safe. Call me if you need anything.
    It was written in her alpha’s handwriting, but it was signed Justin and she was comforted that she wouldn’t have to do this alone. She’d never had a pet and was nervous as heck that she’d harm it. Carter was ecstatic: he now had Justin’s phone number.
    Since then, Carter and Justin spoke every day. Every time they spoke Justin asked if she wanted to talk to him. She didn’t know what to say, so she always responded with a firm no.
    Her days were full of work, dog walking and laundry, not to mention vacuuming. She took Carter to the flower shop everyday not trusting that he’d be safe without her, which meant the dog came with them. One morning, after a slow start, she decided she’d leave the puppy home. She just couldn’t cope with the destruction such a small puppy could cause in a flower shop. Not knowing what else to do, she shut him in the bathroom where he’d be safe and contained.
     
    Coming home was usually the highlight of her day, but Carter had been on edge all day today, jumping every time someone came through the door. It made her suspect he’d done something naughty and he was waiting to get caught. He denied that he’d done anything wrong, of course, so now it was a matter of waiting to find out what he’d done. It always came out one way or another.
    Walking into a quiet house was eerie. Carter took off for his room immediately and she strode toward the bathroom door where Gunner was whining to get out.
    Before she got to the bathroom, the doorbell rang causing Gunner bark like the hounds of hell had just arrived. Sighing, she pivoted around to get the door. Opening the door she was shocked when she saw Justin standing on her porch in a pair of faded well-worn blue jeans with his hands in the pockets. He looked great, a button up shirt graced his upper body, the top two buttons were open and she wished he’d have left a few more open. His hair was a bit longer than she’d remembered, but it appeared nice and shiny, unlike the dull tone it’d taken when he’d been ill. His eyes peered into hers as he said, “Hi, can I come in?”
    Shaking the naughty thoughts from her head she was glad she’d applied her scent blocking perfume or he’d have known exactly what she was thinking. “Uh, sure, I thought you’d gone back to your pack. Blake said you couldn’t come back here.”
    He gave her a gentle grin, almost like he knew she was on edge. “We worked things out. When my alpha was informed of the situation he almost demanded Blake take me back. Blake wasn’t happy, but he understands.”
    “What situation?”
    Justin’s scent changed immediately to a combination of fear and embarrassment. He didn’t answer her, instead he countered, “Where’s Carter, and Gunner? You’re supposed to keep him with you at all times.”
    “I have been, but he’s like a bull in a china shop. He’s marked his territory all around the store, and the house. At work he eats the flowers and knocks the vases to the floor: he’s broken six so far.” She knew she sounded defensive, but the shock of getting an unasked for puppy came back full force.
    She let him into the house, and immediately went to check on the barking ball of fur.
    “So, you left him here to roam the house? Those dogs are high energy, I hate to say it, but he’s probably broken a few things here too.”
    “Nah, I locked him in the bathroom.” Opening the bathroom door slowly she noticed why the puppy was crying. She couldn’t hold in her gasp. It appeared that the dog had bitten through part of the door and taken chunks out of its frame.
    “Oh, well…why’d you shut him in the bathroom?”
    “I had to leave and I couldn’t let him roam the house. I haven’t doggie-proofed it yet. He could have gotten into something he shouldn’t have.”
    “Don’t you have a four year old son?”
    She looked at him like he’d lost his mind. “Duh, you know I have a four year old boy, he’s the one
