“If it will be easier for you to accept the fact I’m not human while giving me your trust so I can protect you, I will be a vampire.” A soft breeze gently grazed the skin on my neck exposed from the ponytail, coming from behind me. I fought the need to smile. “I’ll even be a shifter if it’ll help you process better. Just don’t ask me to purr while you scratch my belly, and I’m not good at hacking out hairballs.”

“Stop snapping at me. I’m a grown ass woman, not a child.” I froze when she poked the shifter in the nose with her forefinger. A deep, threatening growl started in Dominic’s chest. “And stop snarling and growling. I’m not scared of you. Taking care of animals is my life, if you forgot. You’re just a big cat with an assholish attitude. I don’t give a rat’s ass if you look human most of the time.”
