on? Dear God. She didn’t know anything about
    the werewolf other than he had given her the time of her life.
     
    Fisting her hands, she hit the wall on either side of her, then paced the length of the
    kitchen. Her ears tickled annoyingly when whispers from upstairs grabbed her
    attention.
     
    Damn it.
     
    She paced the length of the kitchen again, knowing it wouldn’t be hard to explain
    why she was in the kitchen—unable to sleep, wanting a late night snack, there were
    many believable reasons.
     
    Footsteps sounded in the upstairs hallway, her mother’s gentle steps, concern and
    curiosity that one of her cubs wasn’t sleeping.
     
    A cry from the far bedroom, her youngest littermate, letting out a yelp from a
    dream, distracted her mother. Then Ali heard the quiet reassuring tones that had often
    lulled her back to sleep as her mother went to soothe little Joseph. Taking advantage of
    the distraction, she hurried back up the stairs, slipping into her own room before her
    mother or sire appeared in the hallway.
     
    Morning came too soon. Ali pulled her legs to her chest to avoid being trampled
    when Joseph leapt onto her bed.
     

 
    “Wake up, Ali. You’ve got to see what we’ve got!” He leapt off the bed just as
    quickly, racing out of her bedroom, his small feet managing to sound like a pack of
    werewolves as he raced to the stairs.
     
    She sat up, combing her hair with her fingers while sniffing the air. The usual
    morning smells, soap from showers, coffee brewing, anxious and eager emotions as her
    littermates hurried to start their days, slowly drifted into her room.
     
    Would Stone be waking up alone? Did he have some bitch from his pack sleeping
    next to him as he stirred? Or was she already out of bed, hurrying to leave or possibly
    making him breakfast?
     
    She gritted her teeth, the thought of him touching another bitch the way he had her
    making her bones harden throughout her body. Somehow she needed to get him out of
    her head.
     
    No matter how cold she made the shower, the fever inside her didn’t subside. She
    ached to feel Stone touching her again, grabbing her and making her do what he
    wanted. It ate her alive that no matter what she did, it made her think of him. Running
    the soap over her body, feeling the water pelt her breasts, ignited the ache in her that
    wouldn’t die.
     
    Thoughts of him standing in the shower with her, his hard body crushed against
    her backside while he pulled her hair, forced her hair back and enjoyed the view of her
    breasts while sudsy water rushed over them. Her pussy creamed with fresh desire as
    she arched into the water and rinsed her body.
     
    “It’s about time you joined the living.” Audry Bastien walked through the back
    door into the kitchen and took Ali’s hand. “Come outside and see what we have.”
     
    Ali yearned for coffee, but allowed her mother to lead her out to the backyard. The
    morning chill still hung in the air and dew clung to her shoes, seeping through to
    dampen her feet. She let go of her mother’s hand and wrapped her arms around her
    waist.
     

 
    “Dad, what have you done?” She couldn’t help smiling as her father puffed out his
    chest and winked at her.
     
    “I bought your mother a house on wheels, my dear. What do you think?” Her
    father’s pride filled the air around them.
     
    Ali stared at the trailer that had been backed into the driveway attached to his
    truck. Long, with several windows, and a door that was already open. Her sisters
    appeared in the doorway talking at the same time.
     
    “Where are we going?”
     
    “When are we leaving?”
     
    Both Janie Lynn and Jolene spoke at the same time.
     
    Another car pulled into the driveway, popping gravel grabbing Ali’s attention. Two
    Cariboo lunewulf hopped out of the pale blue pickup truck. Ali’s heart swelled to her
    throat making it hard to catch her breath. It was the truck Stone had driven. His twin,
    Gabe, strolled into the yard
