“You can feel it, can’t you?”
I turned to see Alec, shirt off, walking toward me. His gorgeous eyes pulled me in right away and I had to fight to break eye contact. Fortunately, there was plenty to look at. All those muscles. Holy hell, he was easy on the eyes. My gaze drifted down to his rounded shoulders and his biceps, then I moved lower, checking out his six pack which took me right to his happy trail. Finally, I was staring at the bulge in his pants.
And let me tell you, it was an impressive bulge.
“My eyes are up here,” he said.
Fuck. What was wrong with me? I looked back up at him. “I see you’re making a habit of not wearing a shirt.”
“Shifting with clothes on isn’t a great idea. I’d ruin too many shirts if I did that,” he said. “Don’t worry, you’ll get used to it.”
“I grew up in a pack of shifters, naked people don’t bother me,” I said.
“No?” He raised a brow. “Good.”
Alec didn’t waste any time unbuttoning and dropping his jeans. Turns out, the man didn’t bother with underwear. Not that he needed to be concerned about what he was packing. I might be a virgin, but I’d seen my share of dicks. Alec’s was right up there with the largest I’d seen.
“You can close your mouth now,” he said.
I knew my face had to be as red as my hair. I’d seen almost everyone I knew naked at some point. But Alec was different. Seeing him naked awakened things inside me I thought were dormant.
All this time, I thought I wasn’t big on sex. Turned out, I wasn’t around the right kind of male.
There were attractive members of my old pack. Tyler was gorgeous and I knew it, but the whole regularly trying to kill me thing eliminated the attraction.
I didn’t have that issue with Alec. If anything, he was even more alluring because he’d technically helped save my life. That had to be it. The whole Prince Charming, damsel in distress thing.
“I suppose it was only fair that I return the favor,” he said. “You look pretty good naked, too.”
“Uh, thanks.” Internally, I was wondering if the two of us could be naked together.
He turned but I called out to him. “Wait! You owe me an explanation from earlier.”
“Later,” he said.
“You gotta give me something,” I demanded. “Where were you all day?”
“Trying to figure out if your life is in danger,” he said.
“You’re messing with me,” I said.
“Just trust me a little bit, okay?” he said.
“I don’t know you well enough to trust you,” I replied.
“Forget I said anything earlier today. It wasn’t a big deal,” he said.
“You’re lying,” I said.
“Look, I don’t want to concern you if there’s nothing to worry about. You said it yourself, I get paranoid. I’m sure it’s nothing,” he said.
“Then tell me,” I said.
“I already warned you that your pack would come looking for you,” he reminded me. “I thought they might be close. But now I’m not sure.”
My heart felt like it fell into my stomach. “Are you going to send me away?”
“You don’t stand a chance out there if you can’t shift,” he said. “I can at least buy you that much time.”
