Free The Alpha's She-Wolf by K.S. Martin Page A

turn into wolves?”  Naomi asked.  “I met my mate and when he wants to
shift and run, I don’t know how.  Is it because I’m part human?”
    “Darling girls, you’ve never
turned?”  Both shook their heads.  “And you want to?”  Both nodded.  He touched
their shoulders and the air shimmered around him silvery and wavering like heat
off the asphalt in the hottest days of summer.  Donald turned into the huge
white wolf again and both girls went with him.  Silver and white wolves stood
beside him.  Naomi yipped and nipped at his ear.  Shauna shook from head to
tail and then huffed out a bark.  The air shimmered again and Donald shifted
them back into their selves.  Connor watched, amused.  “Now you’ve shifted.  Do
you remember what that felt like?  How it felt to change and how it felt to
become wolves?”  Naomi nodded.  “Just remember that feeling and you can turn
anytime you want.  Remember what you feel like right now and you will shift
back.  Call me and I meant what I said about visiting, I have to go, my ticket
is non-refundable.  I wish that you turned up sooner.”  He said wistfully. 
“But next time I am in the states I will stop by, okay?  If you’re ever in
Scotland, ring me.”  Both girls nodded and hugged him fiercely.  It was only a
few minutes, but he’d answered questions that had plagued them their whole
lives.  Things that they could only guess at before were now clear and both
felt better for it.  “Connor, take care of my girls.”  He shook Connor’s hand
again and he was gone.  They watched him trot across the yard and get into a compact
rental then back out of the driveway.
    “Was that the most incredible thing
ever!?”  Naomi nearly jumped up and down in place.  Shauna grinned.  The air
shimmered around her and Shauna shifted, Naomi followed quickly.  The two
nipped and bit at each other.  They romped and knocked an armchair over. 
Naomi’s tail wagged and destroyed a candy dish that Missus B kept Jordan
almonds in when she was alive.  Shauna jumped up and licked Connor’s cheek.  He
laughed then she jumped back down and nipped at Naomi again.  The air shimmered
again and they were girls again.  Connor chuckled watching Shauna, genuine happiness
and adoration in his face.  Naomi put her arm around Shauna’s waist watching
Connor who couldn’t take his heated gaze off Shauna.  Shauna was staring back
at him with lust and anger now. 
    “You can forgive him now Sissy, he
gave you your father back, and you got two sisters and two brothers out of it. 
That trumps anything he said.  I would’ve forgiven him already and you know how
hard headed I am.  And you,” she looked at Connor, “Think before you speak and
apologize for your words and your stupidity.  Now I am going home to the new
prince Michael.  You two work it out.  She’ll be more comfortable here than at
your place.”  Naomi winked at Connor who grinned.  “Shauna, go upstairs with
him and let him claim you before you both burst into flames.”  Naomi hugged
Shauna and said, “Tootles.”  Naomi slammed out of the screen door and skipped
down the steps laughing.
    “So that was your dad.”  Shauna
nodded.  Connor cleared his throat.  “Look Shauna, I’m sorry for what I said
earlier.  It was rude, stupid, and uncalled for.  I…”  Shauna crossed to him
and wrapped her arms around his middle.  She rested her head against his chest
and he let out a breath and relaxed. 
    “Are you hungry?  It’s been a long
day already and I’m starving.  I didn’t finish my breakfast this morning you
know.”  Connor smiled remembering. 
    “Naomi was wrong about me giving
you your father back, I didn’t do that.  I think it was probably Macgregor.  I
wouldn’t put it past the little curmudgeon to have the direct line to the
palace.”  Connor chuckled and followed her to the kitchen.  “But Naomi was
right about you forgiving me.  I think that you
