Beautiful Moves (Shifting Steel Book 3)(39)

By:Stephanie West


“I can still help out. You know I’ve got my own drill.” Ella stared at him while fluttering her lashes.

“Fuck, woman! You’re making it hard to get out of this bed,” Wolf groaned as he rolled back on the bed. “I don’t know which is hotter, you in those boots and jeans, holding that drill, or the tight black skirt with those fuck-me heels, and the stockings that have the line up the back.”

Ella smiled a happy smile at Wolf’s dilemma. She didn’t mind featuring in any of his tawdry fantasies.

“How long do you think you’ll be gone?” Ella ran her fingers through Wolf’s hair. She wanted to do this again soon, real soon.

“I’d like to say a day, but it could be longer.” He closed his eyes enjoying her touch. “I’ll call you.”

“Good. I’ll worry.” Ella was already worried at the thought Wolf might be in a dangerous situation. “I really hope the little boy is alright when you find him.”

“Me too, Princess.” Wolf leaned over and kissed her. “I should get dressed,” he groused against her lips.

Wolf

Ella was turning into a hell of a kisser. Wolf pulled into the parking lot of the rendezvous point still feeling the energizing tingle from her parting embrace. Not to mention the memory of Ella’s body arching beneath him. It would forever be seared into his mind. It had been real damn hard leaving her.

Damn I’ve got it bad for that woman.

Strangely that didn’t bother him one bit. Wolf smiled as he headed inside. Wolf spotted the shaggy blonde, feline Shifter at the bar, and wandered over.

“Hey MD. Let’s get this show on the road.” Wolf wanted to do this job and return to Ella.

“I missed you too, man,” MD chuckled.

“It’s been less than a month. I was hoping to miss you more.”

“I’m wounded,” MD clutched his chest. He threw money down for his beer then followed Wolf out.

It felt like yesterday he and the Reaper medic returned from their adventure in Mexico. It was also odd how so much could happen in such a short time. There were some things that changed your life forever. Meeting Ella was one of those turning points. Little-Miss-Straight-Laced had turned Wolf’s life upside down.

“So, did Cain send you for any particular reason? Not that I’m disappointed.” Wolf got along with all the Reapers.

“Yes,” MD snarled. “The bastard we’re after likes to beat up on people weaker than him.”

“Son of a bitch.”

Wolf’s inner beast threatened to come out and play at the thought of some innocent child being used as a punching bag. Things were going to get bloody if that boy had even a scratch on him. Wolf’s nails and fangs elongated.

Soon, he promised his inner beast.

The animal he usually repressed was hungering to get some action. His evening with Ella pushed the bounds of his self-control. It took everything he had in him to restrain the beast. When Ella climaxed, she erupted like an A-bomb, throwing off a shockwave that vibrated through him with fierce intensity. Wolf absorbed it with no trouble, now that he knew what to expect. His inner beast reared up, reveling in the immense power, bathing in it. In the aftermath, Wolf felt energized and jittery, ready to either fuck or go to war. That being the case, it was best he was going to war. Ella needed a little break after their encounter.

“Here,” MD tossed Wolf the Bluetooth helmet comm. “I’ll brief you on the way to St. Louis.”

Wolf hooked the comm up, and they took off for the open road.

“Hey, you mind telling me why Iris wanted me to say, welcome to the family?” MD asked as he merged onto highway fifty-five.

“Iris and her gift.” Wolf shook his head in amazement. “I’m seeing someone.”

“Well it must be serious if Iris is yammering about it. Shifter or Outsider?”

“Outsider.”

“You plan on telling her?” MD asked.

“No. I was actually about to, then this job came up.”

“It’s kinda soon, isn’t it?”

“Yeah, but I don’t have to worry about the usual shit we worry about, with Ella.”

Wolf understood the Shifter’s concern. Just this morning Wolf asked himself the same question. But now he knew Ella wouldn’t betray his secret. She’d grown up with the same fear. Except she had to deal with it alone. Wolf ached for her at the thought. At least he had his pack, full of other people like him. Ella had no one. It was no wonder she was so guarded.

Well that’s gonna change.

“I still don’t envy you. I’m hoping to meet a hot little Shifter one day, so I don’t have any of that drama.”
