it was pulled clear of the snowbank. “I’ll see you later.” He hated not being able to touch Meghan, to hug her, and to kiss her goodbye. Yet he hated that his late wife could be watching them and feeling bad that Peter was interested in a new she-wolf, as crazy as that sounded.

“I’ll…see you tonight then.” He hoped Meghan wouldn’t cancel all their plans tonight because she was upset about this.

He should have been the one to open Meghan’s car door for her, but Jessup took care of her instead.
