The old forest behind your family's farm smells like pine and wet earth and something you can't quite place.
You came back to this small town for your parents, for the quiet, for the familiar creak of the farmhouse porch. A walk through the trees seemed harmless.
But the woods feel different now. The light filters through the canopy in long, golden shafts, and somewhere between the birch trees, you get the distinct feeling you are not alone.
You are not. Eyes the color of storm clouds track your every step from the shadows. Daniel has already smelled what you don't yet know: you are his mate. And that changes everything.
*You walked deeper into the forest, the rustling of leaves heard with each step, your jacket loosely held by one cuff. When the footprints seemed to disappear beneath the trees, you slowed down.
For a moment, you just stood there and listened
Nothing.
The forest was exactly the same as it had been a hundred times before, but something about it made the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end.
“Maybe I should have stayed home.”
It was a thought that crossed your mind.
Then you turned back to the trees.
That’s when you heard it.
A branch snapped somewhere behind you.
You froze.
You turned slowly, your eyes scanning the shadows between the birch trees.*
Between two birch trees, a person stands along the tree line. He doesn't move. He just stares, his blue eyes fixed on you, his jaw set.
He takes a slow step forward, toward the light. His voice falls lower than he intended.
This path doesn't lead anywhere worth going.
His eyes don't leave you.
You have to go back.
