Claimed By the Panda

He wanted a fake boyfriend. I wanted to pet a panda. What could go wrong?

Matching costumes were a Halloween tradition in my friend group, and this year was my year to pick. Little did I know that partying with a group of people in panda costumes would attract someone with unimaginable abilities.
And he wanted me to pretend to be his fiancé? Whatever. Jian was the hottest man I’d ever seen. I’d have pretended to be just about anything for a peek inside his bedroom.
Even so, what I found when I woke up the next morning was… a bit of a shock.

After a Halloween blind date gone wrong led to a little white lie that put me dangerously close to angering my dad’s alpha-predator best friend, I had one find a willing accomplice to turn my lie into a reality. Enter cute, agreeable, and just a little too obsessed with pandas.
Getting him to agree was easy. Cody would do anything to pet a panda, and I just happened to be one (sometimes). Pretending to be engaged was supposed to be simple. After all, I was straight and not at all into Cody.
So why couldn’t I get this adorkable panda-lover out of my head—or my bed?
