Knotting the Hunter Chapter 39 – The Tea
DaxThe forest is screwing with us and I'm the only one bothered by it."We passed that stump already.""We didn't."Noah takes a left at a deer trail that wasn't there thirty seconds ago."She's deciding whether to let you in.""Me? You're here too. And she told you to bring me.""I'm always allowed in. You're new."He ducks under a branch."Try to smell trustworthy."The trees are watching us, the wolf says, hackles up, turning circles inside my chest. Trees should not watch.Agreed.My whole territory, every acre of it, I know by smell.This place smells like nothing. Like a held breath. Like the woods put a hand over their own mouth when we walked in.Then the track simply gives up being coy and there's a clearing, a cottage, smoke, herbs drying under the eaves, and a goat looking at me like it’s considering its plan of attack."Morning," I tell the goat.The goat maintains eye contact and urinates."He likes you," Noah says.The door opens before either of us is close enough to k
Knotting the Hunter Chapter 38 – What It Smells Like
NoahThe gate guard at Northgate Reserve is nine years old.She's got a juice box, a lawn chair, and the whole entrance covered, and when my truck rolls up she holds out one hand like a tiny traffic cop while she looks me over."You're the gym human," she decides. "Dax said to let you in. You smell like a bad Sunday.""You have no idea, kid."She waves me through, already back on the juice box.It’s the first time I’ve been here, and driving into the den my father wants a green light on, all I see are signs of normal lives being lived.I drive past trim lawns and porch lights and a street hockey net somebody only dragged half off the road.I texted Dax from the driveway at home.Coming over if that’s okay?I don’t want to cause problems with his pack, but his reply was a thumbs up and a pin drop, sent immediately, without any hesitation.I love him a little for it, in a way that does not require closer scrutiny.The air smells like charcoal and half the block's in his backyard.I almo
Knotting the Hunter Chapter 37 – Grace
Noah"We don't eat until your father sits," my mother says, which is how every Sunday of my life has started, and I put the fork back down like a good soldier.Tori, across the table, mouths KILL ME. I mouth back SEEN AND NOT HEARD. She flips me off below the tablecloth with real feeling.Dad's on the phone in the hall, running somebody down in that tone that never rises and never needs to.Mom hovers by the roast with the carving knife, not carving, because carving is his job.My collar itches.I picked the highest one I own tonight, buttoned to the throat, because somewhere under it there's a mark shaped like a mouth, and I'm eating pot roast six feet from a man who’d carve me up if he knew who put it there.That's not a figure of speech. That's the actual table I'm sitting at.Dad comes in, drops into the head chair, and the house exhales into its assigned positions."Kowalski," he says, to no one, meaning the phone call."Had a leech cornered outside Barrie and let it talk its way
Knotting the Hunter Chapter 36 – Terms and Conditions
NoahTurns out Dax hears earn the right to sleep in the bed as time for revenge.He flips us before I've finished the sentence, and now I'm the one on my back on my own mattress with two hundred pounds of smug werewolf sitting on my thighs, and he's looking down at me the way I probably looked at the kappa.Like something he's got a plan for."You made me beg," he says."You offered a presentation, I didn’t make you do anything.""You hummed.""You seemed to like that at the time.""Oh, I did. But I’m not letting you be better at this than I am."His head lowers and his mouth stops directly over my right nipple, close enough that his breath lands on the steel, and my whole body feels like it’s being engulfed in some heavenly kind of fire."Let's talk about this.""Let's not.""When did you get it?""Nineteen. Dax. Fuck."The asshole is blowing a concentrated stream of air directly on my nipple and it’s doing things to me."Why?""Lost a bet to Tori. If your mouth isn't going to-"His
Knotting the Hunter Chapter 35 – Housewarming
DaxNoah's front door barely survives us.He's got the key in the lock and my mouth on the back of his neck and the combination isn't working for either task.When the door finally gives we go through it in a tangle, wet boots and lake stink and his hands already under my shirt.HIS DEN, the wolf announces, at full volume, like a trumpet section. He brought us to his DEN. Do you understand what this means?I do. I really do.It’s overwhelming and humbling to be here.Noah Hunter guards his privacy like a state secret.Six weeks I've known where he lives and never seen past the parking lot, and now I'm inside his apartment with his tongue in my mouth, and the wolf is strutting around my ribcage like we've been crowned.Small apartment.Neat to the point of OCD.Smells like him everywhere, wall to wall, undiluted, and it goes to my head faster than the adrenaline did.He shoves me into the wall by the light switch.I let him.Letting him is the new favorite lie I tell myself.The truth
Knotting the Hunter Chapter 34 – Regulation Cucumbers
Noah"For the last time, we're not naming it.""Gerald.""No.""Look at the little guy's setup. The bottle caps. The boot display. He's a Gerald.""He drowned a dog, Dax.""Geralds contain multitudes."It's eleven at night and I'm crouched on a dark beach holding a grocery bag of cucumbers, and the Alpha of Northgate is trying to name the thing we came to kill.This is my life now.I did this to myself, one bad decision at a time, and the worst part is I checked the weather for tonight like it was a date.My phone buzzes.Tori.Sent you the water depth chart. Remember the deal. Confirm the thing exists, then I'm in the field. No take-backs.The deal.Right.The deal where I promised my little sister a field role in a voice that sounded exactly like a man planning to never deliver it.She'll figure that out eventually, and when she does, the kappa will look like the easy part of my week.Filed as a later problem."Incoming," Dax murmurs, and the back of my neck prickles.The lake exhal
Knotting the Hunter Chapter 10 – Terms
NoahTonight I'm doing something no Hunter has done in the history of ever.I'm standing in the open at the Northgate fence, unarmed, waiting for a werewolf to show up.Dad would shoot me himself. Two in the chest, one in the headstone. HERE LIES NOAH. HE WAS ASKING FOR IT.Leaving it behind is a d
Knotting the Hunter Chapter 3 – Sign
NoahThree miles from where you should be standing.The asshole could have at least given me a direction.Fortunately, I’ve learned to trust my instincts.Hunters don’t have any inherent magic, but our senses are more developed than those of ordinary humans.So here I am.Three miles out from the N
Knotting the Hunter Chapter 2 – Heel
DaxThe wolf wants to turn around.He's wanted to turn around since I cleared the fence, and he isn't being quiet about it, because quiet isn't a thing he owns.He just keeps shoving the same word into the back of my skull like a toddler with a doorbell.Ours.Ours, ours, ours."He's a hunter," I t
Knotting the Hunter Chapter 1 – Sight Picture
NoahThree weeks I've been hunting this wolf, and tonight, finally, he does me the courtesy of holding still long enough to kill.Big of him.He's at the tree line where Northgate's fence gives up and the real woods start, and he's shirtless.Obviously. He almost always is.Cold's got nothing to sa
