“Jason,” I whispered.
Mmm. That was nice.
I laughed. “Nice? That’s all you got?”
I think I exhausted my balls on that one. Your pussy sucked me dry.
“So romantic.”
He pulled back and slipped out of me. I made a little whimper of disappointment, and I heard him chuckle. He rolled me to face him, and gave me the biggest smile I had ever seen.
“Mine.”
“Of course.” I put a hand on his cheek. “I love you.”
His fingers traced the contours of my face. “I love you, Delia. Under the sun, under the moon, under the blue of day, or the dark of night. As long as you are there, I am complete.”
Epilogue
I was wearing a blindfold.
Sadly, I was also full dressed.
I could hear my wife giggling with my sister as they moved around me in the house.
“Come on, you two. You’re killing me. It’s been two hours that I’ve been sitting here. What are you doing?”
“Patience,” Delia said. “Just hang on.”
There was more gigging and then Cora crowed happily. “Here they are!”
A moment later, Delia took my arm and levered me off the couch and led me…well. I guessed toward the front door of the house. I heard the latch a moment later and knew I was right.
A blast of cold arctic air blasted around me. We were in for a cold winter if my wolf’s olfactory senses were working. There was snow on the wind, again.
Cora and Delia walked me out to the porch and had me stand still again. This time I tapped my foot. If she was going to keep me blindfolded, I wanted something for it.
“Okay, I think it’s time.”
Delia slid her hands under the material and slipped it up over my head. She dropped a kiss on my nose.
You can pay me back later for the blindfold.
Oh, I will.
Stepping to my right, she revealed the little ruse.
Two brand new vehicles sat in the driveway.
“Wait…” I tossed a look at her. “What?”
“The old pickup died at the airport last weekend when we were heading back to Vancouver,” she explained. “I was tired of worrying about you and it. So, I bought two new ones for us. Land Rover is mine and the Tundra is yours.”
“Damn it, Delia. You shouldn’t have done this.”
I wasn’t really disappointed. I had been worried about the old Ford dying in a bad spot.
Before I could object any further, she tugged my hand and led me out to the Tundra and popped the driver’s door open. “Go on, climb in.”
My wife was up to something else.
I obeyed and climbed into the massive cab, situating myself. It was a beautiful vehicle with just a few dozen miles on it. It almost seemed a shame to keep it confined to Juneau for its existence.
The passenger door opened and when I looked over, there was a note there. My name was on the front, and it was in Delia’s handwriting.
I shook my head, and opened it.
Jason—
As of the date of this letter, all of your debts are paid off. Loans, credit cards, home equity, business lines of credit. All of it. Done.
And, as a future enforcer of the St. Terese pack, it’s important you have discretionary spending that doesn’t have my name on it to help those as you were once helped. So, you now have a debit line of one million to use as you see fit to help those around you.
You are being set up as the joint holder of all my accounts. I know you said you didn’t need this, but I did. I want to share my life with you, and that’s part of it. I never ever want you to think about money again.
I love you
—Delia.
“Baby, you didn’t have to do any of this.”
“I did. For me. For us. For the pack. It’s important to me.” She looked around the truck. “And you really needed a new truck.”
“I know…but there were so many memories in that old one.”
We’ll make new ones.
Her smile was filthy.
The End, for now…

EXPLORING ALASKA
The Juneau Packs 3
Get it now at Amazon!
Five friends.
One Summer.
Everything changes.
We wanted to celebrate the end of college. The end of all the hard work, the beginning of our new lives. Brandy had the perfect place:
Alaska.
Addi
I needed the vacation to get away from the hell that was my life. Alaska was about as far away as I could get from Oklahoma and Africa. I felt safe, and meeting a really hot guy, with a crazy secret, was the adventure I needed.
What I didn't need was him hiding a secret from me that would pull us a part and nearly break my will to keep going. Handsome, sweet, intelligent--and a liar.
Patrick
I was jealous of my brother finding his mate, for about two hours when mine walked into my life. Addi was perfect and amazing, and had her life under control despite her terrible past.
But when something I've hidden for years comes rushing into my life, I was sure she was gone. There was no saving what we had. But there was someone out there who wanted to hurt her and her friends.
Wild coyotes couldn't tear us apart, but my one lie threatens to destroy my world...

Five friends.

Everything changes.
We wanted to celebrate the end of college. The end of all the hard work, the beginning of our new lives. Brandy had the perfect place:
Alaska
Jess
There were problems with the house, the wildlife, the land. The only thing that wasn't a problem was the neighbor: Garrett Pauler. We hired him to fix the house, and he did way more than that.
There was something in the woods though. Something that didn't want us there, something that would go to any lengths to get rid of us. But it shared the woods with something-- someone determined to keep us safe.
Garrett
The old Yeil place was a disaster, but I wasn't above the challenge. The challenge lay in the gorgeous woman who was waiting for me there. Jess Smythe. My mate.
As human as they came, she was everything I dreamed and wanted in my life. I just didn't expect to show her my wolf before I convinced her we were meant to be.
But there was something in the woods that would go to any lengths to get rid of the women, and of me and my pack. And it would force me to make decisions that would change the course of my mate's life...

DARKWATER
The Elemental Dragons 1
The water called her name.
Maybe it always had, but it was only when Betsy Tillman slipped into Pine Valley that she could hear it. She wanted to find out why. But Wayne, her boyfriend and partner in crime, wanted to stick to the plan: smash and grab and get the hell out. Money from that was a sure thing, why change it up? Robbery and larceny was her whole life, and she was good at it.
The water was too strong.
Betsy was too tired to resist.
What she discovered in Darkwater was nothing like she had ever seen before. What she found also found her, also needed her. It pulled her in and gave her a way out.
She found her escape.
She found a dragon, named Niko.
He was her answer.
All she needed to do was change everything…
