Chapter 12: What Scares You

Rick's POV 

It was happening again. One minute I was arguing with Alexis, and the next I was losing myself in her perfection. Her vanilla cake scent was intoxicating, her lips tasted like berries. I lost control. I kissed her and heard myself moaning in ecstasy. I wanted her, needed her. 

I felt my wolf rise within me to meet her. He liked her too. 

"Are you sure you need to go out there?" I whispered, pulling off my shirt. "I vote to send her away. Tell her you're busy." 

I just couldn't get close enough to her. I needed the feel of her skin against mine. I kissed her neck and pulled her closer to me, feeling her body respond to my touch. It was electric. 

"I don't like her either," Alexis replied, her voice husky with desire. "But I need to kill that thing in the mirror. It's evil." 

Alexis ran her tongue down my chest and I shivered in delight. By the Goddess, this woman was killing me. And reminding me that I was alive.
