i saw the werewolf .
in human form , though !
mia buried her face into my chest .
he threatened me and my family .
he said if i dont make a potion to poison the guy hed had me try to heal , then he would kill us .
she looked up at me with tears shimmering in her eyes .
he ... he changed you on purpose .
i wrapped my arms around her , holding her close to me .
sshhh .
dont worry .
i wont let him hurt you or your family .
perhaps changing me will be his mistake .
im more powerful than i was .
ill be able to protect you .
i pressed a kiss to the top of her head , but that wasnt enough .
itd never be enough .
she wasnt my sister .
polite kisses in respectful places werent the only way to show affection for her .
need slammed into me , and i bent to claim her lips .
chapter twelve mia ethan propped me on the countertop , and i wrapped my legs around him , instinct kicking in .
our lips brushed a sensual meeting of mouths .
he slid his tongue over my lower lip , caressing and teasing .
if i hadnt been sitting on the counter , my knees wouldve given out .
i opened my mouth to him , brushing my tongue against his , inviting him in .
without hesitation , he slipped his tongue inside , and the kiss grew more desperate and heated .
i cradled the back of his neck , running my hands over his soft , close-cut hair .
he ran his hands from my waist down to my knees , then he trailed them back up my legs .
arousal moistened my thighs , and i wanted him more than id ever wanted another man .
his nostrils flared , and he pulled me from the counter so i pressed snuggly against his body .
i moaned , unable to stop myself .
ethan bumped me against the wall on the way out of the kitchen .
we stayed there a moment , his mouth still devouring mine .
he kneaded my backside with his large hands .
i wanted to strip his clothes off him , right then and there .
his muscular body beneath my hands was divine .
with him this close , i felt cozy and protected , especially after what happened last night .
maybe he was right .
if ethan was a werewolf now , he posed a greater threat to the guy who attacked us .
i trailed my hands down his front , eager to see what lay beneath his pajama bottoms .
the bulge pressed tight against me told me how happy he was to be here .
id never felt like this with anyone else .
he readjusted our position , pulling me away from the wall again , then he headed toward the living room .
for a moment , i thought hed stop at the couch , but he continued toward the stairs .
my breath lodged in my throat .
this was going to happen .
the buzzing of my cell phone broke me from my bliss .
could that be jessa ?
i couldnt miss the call .
ethan started up the steps , not worrying about the call , but i pushed against his chest .
i need to take that .
cant it wait ?
it might be my friend , jessa .
i havent heard from her , and she said she was going to call .
ive been kind of worried , with all thats going on .
i didnt want to go into her role in the situation , even though he had a right to know .
he set me to my feet gently .
dont take too long .
i need you , mia .
i could tell that from the bulge in his pants .
i wont .
i promise .
when i got to my phone , i nearly dropped it : greg .
mia ?
is everything okay ?
ethan was at my side in the span of a heartbeat .
he picked up my phone and saw the caller id .
a sigh rushed from his lungs , and he handed it to me .
ill be in the shower .
i wanted to cry .
my body burned for ethan .
we had a connection and , while the love potion mightve heightened it , our feelings for each other had been there for years under the surface .
i could tell he cared for me .
im so sorry , ethan .
answer the call .
he brushed his hand over my hair , then he took off upstairs .
greg , hi , i said , trying to sound like my heart wasnt breaking .
id vowed not to break his heart before the holidays .
if only my own wasnt doing the exact thing id hoped to prevent .
im not interrupting anything , am i ?
he sounded his usual condescending and wisecracking self .
when he was like this , i forgot what had drawn us together in the first place .
fear of being forever alone , i guess .
but he had been more kind and considerate at the very beginning .
i had to run for the phone .
it was the truth .
thats all .
whats up ?
i forced myself to sound more chipper than i was .
were still on for your parents christmas eve dinner tomorrow , right ?
maybe afterward we can hang out at my place .
i have something for you .
the way he said it made it obvious what he wanted .
greg and i had never been intimate .
why he thought that would change because it was christmas eve flew over my head .
i scoured my brain for an excuse .
after the dinner , which shouldve been called lunch because of how early it always was , id need to escape home , craft the potion , then take it to jessas shop .
but no , i couldnt do that .
i needed the ingredients .
great , ill pick you up , and well head there together .
no use taking two cars when well just go back to my place .
