Werewolf Boyfriend: Jasper Part One (special preview)

You step up to the map and run you fingers over it. Just beyond the forest, there was a town called Hearthway Hollow. Having a place to call home, a place you didn’t have to move, you thought it was only a pipe dream. But you never stopped long enough to find out if that was true or not.

After a quick rest, you and Ginger found yourselves in Hearthway Hollow. It was early morning and the only things open were a cafe, a hole in the wall diner, and a tool shop. The place looked like the sort of town you glanced in old TV shows and movies. It looked perfectly serene. 

As you got out of your car, holding Ginger in yours arms, you started to feel a momentus weight on your shoulders. You had no idea what you were doing, or even what you possibly could do. Where should you turn? How did you expect to live here?

“Hey, Dorothy?” A gruff voice calls out to you. “You far from Kansas?”

You turn, glancing back towards the tool shop where the biggest man you had ever seen is standing. His pitch black hair is peppered with gray, and he has the sort of look a mob boss would have. 

“Dorothy?” Your voice cracks.

He points to Ginger. “Yeah. You go Bellina there.”

Ginger fluffs up.

“Her name is Ginger.” You’re not exactly sure how to respond to this guy, or if smarting off will get you in trouble.

He laughs, a sort of smile crossing his face. “You look lost with a chicken, I don’t mean anything by it, kid.” He steps towards you. “Is there anything I can help you with?”

You look him over, having dealt with things as big as him before, you knew you could take him is possible. Only thing giving you pause was how genuine his tone seemed. “I’m new here, and it’s a long story as to why, but I suppose I’m here to stay.”
