Free Greyson - Part 4: An Alpha Billionaire Shifter Romance (The Silver Moon Pack) by Cali MacKay

home, they had each other and everyone was safe.
    That was all that mattered.
    ***
    Over the course of the next week or two, Juno regained her health completely, and Cullen was well on his way. But best of all, Juno was finally able to leave all her fears behind, and live a normal life. Well…as normal as things would ever be for a shifter.
    They’d moved back into his parents’ home while they designed a new cabin that would accommodate what Greyson hoped would be their growing family, and everything else had fallen into place. Sawyer and the bears no longer wished Juno any harm, and even Thayer was happy now that she’d agreed to be an honorary member of his pack as their Laighir . There was just one more thing he needed her to tackle—shifting.
    It wasn’t something she could keep just ignoring or avoid doing, especially as the energy continued to build. It’d eventually overwhelm her, though he knew that after things went wrong the first time she shifted, she was in no hurry to do it again. Yet it had to be done, especially as they neared another full moon. “You need to shift, Juno. You can’t keep putting it off—and I’ll be right here with you. We don’t even need to do this outside.”
    “This is a bad idea.” She bit her bottom lip and started to pace, though he stepped in her path and ran his hands down her arms, trying to soothe her. “Don’t you remember what happened the last time? I wasn’t even aware of what was happening, and I nearly killed you.”
    “We’re going to try to go about this a little differently this time around. And who knows…maybe your body’s adjusted since you last shifted. You might not have any difficulties at all now.” And maybe if she was more relaxed before she attempted to shift, she might be able to stay grounded and retain her consciousness. “Come on, love. No time like the present.”
    Before she could protest, he scooped her up into his arms and carried her to their bedroom, as she gave him a knowing smile. “Why do I feel like you have more in mind than just shifting?”
    “Who? Me?” He couldn’t help but laugh and steal a kiss, when it felt like they had a lifetime of happiness ahead of them. “You know me so well, June bug.”
    Greyson set her down against the pile of pillows and stripped himself naked, nestling by her side as he slowly undressed her and covered her soft skin in kisses. It was a struggle to keep his need for her reined in, but he needed her to relax before she attempted to shift.
    Pulling her into his arms, he spooned her from behind and held her to him, doing his best to ignore the luscious curves of her body. “I want you to try to relax your muscles and slow your breathing.”
    Juno gave him a teasing smile over her shoulder. “That’d be a whole lot easier to do if your hard cock wasn’t nestled between my ass cheeks.”
    “Sweetness, there’s nothing I can do about that when I’ve got your body pressed against mine. And you have my word, I’ll take good care of you once we’re done.” He caught her mouth in one more kiss and then forced himself to focus on the task at hand, knowing just how easy it’d be to let her distract him. “Just relax…let your body sink against mine…try to slow your breathing, your heart rate… There you go… Now, holding onto that peace, just picture yourself shifting into a wolf.”
    “Greyson…” The fear in her voice killed him, but this was something that had to be done.
    “I don’t want you worrying…just focus. It’ll be fine, love.”

Chapter Fifteen
     
    Juno did her best to push her fears aside. And after all she’d been through, this should be a cake walk. Except that she knew Greyson might get injured—or worse—if she lost control of her curse.
    She just needed to stay positive if she had any hope of figuring this out. And Greyson was right—she couldn’t put it off. She hadn’t said anything to him, not wanting to worry him with everything else that had been
