smile. He licked his lips, then in seconds reversed the process.
    “That makes two of us, right?” he said.
    Her eyes were glued to his naked body, and she made an obvious effort to bring back her concentration. “I didn’t know there were any shifters around here.”
    “As far as I know, there’s just me in this particular area,” he told her, not yet willing to tell her about The Sentinels. “I’m Drew Noland.” He waited and when she still stared at him, said, “It’s customary when someone tells you their name to tell them yours.”
    She swallowed, her pink tongue wetting her lips. “Ann Marie Knight.”
    Drew let the grin slide over his mouth and hoped he wasn’t drooling. “I’m very happy to meet you, Ann Marie Knight. Happier than you can imagine.”

    She stood up, the blanket falling away from her. “You don’t know how glad I am to meet you .”
    He frowned. Was there something going on here he didn’t know about? “And why is that?”
    “I-I need your help.” She swallowed again, eyes wide as saucers. “Especially now that I know you’re a shifter.”
    His eyes swept over her body, noting the firm breasts with plum-coloured nipples, the slightly rounded belly, the thatch of natural blonde curls covering her sex, her slender legs.
    He was also aware that his cock was swollen and erect and pointing almost straight at her.
    He took one step towards her, and when she didn’t back away he took another, and another, until he was so close to her they were touching.
    “What do you have in mind?” He forced himself to focus, but his brain was being pushed aside by his cock.
    “I-I have a problem I really need help with.”
    A problem? He’d listen to what she had to say, but not until his cock was satisfied and his brain could function again. This woman turned him into a seething mass of testosterone, heavy desire surging through every part of his body.
    “I think the biggest problem right now,” he told her in a voice thick with lust, “is the heat between us. Don’t tell me you don’t feel it, too. I want you. Right now.” His hands slid up her arms and tightened just below her shoulders. “If you don’t want what we both know is going to happen, better grab that blanket.”
    What the hell am I doing here?
    But he couldn’t remember the last time a woman had set his blood to boiling so quickly, made his cock so hard and swell so fast it drove the need in him higher than he could remember.
    He moved his hands again, this time to cup her face, and when she didn’t back away he lowered his mouth to hers in a possessive kiss. His tongue stroked the soft flesh, licking before pressing against the closed seam until she opened for him. Her mouth was a hot, wet cavern that set him on fire, streaks of flame shooting straight to his cock and balls.
    Her small hands gripped his hard biceps as if she were clinging onto him for life, while her tongue duelled with his and mimicked its strokes. The first slide of her tongue against his ANIMAL INSTINCTS

    lit up his body like a firecracker, setting all his senses on fire. He probed deeper, as if he’d never get enough of her flavour.
    She tasted earthy, just like she smelled, like a clean spring morning, and he wondered if he’d ever be able to stop kissing her. The taste of her was intoxicating, firing his senses and making his already hard cock swell even more.
    His hands roamed her body, feeling the satiny smooth skin, the curves unexpectedly lush for someone so small and finally reaching up to cup the heaviness of her breasts. God, he wanted to be inside her, but he wanted everything else, too. As her hands shifted and moved down to his buttocks, all of his muscles tightened. Her fingers were like tiny flicks of flame, burning his skin with the heat of desire every place they touched.
    In an agony of frustration, he lifted his head and picked her up in his arms, carrying her down the
