Chapter 135
Raven’s POV
His olive eyes sparked with gold. “Luv…you know what that does to me.”
I grinned. “Too bad you can’t do anything about it.”
“Oh, is that so?” Dexter moved in a flash, grabbing me around the waist and taking my mouth. My lips parted, and his tongue stroked in. I couldn’t hold back the moan as his taste teased my tongue.
One of the mechanics hooted while someone else started clapping. Dexter righted me, and I stared at him, blinking and trying to steady myself.
“What was that you were saying, luv?” Dexter asked innocently.
I scowled at him. “I’m gonna get you back for that.”
“Sure, you will,” he said, laughter in his voice.
The woman from the tourist couple gave me a thumbs-up, and I couldn’t help but giggle. The sound died on my lips as I met Cecilia’s furious glare. It was almost comical how angry she was. So, I just smiled at her. “Something to say?”
She downed the rest of her drink in one swig and slid off her stool. “I think the ambiance in here leaves a little something to be desired.”
“Aw, too bad. We’ll miss you,” I singsonged.
Dexter choked on a laugh as Cecilia’s sidekicks followed her out. “Cleared ’em out with fifteen minutes to spare. I’m in awe of you, luv.”
“As you should be.”
We made quick work of cleaning up. I handled the tables while Dexter followed behind me with the broom. Before long, we were ready to go.
Stepping out into the night, I breathed deeply. The pine air swirled around me, clearing away the scents of the day. Having shifter senses in a confined space for so many hours could be a lot, and as tired as I was, my wolf craved a run.
I started toward Dexter’s SUV, parked a few spots down, but stilled as I scented something that didn’t belong.
Fox.
And I wasn’t talking about the wild animal. I meant shifter. I opened my mouth to yell, but it was too late. A blade was already headed straight
for me.
Dexter’s POV
Locking the deadbolt, I pulled out my key and shoved it into my pocket. As I turned to head for the SUV, I froze. Panic speared through me as a man with red hair and a scraggly beard lunged for Raven, a knife glinting in the building’s lights.
I shouted and jerked into action, running for Raven, but it was too late.
She struck out with a roundhouse kick, sending the blade clattering to the pavement.
The man cursed and lifted his hands, shifting into a fighting stance, a sneer on his face.
“You think you can take me? I can smell your weakness on you.”

It was probably the dumbest thing someone could say to Raven, but she didn’t let her rage show; she used it like Asher had instructed, letting it fuel a jab to his jaw.
The man’s head snapped back with a vicious crack, making him curse again. He was quicker this time, striking out with a hook. But Raven was too fast for him. She ducked the punch and answered with one to his ribs.
“What do you want?” she growled.
The redhead’s lip curled. “There’s a price on your head, and I’m here to collect.”
Hell. The last thing we needed was the dark corners of the supernatural community trying to collect Raven for a reward.
She didn’t really appreciate it either because she hit him with a blow to the face that ended in a sickening crunch.
The man doubled over, cupping his face. “You broke my fucking nose.”
“You’re lucky that’s all I broke,” she snarled, sweeping in behind him and holding him in a choke hold.
