Keeping the Peace: When a musk ox shifter makes a detour to help a friend, he runs into Fate’s greatest gift.

Link Rawlins may be a big man, but even though he shares his spirit with a massive musk ox, he’s not a dominant shifter. He’s happy in his role of helping behind the scenes, using his computers to research, hack, and compile information for others.

When Link gets a call from a fellow shifter about some family trouble, he can’t say no. After all, he’s already in the area. Upon arriving at Amelia’s apartment, Link finds her next-door neighbor, Ezra Pendle, already rendering aid. Realizing the human’s his mate, the other half of his soul, Link steps in to back up Ezra’s order for Amelia’s antagonistic father, Gary, to leave, and Link manages to score a date. Unfortunately, Link’s shy, soft-spoken nature leaves him tongue-tied, and the date doesn’t go well. Ezra is active and outgoing, and they just don’t seem to have much in common.

Can Link find a way to convince Ezra they’re meant to be together, or will danger created by Link’s work end with dire consequences for them both?

Evidently, Tucker and Rigel had finally convinced her to move in with them. In Link’s opinion, that was a good thing. Amelia would need the support as she grew further along in her pregnancy, not to mention after having the babe.

It takes a village to raise a child.

Link believed in that old adage, and he was always happy to spend time with his niece and nephew.

“I bet that went over like a lead balloon,” Link muttered as he made another turn. “He there raising a stink, then?”

“Oh, yeah,” Rigel confirmed. A growl entered his voice as he snarled, “He’s threatening to sue for custody of her baby.”

“What the hell?” Link snapped, anger surging through him. “How the hell does he even know she’s pregnant?”

“Don’t know,” Rigel admitted.

“I’ll have to look into that,” Link muttered, scowling as he spotted the apartment complex ahead. “Check for bugs or malware on her phone,” he commented absently, his mind spinning with ideas. “Okay. I’m here.”

“Tell her we’ll be there in thirty,” Rigel told him. “Can you wait with her until we get there?”

“Sure.” Link glanced in his rearview mirror, thinking of his nephew’s cake in the back…and his ice cream. It’ll be fine. “See you shortly.”

After parking in the visitors’ area, Link shoved out of his vehicle. He slammed the door and began jogging toward Amelia’s apartment, using his fob to lock his doors in the process. Link reached the stairs—her apartment was on the third level—and he heard the shouting, his enhanced shifter hearing easily allowing him to make out the words.

“How dare you choose that faggot over your family,” a male roared, and Link assumed it was Gary. “You will cease this despicable behavior. You will move back in with your mother and me so you can relearn proper values,” he continued to demand. “You’ll return to work until you start showing, then stay at home until the baby comes.” The man’s voice hardened further. “Come on. We’ll put in your notice to the building super. I’ll pay the fee to get you out of your lease, then take it out of your paychecks.”

“Let go of me,” a female replied—Amelia, obviously.

Link switched from taking the stairs two at a time to three at a time, knowing he needed to intervene.

To Link’s surprise, he heard a second male voice—a smooth, silky tenor that caused the hairs on his arms to stand up. “Hey, man. Father or not, you can’t drag her anywhere she doesn’t want to go. She’s an adult. Let Amelia go.”

“As if you could stop me,” Gary replied with a sneer in his tone. “Get out of my way.”

Reaching the top, Link turned the corner and continued jogging forward. He spotted a toned Caucasian standing in the doorway to Amelia’s apartment. His feet were braced in his running shoes, and his lean arms flexed where he gripped either side of the door frame.

And that ass in those work-out shorts. Gods, I want to grab those cheeks so bad.

Link almost stumbled a step as the inappropriate thought slammed through his brain. Catching himself in time, he slowed his pace. After all, Link didn’t want to freak out the handsome human who was obviously trying to help Amelia out.
