cleaned him up like that had been what she was planning all along.
    The fact that he’d been stuck in Idaho for a few weeks was damned clear from the amount of cum he had in him, but she swallowed it all up. Giving his cock a final kiss, Rose stood up, pulling her pants up as she did so. Redmond was flushed and entirely sated. He grabbed her as soon as she stood and kissed her on the mouth again, taking his time to thoroughly thank her for… well, everything.
    “That was amazing. You’re amazing,” he whispered, breaking the kiss as she corrected her bra.
    Grinning mischievously, Rose bit her lower lip. “What happens in Idaho stays in Idaho, right?” she laughed.
    Redmond chuckled, pulling up his pants and picking up her shirt and handing it to her. “Sure.”
    They got dressed in silence and Redmond couldn’t help but admire the fluidity of her movement and the way her skin glowed even in the dim light. They’d fucked through the sunset, as short as it was, and the moon was beginning to light the sky. The forest had gotten dark, but it never felt ominous to Redmond. He took her hand, taking care to squeeze it gently now, and started leading her out of the forest.
    “I think you’re going to have to stay for a few days,” he said, giving Rose a sideways glance.
    “Yeah? You think you’re going to take advantage of the li’l ol’ Philly girl?” she asked, joking.
    “No. Well, maybe. If she’ll let me,” he laughed. “But like you said, there’s no hotel in Shifter Grove and I know for a fact that Slate isn’t flying out until a few days from now. Shifter Grove isn’t exactly a bustling transit destination.”
    “I kind of noticed that,” she said, grinning.
    Damn, walking with that girl felt good. Redmond was a bit of a playboy; he didn’t hide that, but he definitely wasn’t the kind of guy to jump a girl within minutes of meeting her. But with Rose he couldn’t control himself. Just like he couldn’t take his eyes off of her now when he was taking her back to the house and trying to plot ways for her to stay far longer than she should have. He was forgetting all about the fact that he was supposed to be leaving soon too.
    He was so enthralled with Rose and keeping up a light conversation with her that he barely noticed the fact that there was another car at the compound now. It was farther from theirs, its headlights on and the motor running. When he caught the scent, Redmond stopped dead in his tracks, tugging Rose to stop too. They weren’t far from the house and the vehicle was even farther, but something about the situation screamed danger at him.
    “Were you expecting someone?” he asked casually, trying to keep the razor-sharpness out of his voice, though his body was loaded like a spring now.
    “No,” Rose said, frowning. “What’s wrong?”
    “Someone’s watching us from that car. And we’re a hell of a lot farther from any place where someone could randomly get lost,” he said.
    His bear growled ominously within him and Redmond knew that he’d be ready to go at the drop of a hat. It wasn’t that he was worried for his safety or anyone doing anything to his kin. Royce could handle himself, but he was horrified by the thought that something could happen to the gorgeous creature next to him. Never had he felt so immediately protective of someone, and a little voice at the back of his head told him that maybe Tiana hadn’t just been joshing with him before.
    Redmond started toward the house quickly, pulling Rose along as the car started moving. Instead of coming toward them, like Redmond had expected for one crazy moment, it turned around and wheeled out of the yard, throwing gravel behind it. When Redmond scaled the steps with Rose in tow, Royce was already waiting for them.
    “You smelled them?” Royce asked, nodding at Rose.
    “I did,” Redmond said darkly, relaxing the fist his hand had formed into without Royce noticing.
    “What’s wrong?” Rose asked, scowling in
