Read To Tame His Mate for Free Online Page B

had was to trust in the kindness of a stranger—who was also her destined mate—and his nut-job brother.
    “Thank you.” Sarah threaded her fingers in his. “I’m glad it was you who found me. I’d hate to be running right now. And I’m especially glad I feel able to trust you.”
    “Well, that makes two of us.” He gestured to the paperwork. “Let’s answer these questions, shall we?”
    “I’ll do it. It’ll give me something to distract myself.” Sarah paused after writing her first name. What should she put as her last? After a moment, she jotted something down and asked for his address.
    The door opened and in came a gorgeous woman in a lab coat, followed by a content-looking Abraham. He stared at the woman as if she were a goddess. Her long auburn hair was secured with a rubber band at the nape of her neck and hung to the middle of her back. Hazel eyes sparkled as she greeted everyone. “Hello, I’m Stephanie, and I’ll be taking care of you today.”
    “I’m Sarah, this is Erik, and Abraham is behind you.”
    She turned to greet him, and the smile fell from her face. Sarah picked up the slight scent of fear and realized Abraham towered over the poor girl.
    “H-hello,” Stephanie managed.
    “Hi,” he rumbled while staring down at her. With his dark features and big build, not to mention the lack of facial expression, he had to be scaring the crap out of the physician’s assistant.
    Erik jumped in. “You must be fairly new here. I haven’t seen you around.”
    “Um, yes. I just moved here about a month ago.” Stephanie seemed to almost shake herself back to the present. “So how did you hurt your leg?”
    “I slipped in some water and landed wrong on my knee.” Sarah rolled up the leg of her pants and hissed as she passed her knee. “It’s not pretty.”
    “You’re not kidding. Can you guys help her up onto the table so that I can get a better look?” Stephanie relieved Sarah of her clipboard so that she could be moved then stepped back.
    Erik gently lifted her up to the table, the paper crinkling as he set her down. Meanwhile, Stephanie glanced over the paperwork briefly before setting it on the counter and coming to Sarah’s side.
    After a brief examination, she announced, “Well, Ms. Wolfe, it looks like your knee might be dislocated.”
    Sarah didn’t miss Abraham’s startled expression at her choice of last name or the pleased one that settled on Erik’s face.
    “I want to get an x-ray, just to be certain there’re no other underlying problems, though, all right?”
    “Sounds good, thank you,” she replied.
    “I’ll have the nurse bring you to x-ray, and the guys can wait here.” Stephanie inched around Abraham, avoiding eye contact, then practically fled the room.
    “Jeez, would it kill you to crack a smile? You scared that poor girl!” Sarah exclaimed.
    “I did not,” he argued. “But she’s really pretty.”
    Sarah giggled. “Easy there, caveman. You can’t club her and drag her back to your cave.”
    “I don’t think I’m that bad. I do think I’ll ask her out to dinner, though.” Abraham looked at the door as if he could see her through it. Poor bastard had it bad.
    “She’ll say no.” Sarah’s flat remark drew a glare from Abraham and a low growl from Erik in her defense. “She’s a professional, and she’s at work. You’ll need to catch her outside of work and be nice. ”
    “I am nice,” he snarled.
    “Yeah, I can see that.” Rolling her eyes, she shook her head. “I can also see I’ll have to help you with this.”
    “Really?” His face brightened to an almost boyish expression. “Do you think she might have dinner with me?”
    “Maybe, we’ll start with a drink…socially. You can be intimidating, buddy. She’ll need a buffer.” She patted his forearm reassuringly.
    “Okay.” He nodded almost absently while looking off in the direction Stephanie had disappeared.
    “You really like her, don’t you?”
    “I don’t know
