sorry,” I said. “For everything. I’m sorry you got hurt.”
“It’s okay,” he said. I took a step closer to him and leaned my head on his shoulder without touching anything else of his. His hand lifted and he put it on the back of my head, his fingers making small circles that were somehow soothing.
“It was a young one,” he said. His deep voice vibrated through his chest and into my body. “Mountain lions usually stay away from humans unless they’re sick or injured, or too young to choose their prey right.”
I shivered.
“Please just take me home,” I said. I didn’t think I could handle much more of this.
We weaved through the trees. He held my good hand, helping me so I wouldn’t fall. I felt faint. We finally cleared the trees, and a moment later a red and white helicopter appeared, the blades roaring in the sky. It came closer and landed on a part where the slope flattened out.
George helped me get into the helicopter where a medic looked me over straight away.
“Aren’t you coming?” I yelled so he could hear me over the noise of the blades. He shook his head.
“I’ll see you for your next lesson,” he said.
“Maybe not just yet,” the medic interrupted, and the helicopter slowly rose into the air.
They took me to a clinic close by and a doctor did a full check-up. I was treated for mild hypothermia and dehydration. An hour later I was in a bed with a drip in my arm.
My friends rushed into the room.
“Oh my gosh Anna. We thought you’d died,” Ash cried out. Kate was crying. Ella squeezed my hand hard enough for my opposite shoulder to ache again.
“I’m okay, guys,” I croaked.
“Listen to us next time, okay?” Kate said. I nodded.
“What did the doctor say?”
“He said I could leave a bit later today if everything was fixed again. Otherwise I might stay overnight, but no more than that.
“I’ll get us movies to watch tonight,” Ella said. “We can stay in and have ice cream.”
“I’ve had enough snow for now,” I said and smiled. The girls forced laughs because they would cry otherwise.
I was back in the hotel room four hours later, tucked in bed. The girls were out on a ski lesson. I’d insisted. I was tired and my shoulder still hurt, and I felt like I could sleep a decade.
A knock at our front door sounded. We’d put up the ‘do not disturb’ sign so they cleaning crew wouldn’t disturb me, but the door clicked open anyway.
“Don’t disturb,” I called out.
“I just wanted to come check on you,” a deep voice sounded from my bedroom door, and when I looked up it was George. He was dressed in new ski clothes and he’d shaven.
“Don’t you have a lesson?” I asked. I was sure he was teaching the girls.
He shook his head. “Someone else took over. Doctor’s orders. I have to take it slow too, apparently. Pity they don’t know werewolves heal up almost immediately.”
“Thank you,” I whispered, and held out my hand. He walked to the bed and took it, sitting down.
“I would come after you every time,” he said.
My phone rang next to me on the nightstand. When I answered it was Kate.
“We want to head out for cocktails later, you think you’re up for it? Probably too soon, hey?”
I looked at George and smiled.
“I don’t think so, Kate. I have a date.”
George smiled and hung up the phone for me.

SHE WOLF MAIL ORDER BRIDE
By Sicily Duval
Sasha was not a happy woman. And an even less happy she-wolf. She sat across from her pack leader, arms crossed angrily across her chest as she stared at him defiantly. As the Beta of her pack, she only had to take orders from her Alpha, and as far as Alpha’s go, Jake was a pretty laid back one. So it was no surprise that Sasha was in utter shock at his words.
“You can’t be serious Jake,” she said resentfully, restraining herself from baring her teeth. If she had been in wolf form, and Jake had been any other
