Chapter 183 Reject

• My heart flip flopped in my chest and I swooned as Maximus held me close. Now that I was alone with a part of Shane that told the truth, I had an idea. This was my chance to seek out answers and ask questions I probably would never ask Shane, especially after the way he treated me. I didn’t want to put up with that man but a part of me was curious about why he was so hateful, so cruel, so harsh to me.
• A million questions ran through my head and as I tried to figure out which one I wanted to ask first, the large man nuzzled my neck. He made a happy rumbling sound and it was all too easy to let him in. He made a happy rumbling sound and I wrapped my arms around his broad shoulders. My throat tightened, what was not to like about a wolf that was practically purring? I’ve only been in his presence for two minutes and I already preferred him to his human counterpart.
• “Why did you hurt Donny?” I asked carefully. He stopped with his nose against my neck and I wondered if I’d started with the wrong topic. If he were in his wolf form I’m sure his ears would be on high alert and I couldn’t stop the small smile from pulling at the corners of my lips at the mental image.
