Lone Wolf Pack 06 - A Future for His Werewolf Warrior Read Online Free PDF

tentatively brushed his fingers over the wolf's paw and shoulder, sinking them in the luxurious fur to seek any signs of blood.
    The wolf released a low growl, but it wasn't threatening. In fact, it the animal had been a feline, Ward would have called it a purr.
    There was no injury that Ward could find, but he still wasn't quite pacified. "I should get a vet to look you over," he mused.
    The wolf huffed and nudged Ward's cheek with his snout. It almost seemed like a disgruntled refusal, and Ward berated himself for interpreting the animal's response as something human. He decided to take one thing at a time.
    He couldn't leave the wolf here, and he wasn't sure how to find a vet at this hour in Willow Cove. As such, there was only one solution he could find. "All right, big guy. Let's get you in the car. You're coming with me, and I'm getting you something to eat."

    Mathias had no idea what he was doing. He had spent most of the night running, trying to clear his head, seeking the source of the strange feeling. Toward the early hours of the morning, he'd gotten a better sense of where he needed to go, but then, a weird panic had gripped him, and he'd found himself scrambling blindly through the forest, pursuing that fear, knowing that he needed to be there for... For who?
    Despite the intensity of the emotion, the identity of his quarry still shocked him to the core. It had struck him harder than the car he'd accidentally run in front of, which was ironic, given that Mathias had been looking for its driver the whole time. Its driver, who was a human, and Mathias's true mate.
    The moment Mathias had met the human's eyes, he'd known just how wrong he'd been. His magic sang at finally finding his perfect match, and his wolf howled in triumph. All of his senses—both magical and otherwise—screamed with the rightness.
    Unfortunately, he was still in wolf form, and he couldn't exactly shift in the middle of the street. So far, he couldn't feel anyone nearby, but there was no telling if that was the case or not given that Mathias's senses were so focused on his mate. Besides, such a shift would draw unpleasant attention, since he'd be breaking the Secrecy Accords.
    It was a moot point, since his mate was already panicking at having a wolf in front of him, and changing shapes would make things worse. So Mathias stayed a wolf and did his best to appear as non-threatening as possible.
    It worked, and far better than expected. His mate seemed drawn to him even if he most likely didn't know why, and perhaps he was less afraid of Mathias than other humans would have been in his position. And so, Mathias ended up sitting obediently in the back seat of his mate's car, doing his best impression of being harmless.
    His mate got behind the wheel and turned the car around, heading back into the direction he'd been coming from. "I have to admit I'm new here," he said, "so I might not be completely equipped to feed a wolf, but I'll do my best, okay, big guy?"
    Mathias woofed and managed to nudge his mate's ear with his snout. The human chuckled, waving a hand at him. "Stop. Don't distract me. I'm driving."
    With a disgruntled huff, Mathias set his head on the back of his mate's seat. He waited patiently and closed his eyes, reveling in the scent of his other half and the lively pulsing of his energy.
    It hadn't escaped his notice that his human looked quite a lot like Will. They shared the same chocolate brown hair, the same build, facial structure and full lips. Their eyes was different—Will's were green, while Mathias's mate had the deepest blue orbs, so dark they were almost black. But most importantly, their energy was similar.
    It made so much sense now, why Mathias had fooled himself into thinking Will was his mate. His Sidhe instincts had shoved aside the wolf ones and zeroed in on that energy, desperate to find a connection. It had been so easy with Will, since Mathias cared about the man outside that pull, simply because of who
