The Blue-eyed Wolf In The Woods novel Chapter 26

"Well, lets say you went inside, where it's warm, maybe under more blankets; will it be easier to fight?" I asked.

"Yes." He stated.

"Okay, then we go inside." I replied.

I stood up in my flannel nightgown and looked down at myself.

God, I am so dàmn lame, I need to start preparing to look nicer when I visit my wolf at night.

My wolf, who is now next to me as a HUMAN MAN!!! WHATTTT???

Okay, pull it together Krys. He's just a normal guy who happens to turn into a wolf when it's cold...

NOO... HE'S A GUY WHO TURNS INTO A WOLF WHEN IT'S COLD!!

A REALLY SEXY GUY!!

I just can't.

I managed to pull it together in about 30 seconds, because when I looked back down he was just about to stand up.

I extended my hand for him to grab, and when he put his plam in mine I was surprised by jolting sparks, shocking me all the way down to my toes and back up.

I jumped at the feeling, causing me to let go of his hand and stutter out, "Oh, I was ummm.. shocked..." I said as Travis looked at me.

"Yeah... a shock." He replied coolly.

That confused me, but I just led him around to my side door and walked into the kitchen.

My house was dark, everyone was fast asleep, oblivious to the fact that I had a naked wolf man in the house.

"Would you like a cup of tea?" I ask.

"Sure." He replied.

"Well, what kind? I got earl grey, green, Irish breakfast, lemon ginger, Chai." I looked up from the cubbard to look back at him.

In the dim lighting of my kitchen he looked out of place.

His tall muscular body was wrapped in my old wool blankets. His hair was messy and sticking in all different directions.

He was wild and mysterious. But he was my wolf.

No. What was I thinking, he's not mine. He's a boy, well a man really, who turns into a wolf. But he isn't mine.

"I'll have green, thanks." He finally said in his deep voice.

When the tips of our fingers touched, I felt the same spark that left my body warm electrified.

This time I didn't pull away. I savored the feeling.

"Oh, weird..." I said under my breath as a I shook my head. "Static electricity... Maybe?" I continued to mumble.

Travis kept his and on mine a moment longer as he laughed heavily "Yes. Maybe it's static..." He smiled mischievously, as if he knew a secret one one else knew, as he took a sip of tea.

The warm liquid seemed to making his teeth chatter less, but I could tell he was still cold.

"Follow me." I said.

His brow furrowed as if he was confused, but he walked away from where he was leaning on my kitchen counter and followed me into my laundry room.

I turnd on the bright flourescent light, which was an extreme contrast to my dim kitchen lighting.

I still hadn't turned to look at him as I said, "I can tell you're still cold. Let me find some of my Grandpa's clean clothes, they might be a little tight, but it's better than freezing, right?"

"You don't have to do that." He said.

"Sure I do. Your feezing, and I can do something to help you." I replied as I turned around.

I was not prepared for the sight of his luminecent blue eyes that seemed to be glowing in the stark white light of my laundry room.
