Chapter 5

“I can’t believe Ryan hired both of us at the same time,” Hanna said as Phoenix drove her around Silver Town to see the sights in the downtown area and then took her out to the ski resort.

“I do. My sister, Carmela, had told me Ryan was checking out the Silver Town pack to see how he could make Green Valley more like it, more wolf-run. Silver Town had the advantage of being built by wolves from the ground up, and they didn’t let others settle in their town unless they were wolves. Ryan took over the pack in Green Valley and has been trying to change things ever since.”

“That’s great. We need more wolf-run towns. I love Silver Town. I love all the wood carvings of wolves at the entrances to several of the establishments. And that old ghostly Victorian inn is pretty neat. Too bad somebody hasn’t renovated it.”

“I agree. Do you ski?” Phoenix drove her to his sister’s house.

“I do. So the resort will be close enough to Green Valley to go skiing. What about you?”

“Yeah. That’s another reason I liked the idea of moving into the area. By the way, my sister’s going to think there is more going on between us than there is, so ignore her if she makes any mention of it.”

Hanna sighed. “Here I thought you took the job in Green Valley and are staying with me at the pack leaders’ house because there is more between us.”

He chuckled, but he didn’t agree or disagree with her. He needed a job. He got a job. What more could he ask for? Dating the she-wolf? Once he had met her, that was inevitable, despite all his denials to the contrary. He couldn’t imagine dating a shy, retiring wolf. If he had any say in it, Hanna was not dating Max, the Navy SEAL.

She smiled as if she knew just what he was thinking.

When they finally arrived at the house, Carmela welcomed Hanna as if she were her long-lost sister. “I’m so glad to meet you. I was worried about what happened to you and Phoenix last night at the pub. I’m relieved he was there for you.”

Hanna sighed. “I had hoped to get a news story out of it.”

“Oh, sure. If I was in your line of business, I would too. How did the job interview go? If you didn’t get the job, I was going to contact our own editor and see if he needs an investigative reporter,” Carmela said as she set plates of spaghetti on the table and Michael brought them glasses of water.

“Thanks so much, Carmela. In truth, I didn’t get the job, but Ryan McKinley gave me one instead. I’m really looking forward to working for him. And he gave Phoenix a job too.”

Her mouth agape, Carmela abruptly shifted her gaze to Phoenix. He smiled, knowing just what she was thinking. He’d taken the job to be with Hanna.

“Ryan wants to expand his pack,” Phoenix said.

“Well, I’m glad about it.
