    Chapter 1

    Troy Keekoti hated horses, and they hated him. Perfectly natural, all things considered.
    He wanted to beat the beast into submission, but didn’t. “Nightmare, if you don’t stop fighting me, I’ll sink my claws into you right now.”
    The four-hoofed broomtail seemed to understand his threat and lowered his head. Somehow Gran Bullion’s black stallion had gotten out of his stall and jumped a fence.
    Good thing he was so fond of Gran. Though she wasn’t actually his grandmother, but an amazing friend and family to their tribe. Troy and his twin brother, Rance, were taking care of her property while she was out of the country.
    Her damn equine had enjoyed an evening of harassing Keekoti livestock into a full stampede that ended in a gate being busted and the herd far from the best grazing. He’d chased the beast for a full hour before he’d been able to get a lead rope on him. Now, his muscles ached and his temper smoldered.
    He unlatched the gate, guided the now semi-docile horse through to the other side, then closed it. Rounding the curve of Gran’s private dirt road, Troy tensed.
    Lights were on at the house that was supposed to be empty.
    He stopped, wishing he’d taken the time to backtrack to his truck with Nightmare instead of walking the stallion straight here. Inside the cab, there were two rifles and a pistol that he could really use right now.
    Wondering who might be in Gran’s house, he searched for a clue. Instantly, a familiar scent of a spring shower and honey hit his nostrils. Katrina Bullion’s scent. Kate is here.
    In a flash, his entire body tensed. Her aroma drove his animal lust into overdrive. His cock responded immediately, as always, turning hard, dying to sink down into the wet, swollen depths of her clasping pussy.
    Nightmare pulled at the reins, lifting his front hooves off the ground. The horse must’ve sensed the change in him.
    “Whoa.” Troy pulled hard on the lead rope.
    The stallion shook his head in defiance and fear, but finally did settle down a bit.
    Thankfully, the moon was only three-quarters or Troy might’ve given into his internal urges and run to find her and claim her as his mate.
    No. I gotta get this damn glue bag locked up in a stall, pronto. Fucking Kate is out of the question.
    Rance and he had been inseparable from Kate until that fateful day when they'd been sixteen and she'd almost learned the secret they were forbidden to share.
    He and Rance were wolf shifters.
    There wasn’t a single day or night that Troy didn’t dream about her. No matter. There was a vow to his brother and a secret to keep.
    First, he had to figure out where Kate was on the ranch. The last thing he needed was a face-to-face with her—or he wouldn’t be responsible for his actions. But he couldn’t deny that seeing her, losing control with her, was exactly what he wanted.
    “Hi, Troy. Gran’s not here.”
    Kate’s silky voice added inches of ache to his already hardening cock.
    Damn!
    Troy clenched his jaw. He should’ve realized how close she was. Unlike him, Rance would’ve been alert, paying attention to his surroundings. Stupid mistake. Sure, Nightmare had rattled him, but that was no excuse to be caught off guard.
    “I know. She’s in Peru.” Troy turned to face the girl who’d haunted his dreams for years—only to realize she was now all woman.
    Keeping his jaw from dropping proved impossible with her beauty. As she headed his way, the sweet young woman he’d last seen seven years ago at their high school graduation had morphed into a full-blown sexy temptation.
    “Peru? You’re kidding. Troy, have you considered becoming a comic?”
    Kate had always been able to rib his dark moods away. How he missed that. Missed everything about her.
    “You know your Gran.”
    As Kate emerged from the trees, the breeze tugging at her long blond curls hypnotized him. His blood boiled fiery with each
