teeth than a human. Plus, as her Lupa, Jackie would never risk Kaylie in any way.
    “So,” Kaylie asked conversationally as she and Jackie worked on their furry patient. “Where did you find him?”
    “About two miles northwest of the compound.” Dean told her, his voice louder to be heard over the buzzing of the electric razor.
    “Get the asshole who shot him?”
    “Saving him was priority.”
    Neither woman responded until they got their first look at the creature’s bare flesh. “Hand me those… Thanks.” Kaylie prodded into the side wound with the large tweezers Jackie expertly set in her hand. “Damn.
    He’s already started to heal around the bullet. I’m sorry big guy.” After several minutes of silence, Kaylie let out a triumphant grunt. “Got you, sucker.” When she dropped the object into the metal pan Jackie held in her hand, the women stared at it for a moment, looked at each other, and then dropped their gazes back to the pan.
    “What is it?” Ben asked.
    “It’s a silver bullet,” Jackie whispered. “An actual silver bullet.
    What the hell?”
    The twitching of a paw caught her attention. “He’s coming around.”
    “No way,” Kaylie responded in disbelief. “I gave him enough sedative to knock him out a couple of hours.” While Kaylie readied another needle, Jackie half-turned to set the shallow pan on the stool she had pushed toward the head of the bed, and froze.
    Actually, everyone in the room froze.
    A slice of fear skated up Jackie’s spine. She knew better. Knew to keep her arms and legs inside the car at all times, and to keep them away from snapping teeth. But somehow, in less than a blink of an eye, her wrist and the majority of her left hand found it’s way into the brown wolf’s dangerous jaw. While the animal wasn’t crushing her bones like tissue paper, it’s razor-sharp teeth had penetrated the glove and was sinking into bare flesh. He didn’t bite through though. No. This was a tell-me-what’s-going-on-before-I-tear-off-your-hand maneuver.
    Jackie looked into amber eyes full of intelligence, determination and pain, and rushed to explain. “I’m a doctor. You’ve been hurt. Shot actually, and you have several other wounds we’re tending to. We’re trying to help you, not hurt you further. We know you’re a shifter.” While she’d hoped her last words would reassure him, they instead caused him to clamp down just a fraction further, still not drawing blood, but with enough pressure to send her heart racing.
    She licked her dry lips. The animal’s eyes followed the nervous gesture with a human-like intensity that shocked her. “There are four of us here. My Alpha, another male shifter and a human doctor. A vet actually.” She drew in a deep breath, and then let it out. “The bullet is out. We need you to shift so we can stitch up your wounds.” For what seemed like forever the wolf simply stared at her, his breathing deep and uneven. A rustle sounded from her left, on the animal’s blind side. “Don’t move,” she said at the same time the creature jerked his head. The instinctive reaction to an unseen threat shoved one of his canines through her skin and ripped the thin glove. Jackie winced. While it wasn’t the worst pain she’d ever felt, it still hurt like the dickens.
    Suddenly a powerful surge of energy filled the room, causing the hair on her body to stand on end. Two seconds later a man lay on the bed where the wolf had been.
    And what a man he was.
    The buzzed dark brown hair topped a rugged, raw-boned face. His olive complexion, though pale from pain and blood-loss did nothing to detract from his strong features. His body was a perfect V-shape, broad shoulders tapering down to narrow hips with ropes of muscle upon muscle everywhere the eye wandered.
    The light furring of hair on his chest arrowed down to a set of delicious six-pack abs and then flared once again at his groin. While a naked man wasn’t a new vision for Jackie, the fact,
