town visiting relatives and as far as Gabriela knew, no one

His arms tightened around her. “She’s always adored
you and has told me more than once what a dumbass I was
for letting you go.”
“Your mom did
not
say that word.” Phoebe Wright might
be a wolf, but she was fairly proper.
He chuckled against the top of her head, his breath
tickling her hair. “It was implied. And before you ask,
because I can see the wheels in your head turning, Ethan
feels bad about what he did, especial y since you almost…”
His voice became raspy as he trailed off.
She tightened her fingers into his waist. “I’m alive and I’m
here and nothing is going to happen to me. Unless your
pack decides they don’t want a jaguar for an Alpha’s mate.”
The words were said semi-jokingly.
His hand flexed on her hip as he rol ed to his back and
pul ed her with him so that she had to straddle him. Looking

Owen reached up, cupping her face and lightly stroking
her cheek with the pad of his thumb. “After what you did, my
pack
adores
you. I’ve already been getting cal s from wel -
meaning aunts wanting to know when we’l be having cubs
of our own.”
The thought of having a family with Owen made Gabriela
smile as warmth spread through her chest, so she kissed
him again. She’d been traveling the globe for so long,
running away from the one man she could never forget.
Now that she was in his arms again, she knew there was no
place she’d rather be.
