NINE

Noah sat at his computer, his panther hungry for a sight of Maya. He’d give anything to touch her again. Fucking hell, he had problems. He’d been with her one night, and she’d crawled under his skin, pushing emotions he tried never to deal with to the surface.

His gaze strayed to her shades. She still wasn’t home. He needed to focus on his work and stop staring at her apartment like a love-struck idiot.

The light in her apartment turned on and objects went flying. He shot to his feet, wondering what could have upset her to the point she was throwing things. He shouldn’t feel so tempted to go calm her, but the panther urged him to go to her, to make it all better.

Before he had a chance to rethink things, he was knocking at her door. He heard her growl, and she jerked the door open.

She blinked, huffing and puffing out angry breaths, her face flushed with color. “Hi.”

“Are you okay?”

“Yes.” She pasted a smile on her lips that didn’t reach her eyes. “I thought you had work to do?”

He nodded and moved forward, pushing his way into her house. He glanced around and found the notebooks she’d thrown against the wall. He marched to them and picked them up off the floor, turning to hand them back to her. “These must have been terrible to you for them to get thrown across the room.”

She frowned, glancing at her closed blinds and then back at him. “How do you know...? You know what, never mind. Listen, I’m not really in the mood for company right now.”

The hurt in her voice stabbed his gut. “I can help. Just talk to me.”

She shook her head and glanced upward, letting out her breaths slowly. “You can’t make stupid people smart.”

He took another step toward her, and she took one back.

“I can’t make stupid people smart, but maybe setting a panther loose on them could be entertaining.”

She lifted her lips into a soft smile that tugged at his heart. “I’ll keep that in mind.”

He stopped by the door, not leaving, but not making moves to get near her. “Got any vodka?”

She widened her eyes and smiled. “Yes. I do. Have a seat. I’ll make you my famous coconut mojitos.”

He didn’t know what the hell a coconut mojito was, but her disposition had gone from angry and hurt to excited in a heartbeat.

She rushed off to the kitchen and pulled out a blender and started rummaging through her fridge. “Come sit by the kitchen. You can talk to me while I make us drinks.”

He glanced down at his hard-on. He’d need to figure out how to make it go away. It appeared this was going to be one of those nights the female wanted to talk. He’d read about it. Apparently they liked to speak out their frustrations. Noah liked to run as a panther and hunt to get rid of frustration. Or when it came to the worries in the form of too many thoughts of Maya, he had to take cold showers.
