Werewolves of Forever 06 - Wild Lust

force Shannon to leave with her, she’d get out of town as fast as she could.
    She ran her finger along the map, noting the area between the rental house and Forever. The vampire Deacon Slater’s house was outside of Shatland, but she knew her sister wasn’t there. Shannon had gone on and on about Daniel and Anderson Holms as well as their ranch, going into a detailed description of the white two-story home with a wraparound porch. But as Charlie soon found out, white two-story houses with wraparound porches were plentiful in the area.
    She could still hear the excitement in Shannon’s voice as she told her sister how she loved helping the men with the horses and cattle. She’d talked the men into building a chicken pen for ten chickens and one rooster that she planned on adding to the livestock.
    The ranch was called Moonbeam Ranch. Charlie thought it sounded like a name a ten-year-old girl would choose, but Shannon went on to explain how many of the ranches in the area had the word “moon” in their names. There was even a local dance bar called The Moonstone Bar.
    Her finger skimmed over the names of the ranches she’d already managed to locate. Moonlight Ranch wasn’t far away, along with Moonstruck Ranch. Another large ranch was called Lonesome Range Ranch.
    She circled the area that she planned on scoping out next. Although she could’ve asked where Moonbeam Ranch was, she didn’t want to risk anyone alerting the Holms cousins or even Shannon that she was in town. She wanted to catch her sister alone, giving her a better chance of convincing her to come back to Boston.
    Charlie blew out a frustrated breath. She’d waited as long as she could without drawing attention to herself, but now she was out of time and needed to get moving. If things kept going the way they had so far, it’d take a lot longer than she’d hoped to find her sister.
    A loud noise jolted her out of her reverie to find a very large and very handsome man standing in front of the pickup, his hand flat on the hood. He stared at her, his lips curved in a smile that hinted at secrets only he knew. His blue eyes sucked the air from her and made it hard to think straight.
    “Are you planning on sitting here all day?”
    She felt the heat from her blush spread through her cheeks and was glad she had sunglasses on. At least he couldn’t see the embarrassment of getting caught in her eyes. She straightened up, grasped the steering wheel, and put on an expressionless mask.
    Those glacial blue eyes dove into her, and she would’ve sworn that he could touch her very soul. Or, if the sudden heat between her legs was any indication, that he could touch her pussy. She clenched the muscles between her legs, refusing to let her libido take charge. Still, how long had it been since she’d had a man, especially a man who looked like him, between her legs, behind her ass, or anywhere else on her body?
    He had to be at least six feet, if not another couple of inches taller. His blond hair was swept back from his rugged face to feather the broad expanse of his shoulders. He could have held the weight of the world on his shoulders and never had another thought about it. His square jaw reminded her of the heroes with strong jaws that always saved the day in the adventure movies she loved. The denim shirt he wore couldn’t hide the muscles in his tree-size arms while his chest stretched the limits of the buttons. The wide shoulders slid down to a lean waist that made her ache to pull the shirt out of his faded jeans and skim her hands over what had to be a human sculpture come to life.
    Her pussy may have awakened her sexual awareness, but her whole body was in on the game now. She hummed with a yearning that was almost overwhelming. What would happen if she let herself go and actually touched him?
    “Did you hear me?”
    She blinked, suddenly aware that he required an answer from her.
    “What did you say?”
    He regarded her, the slight smile growing a bit wider. “I asked if you were planning on sitting here all day?”
    She licked her lips then held her breath as she realized what she’d done. Hell, why not just ask him to hop in the back of the pickup and ride your ass?
    “Uh, is there a problem?”
    He appeared amused, as though he’d sensed what she’d been thinking. “Nope. No problem at all. Other than the fact that folks around here know when someone’s watching us.” He tilted his head to one side and narrowed his eyes. “Or
