"Cantrell sent me a short video of you," Jake said to To it was the pay-for-view video of her and Toain

Jake was as rugged looking as Tom, but his eyes and hair were darker brown He was tall and co, equally in control She wondered if their brother Darien appearedtheain, his expression greary, like he was looking out for his brother’s best interests A warning Don’t mess with the Silver pack unless you want to face down sory wolves

Jake didn’t have to worry about her intentions Joining a gray wolf pack here or anywhere was out of the question because of what she was She had to ad to see a pack run their on and ski resort, instead of hiding a to be just like them She also liked how protective Jake was of his brother

Long ago, she’d learned that she just didn’t fit in anywhere Men--human or otherwise--were a definite hazard to her health Case in point: whoever had pushed her down the black-dia a few pictures of the mountains? Of a skier in action?

What if the skier hadn’t wanted her to capture him on camera in action or any other way? She frowned at that She realized that even if her camera was broken, she did have the card with the pictures of the uy’s ski buddy

She had a flash of recall She had taken a backward shot to capture the interesting vista from the lift, and she was certain the man on the chairlift behind her would be in the picture Maybe blurred She couldn’t reot pictures of them," she said

Tom asked, "Of whom?"

"Of the man who pushed ht have been with hilanced at her carapher" As if he suddenly recalled what she was doing up there

She felt like laughing Now it didn’t raphy, she had an in with Jake "I write for a newspaper" She took decent pictures, but she didn’t want hirapher

Tom frowned "We’ll check out the pictures after Doc Weber runs some tests on you"

She hoped the pictures would reveal soet hold of North and ements to meet him somewhere else at a later time She wouldn’t be able to return to the ski slopes this afternoon

Jake had to be kidding about taking care of Elizabeth Jake had a mate, whom he adored, so Tom knew his brother wasn’t interested in the she-wolf It seeive Tom a hard time Or maybe Jake orried that To she-wolf He wondered what video Jake was talking about, particularly since his brother couldn’t hide the hint of a smile that surfaced when he mentioned it

Now Jake appeared every bit as interested in her ca else o with her," Peter said "Toet a look at those pictures if this was foul play instead of an accident And Cantrell’s video, if anything iree about the pictures, Peter" To about Cantrell’s video "I’ll take care of your ski rentals, Elizabeth After I’ll get your stuff from your locker, I’ll et up the mountain," Jake said and slapped Tom on the back "Keep me posted on the little lady"
