As Intentions Shift

New to the area Grayson Carter rolls into a small town looking for a job at the local bar, where he meets Jude Williams: the owner's handsome older brother who seems to hate the air Grayson breathes. Both of them have their secrets, but can they let down their walls enough to let each other in? -- "My turn. I like the way your sister talks about you. You’re like a hero to her, that kind of bond is really incredible." Jude flips his hand, catching Grayson’s fingertips on his palm with his thumb. He rubs his thumb up Grayson’s middle finger contemplatively. "You always smell like hazelnut coffee." His voice is soft. Grayson lowers his voice to almost a whisper. "It’s a pretty common combination, it’s not that special." "It is when you do it." -- As Intentions Shift is created by Emily Smith, an EGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Chapter 18: Amelia

Amelia Williams was the only person in Harsen that Grayson actually understood. Granted, he didn't interact with that many people here, and one of the few he did was able to transform into a wolf…so the bar was pretty low.

Even still, she was the only person Grayson wanted to see right now.

He knocks on her door and a startled Amelia appears.

"Oh hey, Carter. You done being all mysterious?"

"I need you to tell me everything."

"That's pretty vague. I'm not exactly a walking dictionary, here."

"I know."

"Alright?"

"I. Know."

"Okay, d*mn! I get it, you know. Come inside before you cause a scene."

She moves aside and Grayson rushes in.

"So?"

Amelia sighs. "I'm making tea. You want some?"

"Coffee?"

"You don't need coffee. I'm making tea."

She walks to the kitchen and starts preparing the drinks. Grayson sits at her island counter and watches her.

"Do I want to know what happened?"

"...Bear."

"Bear. What the f*ck does that mean?"
