Mate of the Wolf (Paranormal Werewolf Erotic Romance) by Vivian Blackwood Page A

Evan didn’t care about any of that. He was only interested in getting what Alex had promised him.
    Her scent filled his senses the second he entered the club. It was overwhelming, intoxicating. He stopped and scanned the crowd. People were everywhere , and he couldn’t pinpoint the origin of her scent.
    He tried to put the dizzying aroma in the back of his mind, but it was impossible. The power of it made his pulse quicken and his cock stir in his pants. Focus .
    Evan tore his eyes from the crowd and hunted for his target. Alex. He made his way through the crowd and did everything he could to think only of his objective. It was like trying to swim through honey. The scent was relentless, insatiable, all encompassing.
    As he reached Alex , four large men stepped in front of him, bodyguards no doubt. Alex waved them off with a little smirk. “If it isn’t the great Evan Walker… to what do I owe the pleasure?”
    “You don’t owe me pleasure , Alex. You owe me something far more valuable.” Evan tried to concentrate his thoughts, but all he could think about was her scent. Where was she?
    “Who do you think you are , Walker? Do you think you can threaten me in my own club?” The smirk disappeared, and the thugs took notice and put their hands inside their coats.
    “I’m here as a courtesy , Alex, out of respect for our mutual families. You should have the same respect. We had a bargain. I fulfilled my part; it’s well past time that you fulfill yours.” Evan stepped close to Alex. Their eyes only inches apart. “You have three days to return the amulet. Don’t make me visit you again.”
    Evan turned his back to Alex and walked back into the crowd. He was halfway to the exit when he saw her. She was a goddess. Her amber hair flowed around her bare ivory shoulders. The black dress she wore hugged every luscious curve of her body. Her large hazel eyes were wide and focused intently on his.
    Evan’s heart raced with desire; her scent enveloped him and saturated every pore and nerve of his body. He wanted to take her here and now. She was the one destined to be his. She would be his mate.

    Nicole tried to follow him as he made his way across the room. He moved too fast, and she was too small to fight the crowd. He made his way to Alex and then lost him in the sea of people. Was he friends with Alex? She had to get to him; she needed to get to him.
    She battled to cross the floor. Every damn guy in the place tried to dance with her or grabbed her ass, and she was getting nowhere. It was time to get aggressive. Some jerk wearing sunglasses and a fake smile stepped in front of her. Nicole smiled back and shoved him out of the way. The crowd apparently got the message , and a hole opened up in front of her and there he was.
    He was amazing, tall , and well-built. The way he wore his suit shamed every other guy in the place. He was an imposing figure. He walked to her slowly.
    Nicole couldn’t look away from his eyes, dark ocean-green eyes. They penetrated her ; they lusted for her.
    A giant knot rolled around in her stomach, and she was finding it hard to breath. Her legs felt weak, unstable. Her skin grew hot, and her core started burning. She was already slick with perspiration, but she felt her panties moisten with her desire for him. Who is this guy?
    He stepped close to her, tantalizingly close. She could feel his heat washing over her like waves of pure sex.
    “I’m Evan Walker. Let’s dance.”
    It wasn’t a question; it was a command, and one with which she gladly complied. He put his hand on the small of her back and pulled her into him, guiding her body to the slow beat of the music. She slid her hands down his arms and back. She could feel the strength and power of his sculpted form.
    Her body tingled at the touch of him. It felt amazing, like this is where she belonged.
    “What’s your name?” Evan whispered in her ear. His voice was deep and velvety and gave her goose
