them right. Zora remembered likening this to Deliverance. Maybe she wasn’t that far off. Or maybe it was much worse. Either way, she wasn’t going to squeal like a pig for anyone.

She backed away from the three men, putting as much distance between them and herself as possible. “Whoa. Hold up. I don’t know what you guys think I’m here for, but it’s not to be your personal sex slave.” She understood these men were huge and could overpower her with little effort, but if that was their plan, she didn’t intend to make it easy for them regardless of the inexplicable pull she felt toward all of them.

Logan slanted his lips in a knowing grin. “I think you already know. That bear you saw was me.”

“Logan!” Gavin scolded.

“Stop trying to coddle her, Gavin. What makes you think she’d take it any differently if you eased her into it? Besides, you can see it on her face. She knows what we are. I bet she’s sensed we were different from the moment she opened those big brown eyes. Didn’t you, sweetheart?” Logan’s tone turned gentle as his hungry gaze fell on her once more.

Zora took another step backward, shaking her head in denial. “No. It’s not possible. You can’t be.”

“Should I prove it to you?” For a brief moment his face contorted just enough for her to see the animal he was capable of becoming. Zora had to bite her tongue in order to keep from screaming.

“Don’t!”

Logan shook his head and his face once again held the classically handsome bone structure of an Adonis.

“Logan, that’s enough!” Gavin strode over to his cousin, his eyebrows knitted together and nostrils flaring, stopping short when he was nearly nose to nose with the other giant.

Logan didn’t back down. “I did it your way. You don’t get to call the shots here. Especially when it comes to her.” He jerked his thumb in Zora’s direction.

She’d had enough. “Stop!” she screamed. “Both of you just shut up. Logan, go inside and put some damn clothes on.

Gavin or Heath, one of you better start explaining right now.”

Gavin and Logan backed away from each other, but not fast enough for Zora’s taste.

“Now!” She clapped her hands together for emphasis.

“Let’s go inside, we’ll talk there.” Gavin walked over and reached out to Zora, but she flinched away.

“No. I don’t want to go back inside. I want you guys to tell me what’s going on. Right here. Tell me how I’ve been out for five days and didn’t know it. Tell me how I was in major car accident but don’t feel any worse for wear. Tell me how the hell Logan turned into a bear. And… ” She broke off not wanting to say the last statement aloud.

“You were going to say, why do you feel the way you do about us?” Heath spoke as he moved toward her. He didn’t stop until he was mere inches from her. She could feel the heat emitting from his body, making her quiver in reaction. A gasp tumbled past her lips before she could catch it. And her nipples tightened as a tingling sensation began to spread through her entire body.

She shook her head to deny him, but words wouldn’t come as her tongue remained cleaved to the roof of her mouth.

“Liar,” he said gently. “Even now you’re body is responding to me, responding to all of us.”

Chapter Five

Zora wasn’t interested in going back into the cabin with Heath and Gavin until she got some answers. However, after some cajoling on their part she gave in, feeling mentally and physically exhausted. When she was guided inside, she was both relieved and disappointed to discover Logan nowhere in sight. She assumed he was upstairs taking a shower.

Whatever the reason, it was probably best he wasn’t around. It was bad enough dealing with her unexplained attraction to Heath and Gavin, she didn’t trust herself to be around all three of them at once. There was no telling how she’d react.

“Have a seat.” Heath directed her to the couch.

With a heavy sigh, Zora plopped down. “Okay, I’m here.

So spill it. And I’d rather you two didn’t beat around the bush. My patience is about as thin as it can get.”

“Of course, but first,” Gavin began, but Zora held up
