Fatal Temptation: Between Two Alphas novel Chapter 9

All the lights go out.

My car is still running and the headlights cast an eerie glow, showing dozens of men and women lined up along the main gate. The pack is watching, waiting. Some are in wolf form, their golden eyes refracting eerily in the night, others are clothed, some naked from shifting back to human. It’s a living wall of wolves and many of them have stepped beyond the gates, to encircle me and Eric completely.

Everyone is silent.

Then the Alpha starts to laugh. Quietly at first and then with increasing enthusiasm. His hand comes back to my chin again, gentler now. “You bluffed.”

I shrug.

“What about all that bluster of alerting authorities…?”

I jerk my head and his hand falls away. It’s too intimate, him touching my face. He still crowds me so there isn’t a reprieve, and, omg, he’s naked–

Mia. Answer me.

How can he do this?

You really don’t know?

He’s in my head again. “Stop it.”

Think hard on what you say or do next.

It’s a warning. Probably the only one I’ll get.

Same thing you do to me… he replies.
