her. She had gone back into the woods again and again. Even though she never saw any more wolves, she had always had the feeling she was being watched.
    “I’ve been injured since then. I was a dancer and I had a bad fall. My leg…” Olivia trailed off, not wanting to explain her injury anymore, least of all to this stranger.
    “You are a dancer. You can’t change what you were born to do. At least that’s what I’ve been told. If you can walk, you can dance.”
    Was she really going to get into a discussion of her failed career with a wolf? His intensity was creeping her out, so Olivia cast around for something else to say.
    “What’s your name?” she asked. “I’m Olivia.”
    “Blaize,” he grunted. “What do you need for your injury to heal so you can walk again?”
    “This has happened before. I only need to stay off it for a few hours and it will go back to normal.” At least, what passes for normal these days, she added silently.
    They sat in silence for awhile, Blaize staring into the flames and Olivia sneaking the occasional glance his way. Without a word, Blaize stood up abruptly and strode outside.  
    What was that about? Olivia had almost convinced herself she could trust him, at least for now, but he wasn’t acting like a sane person.  
    But then, he wasn’t exactly a person. Maybe this was normal for a wolf. Right now she was having trouble thinking of him as anything other than a man. A strong, handsome, virile man.
    Her rational side was screaming at her to be careful. To keep from falling for his looks. He could be a ruthless killer who liked to toy with his victims, disarming them completely by making them trust him before he went in for the kill.
    But something was drawing her to him in a way that made no sense. And as much as Olivia tried to ignore it, her feelings were overtaking her judgement. She had to fight hard to resist this sexy man.  
    All her life Olivia been able to look at any situation rationally, and even when it was difficult, she could set aside her feelings and make the best choice. It was why she had let Ron go without a fight, even as much as it hurt. It was the right thing to do and she couldn’t make him love her again. If he ever did.
    This was no time to think about the past. Shaking her head, she forced herself to focus on the problem she was having now. Namely, she was injured and stuck in a cave. With a wolf. And she was becoming so attracted to him, she wanted to jump him no matter what the consequences would be.
    Olivia hadn’t been with anyone since Ron, and she hadn’t been in a hurry to get back out and date again. But what she was feeling was far more powerful than just the idea of having some fun with a stranger, and a dangerous one at that. It was as if she was driven towards him by something beyond her control, as though their bodies were magnets and there was nothing she could do to resist him even if she had wanted to.  
    Which she didn’t. Not one bit.
    Her chaotic thoughts were interrupted when Blaize returned. He moved so silently she was almost unaware of his presence until he walked right past where she sat.  
    “What are you doing?” she asked as he dropped handfuls of snow onto the fire to douse it. Without its heat, the cave wasn’t much warmer than being outside.
    “It can’t burn for any longer than it already has. There isn’t enough air circulating through here,” he said, drying his hands on his pants and coming over to her, his coat in his hand.
    “Cover yourself with this.”
    “But then you’ll be cold,” she said, even as he draped it over her legs.
    Blaize shook his head. “I don’t need it. I don’t feel the cold like humans do.”
    Olivia wrapped it tighter around herself, immediately grateful for its warmth.
    “I need rest now, as do you. We will lie together so I can keep you warm.”
    Before she could protest, Blaize was by her side, stretching out on the cold ground. Awkwardly she joined him and he
