Kidnapped By the Beast by Ruby Knoxx

I am the one shifter in the world whose mate got away.
I remember the feel of my tongue on her back, tracing her tattoo of the city sky line.
New York. The city where I found and lost love.
The city that I ran away from as far as I could.
And now I’m back.
I once vowed to her that I’d do anything in my power to protect her.
And I’m here to keep my word.
It’s been years since my hands were on her hips, but I’ve never forgotten.
She’s just as beautifully curvy under those pants as when she was with me.
I’ll be a professional, and I’ll keep her safe or die trying.
I’ll level up my game for her even when I can hardly think straight around her.
I don’t know what she wants. But I know what I want.
I know I’m crossing lines, fueled by years of pent-up longing.
But it’s been so long.
And I can’t stop.
