“You’re… touching me.”  “Oh.” She glances back over her shoulder and blushes. “Sorry.” Embarrassed, she drops my hand like it burned her. Nope, don’t like that at all.  “I didn’t say stop.” This time, I thread our fingers together so she can’t slip away from me so easily.

She’s too pretty for a fucked up monster that even his own parents couldn’t love. Too nice. Too trusting.  If I kill off all the other unmated men in town, though…  She wouldn’t have a reason to leave me. Ever.

You’d think Myles would be far more confident since he’s apparently hung like a horse. If I had a dick that size, I’d be a menace.

He can be her light, and I can be her shadow. It doesn’t have to be a competition. Together, we can give her everything she needs.  “I’m going to be the best brother you could ask for,” I promise, wincing as his head hits the doorway. “Starting now.” Then maybe someday I’ll finally have a family that doesn’t look at me like I’m a monster.
