The Bear Next Door

By Vanessa Devereaux

Welcome to Bay Harbor Springs, one of the first towns in Benningan County to experiment with the idea that their bear shifter population and non-shifter residents should finally be allowed to date, have sex, and possibly mate.
Before legislation passed, all shifters were known as forbidden and any shifter found to have anything but a platonic or business relationship with their non-shifter counterpart, would be forced to wear a radio tracker, be fined, sometimes jailed, and repeat offenders were banished from Benningan County for ten years.
The non-shifter female residents sometimes found this rule the hardest to abide by because everyone knows that a bear shifter is downright hunkalious.
Many women found themselves unable to resist these sexy werebears and many of the bad boys paid the price by handing over huge fines for a short kiss while others spent time behind bars for a quick rendezvous in the backseat of a parked car.
The Non-Shifter Alliance (all male) has decided that each month a limited number of permits will need to be issued before any sexual activity can commence and it’s on a purely a first come first served basis.
As you can imagine a record number were applied for just minutes after the ban was officially abolished and sexual encounters with the Forbidden Shifters began soon after.
These are the stories...

These are the stories…

You’ve been staring out of that window for ten minutes. What’s so fascinating?

I thought Jon was still asleep, or at least he had been when I’d sneaked out of bed, so his voice startled me.

Just looking at the garden and thinking about what to plant this year.

That hadn’t been true and that’s why I kept my back to Jon. Not that I lie that often, but he has the uncanny ability to know when someone’s not telling him the truth. It isn’t too surprising because for the last five years he’s been an Enforcer in the Bay Harbor Springs Police Force. Getting bear shifters to own up to messing around with non-shifters has been his job, and
