CHAPTER FIFTEEN

Rhen

Every word I said made the situation worse. What the hell had I done? I should have just lied to her about Rory and let it at that. Between last night outside Broken Tusk and the damn good romp in the bed, I had somehow fooled myself into thinking that she’d secretly be ok with it since she’d admitted to being with another shifter.

“You didn’t think at any point that you’d have a need to tell me you’re a damn seal? That there was no possibility of me ever waking up next to you covered in fur?”

Hell, after yesterday and waking up mid shift, she was right. She could have been right there beside me in bed, saw me shift and slit my throat before I’d ever know she had found out my secret. But I was still fighting for this. Whatever this was.

“You really think I could have convinced a nineteen year old headstrong Kodiak Sesi that it was ok that her boyfriend was a shifter? I had to stop you from running out to get you to listen just now.”

Crossing her arms she glared at me. She couldn’t argue with me and she knew it.

“Bad dives my ass, why not just shift?”

I shook my head. “Koda, it doesn’t work like that. Seals aren’t fish, I still need air, unlike your damn blonde merman.”

I hated how bitter those words tasted. I’d caused this entire situation, it was my fault that damn fish was even in the picture. She’d obviously moved on with him, and had his initials tattooed on her hip.

“You leave him out of this. This isn't about him,” she hissed at me.

“You’re right, it's not, it's about us. But what I don’t get is you’ll accept him for what he is but you question me?” There was that growl in my voice again. Damn it.

I needed control of myself. Sex with Koda should have been enough to take the edge off my need to shift. But between the ever growing jealousy I felt towards that damn fish shifter and the anger at myself, I was right back to square one and pushing myself to the limit again. The partial shift I had done to prove my point to her had my skin itching again, and her scent on my skin was not doing me any favors.

I should have just shifted the whole way and warmed myself by the fire. At least then I couldn't continue to open my mouth and screw things up like I was.

“He didn't lie and try to make a life with me!” she yelled as she pushed me again.

My phone buzzed on the table beside us and I felt my jaw twitch in anger. That thing could go for weeks and not ring. I’d had Koda back in my life for nearly twenty four hours and I was in demand by everyone but her.

“Probably Dez, you should get that.” Her voice dripped with sarcasm as the phone started to replay the generic ringtone.
