Bab 7: Chapter 7: Breaking The Ice

He couldn’t shake off the feel of her lips on his, her soft skin, the taste of her mouth and that d*mned alluring scent. She is quickly becoming his most formidable opponent, worse than Jude.

Cole rubbed his wet face and groaned with exasperation as he thought about reassigning Jude back to his old post. The elders had reported that Owin was not doing well either, training the young cubs.
