we’re here.”
    “How do you know for sure?” Katy asked while trying to peer around
Cole for another view.
    “No you don’t,” he latched an arm around her middle. “Careful,
wolves have a strong sense of smell. He’s caught your scent, he just hasn’t pin
pointed us yet, but it won’t be long.”
    “What are we going to do?”
    “There will be more wolves. I don’t want to cause a scene,” Cole
whispered against the her ear sending an explosion of shivers across her body.
    She turned away from him trying to keep her composure and spotted
the fragrance section. “What if we could mask our smell?”
    He tracked her line of vision. “Brains too.” His lips slanted over
hers in a quick, hard kiss. When he pulled away, Cole looked confused for a
second before pulling her to the array of various shaped bottles stacked on the
shelf.
    Her legs felt as if they had turned to slush. Cole had just kissed
her…again…and not because he had to. It was an honest kiss, a lover’s kiss. Not
one given out of lust or in the heat of the moment. Katy had to stop herself
from putting her fingers to her lips. A spray of perfume brought her back from
her thoughts. Cole turned the nozzle on himself and sprayed liberally.
    “Men’s cologne? Seriously?” she asked while trying to wave some of
the scent away.
    “No time. Besides”—he winked—“smells good on you,” Cole took back
her hand. “Just act normal. I won’t let anything happen, I promised remember?” he
whispered so softly she had to strain to hear him.
    Big strong man held onto her hand. Big strong man was promising her
again that he would protect her. Oh how she ached to be able to…at least
believe him. Cole didn’t trust her and she would be stupid to trust him. He
gripped her hand tighter as they passed through the exit and tighter still as
they ran for the car. As scared out of her mind as she was, she couldn’t help
but feel exhilarated. Alive, maybe even for the very first time.
    They dove into the already moving vehicle.
    “About frigging time,” Ash said as she pushed down on the gas pedal.
    Once they were far enough away to be sure they weren’t in any
imminent danger, Cole pulled out a phone. “I need to call DCA. I left an
unconscious demon wolf at the store. He might be able to give us some answers.”
He spoke to Ash as he pushed a speed dial number. He relayed briefly what had
happened to the person on the other end, then snapped the phone shut.
    The perfect couple. That’s what they had
pretended to be earlier on. If there was anyone who knew from experience that
the perfect couple did not exist, it was her. No matter how hard she’d ever tried,
her relationships had never worked out.  Things would always go well until they
had sex. She’d been told that she was overwhelming, that sex with her was too
good. What the hell did that mean? Her last boyfriend had called her a
freak, she hadn’t meant to claw at his back. A little bit of nail action during
sex was normal, wasn’t it ?
    She couldn’t deny that there was an attraction between herself and
Cole. Couldn’t shake the feeling that they would be sexually compatible. Not
that she was the kinky type, but she liked that he probably wouldn’t complain
if she used her nails on him a little.
    Shaking her head to clear her thoughts, she looked out the window
and noticed that the sun was going down fast. She’d always loved nighttime,
especially during a full moon phase. Not this time. Tonight, looking up at the
ominous round globe, Katy felt more vulnerable than ever.
    Both Ash and Cole looked tense. Would they really be able to protect
her from the demon wolves? Cole had promised to keep her safe and she got the
distinct impression that he didn’t give his word lightly.
    They drove through a small town in, God only knew where, stopping at
one of those cheap rent-by-the-hour motels and rented a room. It was small and
seedy.
    “Wash up and then get some rest, we leave in a
