Chapter Ten

Gia prowled the grounds of River's home in her cheetah form, her mind going over the possibilities of ridding herself of the woman now in her mate's bed. Of taking what was rightfully hers.

Humans, a pathetic and weak race. To mate with them was an insult to every shifter. She didn't care if they claimed humans were their true mates; they polluted the gene pool with weak human DNA.

She sat back on her hind legs, her acute hearing picking up the sounds of passion coming from the bedroom and turned away in disgust.

She wanted to be rid of the human who had ensnared her mate, instill herself as the Alpha's mate, then nothing would stop her from cleansing her town of the half-breeds and humans.

River's so-called human mate no doubt would be carefully guarded. First, she needed a plan, a way to get the Black family away. She crept through the dry leafy floor of the surrounding Australian bush.

In the distance she scented smoke on the breeze. No doubt a bush fire had started, not uncommon for this time of year.

Gia stopped, a thought springing into her mind. Dare she? Her cheetah gave a cat chuckle. Oh yes, a perfect plan indeed. The best part was no one would ever be the wiser.

River had kissed Storm soundly, letting her know he needed to head down to the company office and handle a few contracts which required his personal attention. He'd be back by mid morning and to make herself at home.

Storm showered, dressed in a light summer dress, her mind mulling over last night's events, River's words and her feelings.

She took her laptop downstairs; the kitchen was quiet with no one to disturb her while she worked. Despite the heat outside, the villa was comfortably cool inside.

Sipping fruit juice and nibbling on toast, she tried to get some work done. Still, her mind couldn't stay on the job. The words on the screen blurred as she thought more and more about how she wanted to stay here, how River so easily stripped away the barriers around her heart. Why couldn't she give in, surrender to what she really wanted?

She wanted River, and the whole nine yards.

"What ya doing?"

Startled, Storm glanced up at Hawk as he strode into the kitchen, low, torn jeans riding on his hip, his black t-shirt stretched across his torso, displaying his impressive muscles. Hawk reached for the pot of fresh brewed coffee.

"Working."

"What is it you do?"

"I'm a freelance editor for two publishers; I also take on editing work for writers and authors."

"Smart as well as sexy; no wonder River is so smitten."

Despite herself, Storm felt the heat rising into her cheeks at his complement.

"Hush, Hawk, do you wish your brother to tear out your throat if he finds out you've been flirting with his mate?" Maria walked into the kitchen. "Pay no heed to my younger son, my dear, he is an insufferable tease."

She kissed her son's cheek in a display of family affection, which warmed Storm to the heart.
