Wolves of Wrath by Quinn Loftis
Her parents had given her a pretty good foundation to stand on when it came to knowing what was required for a relationship. But they hadn’t prepared her for what to do if she had her mind supernaturally wiped, been thrown into a life that wasn’t real, pursued by a man who wasn’t her soul mate, and then climbed into bed with that man. Where were the instructions on how to deal with those dilemmas? Where were the self-help books, the counseling groups, the pills to help her cope with the pain that came from completely forgetting the man that held the other half of her soul and giving her body to another?
Sally felt him before he opened the door and entered her sanctuary. His hazel eyes met hers and held her gaze with a confidence she envied now more than ever. He stalked toward her with purpose in every step. His movements were calculated, unhurried, and graceful. He was, quite simply, breathtaking.
“It’s late, Sally mine,” Costin’s deep voice rumbled. He held out his hand to her. “I’ve already put Titus down. Come to bed.”
Her gut clenched with guilt knowing she hadn’t been there to say goodnight to their adopted son. She was still so very new to the whole mom thing, and sucking hard core at it.
“He understands more than you realize,” Costin said as though he could hear her thoughts...though he couldn’t because she was shutting him out. “Please, come to bed.”
She stood and walked toward him. Her hands shook so she tucked them behind her back in hopes of hiding the tremors from him. It was also convenient because it kept her from touching him. Sally didn’t deserve to touch him. She had lost the right to put her hands on him when she’d touched another male.
“You look tired, brow—,” his words froze in his throat before he could finish the sentence that would have ended with a nickname she could no longer hear from his lips. “You need rest,” he finally said after several awkward seconds.
“You could have let me know when you were putting Titus down,” she said as they walked side by side, un-touching, looking more like acquaintances than true mates. True mates touched without conscious thought. The need was so great they rarely occupied the same room without touching each other in some way—the way it was supposed to be. “I would have come to tell him goodnight.”
“I tried to tell you,” he said as he tapped his temple. “But it’s Fort Knox up there.”
She didn’t know what to say so she said nothing. They walked in silence to their suite, though she could feel his eyes on her when he periodically glanced over. She didn’t meet his gaze, but simply looked down at the ground, allowing his steps to guide her.
When the door clicked shut behind them, and the locked slipped into place, Sally felt the all too familiar panic beginning to rise.
I hope you enjoyed this sneak peak of Forgotten Silence, releasing December 2017.
Note from Quinn
Thank you so much for taking your time and spending it with the characters I’ve grown to love. I hope you’ve fallen in love with them and their fur balls as much as I have!
