Excerpt From My WIP - A Cowboy Werewolf Shifter Menage Romance coming soon!...
“In other words, the
sooner Jordyn leaves the better,” Reid said looking at his father.
His temper flared inside of him at the thought of his mate leaving.
“Thank you gentleman for coming. I'd like to speak with my beta
now.”
“Certainly alpha,”
they said leaving he and Travis alone.
“You look like
someone just poured a bunch of hot rocks own your drawers,” Travis
said leveling a firm gaze at him. “What's up?”
He knew he was
supposed to be able to tell Travis anything considering they're
practically mated but apart of him was ashamed to admit that he had
feelings for another human. Travis had seen the hurt that Audrie had
put him through. He'd been there as he swore them off forever and
here he was again about to confess that he was falling for another
one.
Travis stood. “You're
gonna tell me anyway so it might as well be now.”
He fingered the top of
his coffee cup. He suddenly felt like a kid being pulled into the
principal's office. “I don't want her to go.”
He snuck a glance at
his mate. Travis nodded his head slowly.
“That much I
figured.”
“How?”
“You're my mate
Reid. I know you better than you know yourself. Besides I could
tell by the way you're fussing all over her.”
“Well don't sound so
mad about it.”
“Reid I know how
this plays out because we've been through this before.”
“This time it's
different.”
“How?” Travis
asked.
“Because she's our
mate.” Reid stood and approached him. “Why you haven't scented
that is beyond me.”
“Who says I haven't?
You don't think I can smell that perfume all around here? It's
making me crazy. But I just don't want my life ripped apart by
someone who is not able to accept us for who we really are.”
“We don't know that
she's like that?” Reid said quietly. He didn't want Travis to be
right. But apart of him thought maybe he was.
“And what makes you
think she isn't?”
Reid remained quiet.
“It doesn't matter
any way. Her friend is coming to pick her up.”
Reid growled louder
this time. Travis flinched.
“How much of her
have you scented? You haven't laid claim to her? Or did you?”
“I wouldn't do that
without you. As for the scent, I had to carry her to the car and
then it happened again when I helped her out of the car.”
Fab snippet, Clare, well done!
