“Nothing,” I said, trying to breathe evenly.

“You sound like something frightened you,” he said. “Anyways, I have something to tell you. You won’t believe it.”

“Okay, what is it?” I asked, rolling my eyes.

“My family finally agreed to host a haunted house event,” he said excitedly. “I want you to come, and you can bring Olivia too.”

“Ooh, that’s exciting,” I said, smiling but also partly relieved it wasn’t my stalker calling. “When do you want us there?”

“How about this Sunday?”

“Oh no, that’s Alana’s baby shower.”

“Monday night then,” he said.

“I have work.”

“Please.”

“Fine, I’ll try,” I said, sighing. “It better be worth it.”

“Oh, it will. This year’s scare event is going to be so fucking awesome. Can’t wait to see you.”

“Alright, bye, Manny.”

“Bye-bye.”

As I hung up, I noticed Ryder staring at me with a hard expression on his face.

“I don’t know how I feel about you going to that,” said Ryder.

“Hey, you can’t control what I can and cannot do,” I said.

“That’s true, but this is for security purposes,” he said. “Anything could happen.”

“Listen, let’s just see what happens over the next few days,” I said, biting my lower lip. Ryder had a point- but I couldn’t live in fear just because a crazy stalker was after me. I still had to support my nephew and be there for him.

LACY

Tonight was going to be a self-care night. Today’s events had rattled me too much. I was tired of it, so I sat in my bubbly bathtub, enjoying the peace. Grabbing my red waterproof vibrator, I slowly rubbed it over my thighs as I leaned back in the tub.

Once again, being around the pack for hours had turned me on a lot, and I needed relief. I’ve never masturbated for two days in a row, and I wondered what was happening to me. I justified it by the stressful day I went through. I leaned back in the tub, enjoying the bubbles that rose to my chin. The air was foggy with the hot bath, and the scent of my body wash mixed with my ginger scent filled the air.

Even though I used the strongest body wash, it wasn’t enough to erase my natural smell. My skin tingled with the vibrating toy between my thighs, and my body grew warmer with arousal. I pressed the toy against my pussy, pressing it’s rubber ear inside my pussy. It didn’t go all the way in, but just enough so I could feel something there. The toy vibrated under the water against my clitoris, and my breathing came out in harsh gasps the closer I got to my orgasm. I thought about all the bodyguards and how close their bodies were to mine in the limo. I thoughtabout Ryder watching me masturbate, and my face heated, but my pussy clenched.

I shivered around the toy as I came thinking about him.

Damn.

I came down slowly from my high, spent and trembling as I lay in the tub, letting my toy drop to the bottom. My pussy clenched from the aftershocks, and I wished I had an alpha’s knot to relieve me. Staying a virgin was much harder now that I was constantly around alphas and deltas. And they were hot as hell on top of that. After Jordan, I never dated anyone but instead focused on my dream of singing. But now…I was starting to re-think my entire life.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of a crash coming from downstairs.

I stilled in the water, listening intently. Maybe an animal knocked over my flower vase, even though I had no pets. A squirrel must have gotten in. But when I heard footsteps shuffling around downstairs, my heart stopped. Heart pounding hard, I slowly stood up from the bathtub, stark naked and trying not to make a noise. I grabbed my towel, wrapping it around my chest. I needed to barricade myself in my room and get to my phone.

Heart-racing, I ran from the bathroom and went into my room. I slammed my bedroom door shut and locked it with pruney fingers. The footsteps started running up the stairs after figuring out where I was.
