Jon, who sees love
not as a burden,
but as a gift.
Chapter 1
It was half past dawn when the phone rang. It shattered the first dream of the night into a
thousand pieces so that I couldn't even remember what the dream had been about. I woke
gasping and confused, asleep just long enough to feel worse but not rested.
Nathaniel groaned beside me, mumbling, "What time is it?"
Micah's voice came from the other side of the bed, his voice low and growling, thick with
sleep. "Early."
I tried to sit up, sandwiched between the two of them where I always slept, but I was
trapped. Trapped in the sheets, one arm tangled in Nathaniel's hair. He usually braided it for
bed, but last night we'd all gotten in late, even by our standards, and we'd just fallen into bed
as soon as we could manage it.
"I'm trapped," I said, trying to extract my hand from his hair without hurting him or tangling
worse. His hair was thick and fell to his ankles; there was lots of it to tangle.
"Let the machine pick up," Micah said. He'd raised up on his elbows enough to see the
clock. "We've had less than an hour of sleep." His hair was a mass of tousled curls around
his face and shoulders. His face was dim in the darkness of the blackout curtains.
I finally got my hand free of Nathaniel's warm, vanilla-scented hair. I lay on my side, propped
on my elbow, waiting for the machine to kick in and let us know whether it was the police for
me or the Furry Coalition hotline for Micah. Nathaniel, as a stripper, didn't get emergency
calls much. Just as well; I wasn't sure I wanted to know what a stripper emergency call
would be. The only ideas I could come up with were either silly or nefarious. Ten rings, and
the machine finally kicked on. Micah spoke over the sound of his own voice on the
machine's message. "Who set the machine on the second phone line to ten rings?"
"Me," Nathaniel said. "It seemed like a better idea when I did it."
We'd put in the second phone line because Micah was the main help for a hotline that new
wereanimals could call and get advice or a rescue. You know, I'm at a bar and I'm about to
lose control, come get me before I turn furry in public . It wasn't technically illegal to be a
wereanimal, but new ones sometimes lost control and ate someone before they came to
their senses. They'd probably be shot to death by the local police before they could be
charged with murder. If the police had silver bullets. If not… it could get very, very bad.
Micah understood the problems of the furred, because he was the local Nimir-Raj, their
leopard king.
