Chapter 99
LEAH
It’s my party and I’m pretty sure people are noticing that I’ve been missing for close to an hour. If I’m lucky, maybe they’ll think I’m engaged in some other part of the house with other packmates. But something tells me, Aaron’s missing presence will be harder to overlook. Enemy and all that.
When they can’t find either one of us…
One plus one plus one is three.
I should really take a shower because the scent of him is on my skin. I lean into his neck for a moment where that incredible smell is concentrated and I li ck his skin.
He starts hardening again and I realize what I’m doing.
I spring away from him. I’m about to start spouting about that being a mistake too. But Aaron arches an eyebrow all but daring me to disobey him.
Fine.
Whatever.
S*x was never our problem.
It was everything else.
Come to think of it…”Aaron, I need a million dollars.”
If my father’s pack is in as bad of shape as I think it is, I’m
going to need money to start investing and probably ten times
that to make enough sizable plays to set them up. If I had
more time…I could generate that revenue organically.
“Actually,” I tell him. “I need twenty million.”
He shrugs back into his shirt. “Okay.”
Just like that? No questions asked.
“Uh, thanks.”
I try to figure out his motives. It’s not a lot of money to him, he
has billions. But still. He has to know that I’m going to use it to
rebuild Pack Roberts. Does he not consider us a threat at all?
Is he humoring me because he plans to take us over anyway?
