And yet everything had.
As he looked down on the beating waves breaking against the cliff, at the foam they left behind, even at the way the water glistened on the rocks, Tobias knew the truth of it all. It had crept up on him, moment by moment, nudge by nudge, over the past week, until the awareness was almost a part of him now.
The waking immediately.
The slight changes to his body.
The feeling of ever-increasing restlessness.
The constant excess energy that he could never seem to expend.
He had changed…he was faster, stronger, quicker…it was time to admit that. Time to stop denying the truth. He swallowed unsteadily, his neck tingling, and looked down at his body, from his sneakers to his fingers. Was it his imagination or did his muscles look more defined? Was his skin a little clearer? Was his color a little healthier?
He lifted his hands in front of his face and clenched the fists. They felt…odd…like they could pick up a rock and turn it into no more than dust. Like there was so much strength he wasn’t even sure what to do with it.
He dropped his hands and looked down, only it wasn’t at the waves this time, it was at something else entirely…and though he couldn’t see it, though it was hidden away, something in his heart paused, because Tobias could feel it. Down there was the Beast...and somehow because of him, because of what had happened between them, Tobias was beginning to change.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
April Andrews loves a good romance, and she likes that romance super hot. To April that means men, lots and lots of men...
In her spare time April likes to take long, soothing walks, play with her kitten, and try to outwit herself at chess. That's a losing battle, because April always knows what the next move is going to be...that's not the case with her books. April's characters take her on the most wonderful journeys, and she loves the fact that she can take you along too.
