was stunning, but in a big, gym rat kind of way. He looked mean. He looked angry. He looked…decisive. Kalina knew from the moment she set eyes on him that he was the type of person who looked at you and decided right then whether or not he liked you, and if he didn’t, you better stay the fuck out of his way.
“Yo, where the fuck did you come from?” Kino yelled.
And he’s not going to like Kino.
“Thane,” was all the man said as he continued coming on shore.
“Faith,” Kalina said. “Is he one of the good guys or…?”
“I’ve never seen him before in my life,” Faith said. “But holy shit, I totally like what I’m seeing now.”
“Can we help you, man?” Jagger asked, stepping closer to Kino.
Ruby ushered the kids back to their cabin. Hailey, Paisley, Oliver and Rickshaw moved closer to Kino and Jagger. All huddled together like that, Kalina thought they looked like one ragtag gang of misfits. Tattoos and tanned bodies everywhere. The new guy stood out in stark contrast with his pasty skin, but damn if he wasn’t a good-looking hunk of man. Again, Kalina found herself staring at his cock.
“Is that real?” Kalina asked.
Faith didn’t miss a beat and said, “Only one way to find out.”
Faith stepped forward and walked ahead of all the others, until her toes were only a foot or so from the water.
“Hi,” she said. “I’m Faith. It’s not every day that we have someone swim right up to our doorstep. Do you mind telling us who you are before you come any further?”
The man stopped and eyeballed her. He checked her out, starting at her feet and scoping her out all the way to her face, stopping to linger at her tits for a moment. He was one-hundred-percent alpha male and Kalina knew he was a shark. That, or a whale. She’d met a couple of whale shifters in the past. They were the most common of all the sea shifters, other than sharks of course. Looking at his gigantic cock again, she could imagine this guy being a…sperm whale? The thought made her giggle. But if he were a shark or a whale, he had amazing control over his body. Her kind was able to shift into human form as they were exiting the water, but they had to do it quickly. If they remained in the water too long, they’d shift back into shark form. This guy was in no rush, and he seemed to be fine there in his human skin. Like really fine.
Maybe Faith’s right. I need to get laid.
“Where’s Thane?” the guy asked again.
“He’s not here right now,” Faith said. “But I’m sure whatever your problem is, we can help.”
“You seem standoffish,” the guy said.
“We do?” Kino said. “Motherfucker you just walked up on us like…”
The guy turned his head in Kino’s direction and began walking that way.
“…like an umm…”
Kino obviously couldn’t think of anything badass enough to finish his comment, so he stopped and let the silence linger. Kalina looked at the stranger and tried to figure out why he looked familiar.
The Terminator. That’s it. He looks like a super sexy version of The Terminator. All anger and passion and moving on pure will.
Going to the movies was her favorite pastime. At least that was something she could do alone. She could swim to the mainland, change into something comfortable, and watch a movie. She lived vicariously through the women on screen, aching with their heartbreaks, soaring with their happy endings, and crashing whenever it was time to leave and head home to the island and her empty cabin.
“We’re nice people!” Kalina suddenly announced, seeming to surprise everyone on the beach.
The stranger looked her way and then checked her out the same way he had Faith.
“We don’t…bite,” she said. “Well, you know…we do…but we don’t.”
For the first time, the guy’s lips cracked open and his serious expression faltered. The faintest trace of a grin appeared.
“Tell Thane I’ll be back,” he said.
“Umm…okay,” Kalina said.
“Can I please take a message?” Faith said sarcastically. “And tell him who called?”
