Chapter 1

              Alyse ran through the woods, her heart pounding in her chest. She was in her cat form and had decided to get some fresh air away from the city in which she lived, but she made the mistake of forgetting about how other animals would react to her. Now she was being chased by a very large wolf whose area she had accidentally invaded.

              She ran to the nearest tree and dug her claws into the bark, climbing to the first branch. The wolf stayed at the bottom of the tree, growling at her and pacing back and forth. Every few minutes he would try to reach her by jumping, but to no avail. Alyse wondered how long it would take the wolf to give up. She hadn't planned on being gone long and knew that she would need to eat soon. Not only did shape shifting cause her to need to eat more calories, but she also had other reasons to eat more these days.

              The wolf settled at the bottom of the tree, laying down on the snow-covered ground. Alyse sighed inwardly. It didn't look like the wolf would be leaving any time soon, so she began to look for another way down and hoped she could sneak away. While the wolf laid his head on his paws, she slowly began to climb down the trunk of the tree as quietly as possible.

              Once she was down, she slowly padded away, but something must have alerted the wolf that she was down because he immediately began to run after her once more. She screeched in her cat voice and ran as fast as her legs would carry her. Just as the wolf began to close in on her, another wolf came running at her from the side.

              Terrified that this wolf was also after her, she immediately changed her direction. However, the second wolf ran his head right into the side of the first wolf, sending him flying away. When he landed in the snow, the wolf yelped and stood on his paws, giving the second wolf what could only be a glare. Then he turned and ran away from them both.

              Turning to the second wolf, Alyse realized he was also a shape shifter as soon as she looked into his eyes. They both immediately transformed into their human selves. The handsome man stood before her with brown hair and green eyes. His body was muscular and he wore a black tank top and blue jeans. His feet were bare in the snow, but that wouldn't bother him.

              "Thanks for your help," she told him, brushing her long black hair away from her face. Her eyes roamed over his body and she felt an immediate attraction, but she pushed those thoughts away.

              Shrugging, Brandon told the woman, "It was no big deal. I would have done the same for any other shifter in trouble."

              "Are you from the city?" she asked.

              Brandon nodded. "Yeah. I just love being out here away from all the noise. I'm Brandon by the way." He held out his hand and she graciously accepted.

              "I'm Alyse," she said. "I guess I'd better get going. I'm going to need to eat soon."

              Once more he nodded. "I was just on my way back. Care to join me?"

              "Sure," Alyse said and she changed back into her cat form. Brandon found her to be stunningly beautiful. Her brown eyes matched her brown skin. Her curvaceous body was emphasized at all the right points in her gray sweater and dark blue skinny jeans. Her booty was large and he wanted to run his hands across it.

              As they ran, he couldn't help but wonder if she would be interested in mating. He knew he certainly was, but he didn't know how to approach the topic without sounding like a creep.

              It didn't take them very long to reach the city. When they were in the outskirts, Alyse stopped and changed back into her  human form. Brandon followed her lead and changed as well. She began to walk away and he jogged to catch up to her. "Where in the city do you live?" he asked.

              "Briar Hill. You?" she replied.

              He chuckled. "I'm your neighbor. I live in Oak Hill."

              She nodded and continued walking. Neither one of them were far from where they lived. They continued in silence for a few minutes before he tried again. "Listen, would you like to hang out sometime?"

              Stopping short, Alyse turned to him. "What kind of hanging out?" she asked.

              Brandon shrugged. "I don't know. We could go to dinner and then catch a movie. See if it leads to anything."

              Alyse shook her head and started walking again. "No, I'm pretty sure you don't want to get involved with me."

              "And why is that?" he asked, keeping up with her pace. She was a fast walker.

              "I have some stuff going on in my life right now that you don't need to become involved in," she replied.

              They had reached the point where he needed to turn to head to his house and she would need to go straight. The streets they were walking on were lined with trees and a shadow fell over her face from a branch that hung in the way of a street lamp. "Try me," he said. The attraction he felt toward her was incredible and he couldn't imagine anything getting in the way.

              Alyse looked into his eyes for a moment, one eyebrow raised. Finally she shrugged and said, "I'm pregnant."

              Brandon stopped short. If she was pregnant, then that likely meant she was in a relationship. "What about the father?"

              She shook her head. "He's out of the picture."

              He wasn't sure what to say. He was still attracted to her and wanted to try. "Can I have your number?"

              Alyse looked shocked. "You still want it?"

              He nodded. "Yes. And I will give you a call tomorrow."

              She hesitated for only a moment before pulling a pen from her pocket and writing her number down on the back of his hand. Brandon smiled and held onto her hand for a moment, placing a light kiss on the back. "Talk to you tomorrow," he said and he walked away.

              As she started walking once more, Alyse wasn't certain what had just happened. The man was definitely attractive, but she had been certain that her pregnancy would send him running. Instead, he seemed not to care and had promised to call her the next day. She placed a hand on her stomach as butterflies fluttered throughout it. Or perhaps that was the baby moving. A smile spread across her face and she found that she was actually looking forward to the next day.

              It didn't take her long to reach her house and when she did she found that her brother, Ben, was pacing the floor, waiting for her. "Where have you been?" he demanded, the second she walked through the door.

              Alyse sighed, looking up at him. He stood a full foot taller than she and his muscular form usually meant that people found him intimidating. Alyse didn't. She knew that while he would protect her at any cost, he was also a giant teddy bear. He was caring and sweet to those he loved and was the type of man to help an old lady carry her groceries into her house. "I just went for a run," she said, pushing past him and walking toward the kitchen.

              They lived together in a house that he had purchased nearly two years prior. Before that they had lived in a tiny apartment. Ever since their parents had died when they were teenagers he had taken care of her and even though she was grown now, he still maintained that attitude. "It would have been nice if you would have said something to me about leaving," Ben said, following her. "I was worried sick."

              "Sorry," Alyse said. She pulled some bread and lunch meant from the fridge and began to make a sandwich.

              "How are you feeling?" he asked. Besides the father and now Brandon, Ben was the only person who knew that she was pregnant.

              She shrugged. "Hungry."

              Ben chuckled. "I supposed that explains the beeline to the refrigerator." Alyse nodded, layering the meat she had chosen onto a slice of bread. After adding lettuce, tomato, and mustard, she slapped on the other piece of bread and took a big bite out of the sandwich. "So where did you go?" he asked once she had finished chewing.

              "To the woods outside of the city," Alyse told him and took another bite. While she ate, Ben poured her a glass of milk and set it in front of her.

              He didn't look happy at her response. "You went that far?"

              "Yes. I wanted to be away from the city," she told him.

              Ben shook his head. "I don't want you going that far alone. Especially while you're pregnant. What if something had happened to you?"

              Alyse raised one eyebrow. "I'm sorry but I like being in the woods. If I want to go run through them, I'm going to go whether you like it or not."

              Sighing, Ben looked into her eyes. After a moment he said, "Fine. But will you at least let me know next time? I'd like to go with you so I can watch after you."
