“Let’s talk in the house. There’s a bit more privacy in there,” he started toward a large log home.
This day was becoming more surreal by the moment for Jane. Of course, Mr. Hot and Hunky had to secretly be a wolf shifter who lived in the middle of the woods in what was effectively a log mansion. And he wasn’t just any wolf shifter. He just happened to be the king of the herd or whatever the fuck he was that Gerri had said.
“Giles, can you give us some privacy?” Mason asked before turning to Jane to explain. “He’s one of my butlers.”
“Of course.” She acted as if it were a normal thing to have a butler or several. Who didn’t? Right?
“Please.” He motioned for her and Gerri to have a seat on the couch. “Can I get you a drink?” he asked.
“Whiskey and make it strong,” Gerri replied.
“Jane?” he asked.
“Same.”
“Coming right up.”
Jane watched as Mason poured three drinks and carried them over to her and Gerri. He handed two of the drinks off and kept one for himself before taking a seat in the chair across from the couch.
“Thanks. Now, explain,” Gerri said and took a sip of her whiskey. “Ahh, the good stuff.”
“Only the best,” Mason said before continuing. “My old pack is coming after me.” He took a sip of his whiskey and set the glass on a coaster.
“What do you mean by that? Why would they do that?” Gerri asked.
“Because I found my mate, and they don’t want me passing on my gifts to another generation,” he said.
“What gift could be so horrible that they wouldn’t want you to pass it on?” Gerri asked.
“I’m a dream weaver,” he whispered.
TWENTY-TWO
“You’re a what?” Jane nearly choked on her drink. Did that mean what she thought it meant? What the hell else could it be? Was that the reason she’d had the sexy dreams about Mason? Had he been responsible?
“I’m a dream weaver,” he said again, a little louder this time, making full eye contact with Jane.
“You didn’t!” she gasped, jumping to her feet.
Gerri eyed the pair up before setting her drink down. “I’m going to go say hi to everyone and see how I can help out,” she said before rushing out of the house.
“Please, Jane. Let me explain.”
“I can’t believe it. You lied about being a shifter. You acted like a dog to get me to let you in. I confided in you! Then I find out that you somehow have the ability to jump into my dreams, making me have sexy dreams about you!” Her blood boiled in her veins. She wanted to throttle him for everything he had done.
“It doesn’t work that way, Jane. I didn’t make you have sexy dreams. Nor was that ever my intention. When I hopped into your dreams, I was already on your mind in a very sexy manner.”
“Liar!” Jane shouted, not wanting to admit the truth.
“You can hear the truth in my words. You know in your heart and in that damn stubborn head of yours that I’m not lying. You just don’t want to admit how much you want me. How much I turn you on. You’d rather stick your head in the sand and let a good thing pass you by,” he shouted back.
“Why didn’t you tell me you were a shifter?” she asked.
“Because we’ve hadonedate, and I didn’t know you knew about us. I would have told you. Sooner rather than later. It’s just too hard to hide from someone, and I don’t really have any desire to hide who I really am when I’m in a relationship with you.”
“And the whole showing up as a dog on my back deck?” she asked, still pissed but slightly less. His answers were just too damn good for her liking. “How did you even know where I lived? Did you follow me home from work?” she asked.
“That was purely an accident.”
