CHAPTER ONE

Ever since Millicent Swartz moved to Grand Junction, she hoped to catch a glimpse of shifters’ children. Grand Junction was one of the few sanctuary cities in North America where the eldritch community lived peacefully side-by-side with humans. People said shifter babies were insanely cute, but their parents usually hid them from the public view. Privacy was one of the reasons, but shifter parents were also very protective of their young.

Rumor had it that the shifter children were unable to control their transformation at a young age, so their appearances were usually mixed with their spirit animals—toddlers with tufted, furry ears on their head or babies with a bushy, fluffy tail. So when the first shifter kid Millie saw had both—a pair of striped tiger ears atop on his blond head and a striped tail on his cute bum—she instantly went into cuteness overload mode, cooing down at him.

But the child didn’t seem pleased to see her. The boy, who couldn’t have been older than three, was in the middle of stealing Millie’s steak dinner off the grill. When Millie spotted him, he let out an adorable baby-tiger roar, swiped the steaks and hotdogs and fled.

And boy, that kid was fast!

One second he was pawing on the grill, and the next he was jumping over the railing and hightailing it into the bushes. Millie’s apartment complex was located at the edge of a forest preserve, which provided plenty of places to hide. Without second thought Millie followed the steak thief. She cautiously made her way toward the dense bush. As she got closer, she could hear the growls and grunts that seemed to indicate pleasure. She pushed the branches aside to take a peek.

Oh my God.

Millie was almost choked by the boy’s cuteness. Really. He was super-duper cute—she almost cried. She wanted to sweep him up from the dirt and smother him with love. She came from a large family with younger siblings who she often cared for when their parents were out working. This baby cub reminded her of her rambunctious younger brothers. He was fiercely chomping on the steak, which was huge in his small hands. Paws? Er, no, hands it seemed. He looked over his shoulder at Millie as she peered in at him, and she heard a low growl as he pulled the meat close to his chest in a possessive gesture that was unmistakable in its intent. A small tail flashed behind him in apparent annoyance at being interrupted.

Yep, she wasn’t mistaken. He was definitely a weretiger shifter child based on the stripes in his fur. White tiger. Siberian tiger? Millie had seen some white tigers during a grade school trip to the Brooklyn Zoo. She remembered she was entranced by the sight of them. Tigers were naturally regal animals. Born as true predators. Statuesquely ferocious and fearsome, and yet breathtakingly beautiful at the same time. Their growls and roars could make someone jump out of her skin. The little boy growled at her again, clearly trying out his powers of intimidation.

Damn, he’s just too freaking cute. I wish Mom and Allie could see this.

Her maternal instinct overcame her. She couldn’t help but be amused by him trying so hard to be fierce. She put her hand on her hips and peered down at him. You’re going to have to work on that growl, buddy, she said with a small smile. She didn’t immediately move toward him. She didn’t want to startle him. Or worse, she’d scare him. Millie looked over her shoulders, wondering where his parents were.

As the details about him began to settle, she remembered she heard a man moved in a couple of doors down from her and that he had a small child. She could only assume that this was probably that child. Her first course of action, though, was to get him out of the bushes. She didn’t want to scare the boy by any means, and he didn’t appear to be too friendly at the moment. She was going to have to use a different strategy.

I’ll be right back, sweetie. Don’t go anywhere, okay? The little boy turned away from her then and started chowing down on the meat again. He acted as if he hadn’t eaten in days. It was as if he was completely and totally ravenous.

Millie quickly went back to her apartment and dug around in the refrigerator. She took out the other steak that she had intended to eat the following evening so that she didn’t need to stop at the grocery store again so soon. She reluctantly pulled it out, deciding that she was going to have to bait the little boy to get him to come to her.

She went back out onto the patio and saw with relief that the little boy was still in the bushes. He appeared to have the last bit a hot dog hanging out of his mouth.

You sure are hungry, aren’t you? she said to him softly. She got down on his level so that he wasn’t staring up at her. He looked at her suspiciously until she pulled the new steak out from behind her back. Granted, it was still raw, but she suspected this was not a problem for the biology of a weretiger, the way it would be for humans. They innately went for meat, which was no doubt what this little boy had done. He must have smelled her
