not a werewolf. I didn’t have to listen to the savage beast inside me. And I

was not getting wrapped up with Jaxson Laurent. I plopped down on the

couch, tightly crossed my legs, and let the towel and shadows settle around

me.

With a click, Jaxson unlocked the door and swung it open.

Sam stepped in and cupped her hand to her mouth, covering a wide grin.

“What did I interrupt? It smells like a Brazilian steakhouse in here, and you

are a very rare steak, Savy!”

The scarlet drained from my hair and flooded across my face as my very

soul withered.

Oh. God.

I should have let the sorcerer kill me.

Sam clapped her hands, laughing. “Oh, shit, I am so, so sorry, you two.”

Jaxson closed the door behind her with a wry smile.

My neck burned with embarrassment and rage. Where had her enthusiasm

been when we’d kissed the last time? She’d ripped me a new one.

But I hadn’t been a werewolf then. Just a dirty, expendable LaSalle. Now

I was some sort of half-breed. Did that really make things better?

Sam gave me a wicked grin and waved the spare clothes at me. “Are you

sure you still need these? Should I come back later?”

“Cool it, Sam,” Jaxson growled. “We’re in fucking trouble, and we need

a plan.”

She nodded. “Yeah, I was just excited because you seem to be embracing

the m—”

Jaxson gave Sam a look that practically made the walls of the penthouse

shake. My skin chilled as his power washed over us both, and I was certain

the temperature had dropped twenty degrees.

She shrank back. “Right. Sorry.”

What the hell had that been about?

Clearly, I didn’t understand a fucking thing about these wolves.
