Page 85 of Witch Queens: Tales from Oz

I flew off the desk, searching for my clothing.

Grabbing my dress, I yanked it over my head only to get caught with it around my shoulders.

I was hopping about like a mad woman when Jake took pity on me.

“You are going to hurt yourself,” he grinned as he pulled my arms out of the correct holes.

“Stupid dress,” I muttered, trying to flatten my 'just had sex hair'.

He winked at me before calmly walking to wear his jeans were tossed and pulling them on. I watched as his dick disappeared beneath the buttons.

Shit, that was hot.

His eyes bore into mine, “If you continue to look at me like that, I will fuck you again over this desk. I don’t give a damn who is waiting outside.”

That was hotter.

I whisked around to find my panties and bra, but they had to have vanished into thin air.

Never mind about that, I raced over to the door after making sure Jake had his t-shirt on and wrenched it open.

“Well, well, well,” his gruff voice sounded eerily like Jake’s.

Damn it.

“Eric,” Jake snarled at his brother, “What are you doing here?”

Eric scoffed, “I could ask the same of you, big brother, but I can already smell it.”

In seconds, Jake had Eric pinned against the wall by the throat, “Don’t ever disrespect my mate or me again.”

Eric’s eyes glittered with hatred, “She cannot be your mate, she is not a shifter!”

Jake tightened his grip while Eric clawed at his hands.

“Do you understand?” Jake hissed.

“Yes!” Eric choked out, “No disrespect.”

Jake dropped him to the floor like the pile of worthless trash that he was.

“Why are you here? And why did you allow the blood bond to be broken?”

Eric wheezed as he tried to get air back into his lungs.

There were purple bruises already starting to form around his neck.

“Answer me!” Jake demanded in a threatening tone.

“The lionesses have been restless. They are the ones attacking the village and ravaging the farm animals.”

“Why didn’t you stop them?” Jake growled menacingly in his throat.

Eric sent a look of loathing, “Oh, gee, I hadn’t thought of that. Thanks for your insight, big brother.”

Jake’s face tightened, and he took a step toward Eric, “I swear I will pull you limb from limb.”

“They don’t listen to me!” Eric’s angry voice took on a pouty quality that I did not like. “And I can’t punish them. They are the mothers of my cubs.”
