Kieran’s POV
As I walked up to the condo, I noticed a guy standing across the street. He looked young—maybe a professor, maybe a grad student. Hard to tell these days.
He wasn’t just standing there, though. He was staring. Straight ahead. Like he was watching something—or someone. I followed his line of sight… and realized he was staring across the street. At me.
I narrowed my eyes.
He didn’t flinch. Just stood there like he had all the time in the world. There was a pulse of energy rolling off him—subtle but strong. He wasn’t a wolf. I knew that instantly. But whatever he was, he was powerful.
I tilted my head up in a casual challenge. He mirrored the gesture.
People are weird as hell these days.
I shrugged it off and rang the doorbell.
Harmony opened it, arms crossed, expression
