They told me working at Forever Home animal shelter would be a safe place for me to heal.
But it doesn't feel safe. Not yet. The people who work here are trying to help me, but I can't tell them why I'm scared.
I haven't spoken in years.
Then Shea Lowe comes in. They tell him to stay away from me, but he doesn't listen. He's the type of guy who does what feels right, no matter what anyone else thinks.
And he understands me. The two of us share something that I can't explain.
But he can. This wolf shifter says I'm his fated mate.
He wants to show me what Christmas can really be like. With family and presents and kisses under the mistletoe.
With Shea, I feel safe. To learn, to grow. To live. And to love.
He's given me my voice back.
But when I learn about Shea's past, I might be silenced for good.
