The Sickened Luna's Last Chance novel Chapter 494

I didn’t have a chance to react before the needle pressed into the side of my neck. Jane pushed down on the plunger, and in an instant, heat flooded my system. My wolf howled as the warmth coursed through me, pooling in my low belly and groin.

“What…. Did you… Do?” I snarled, grabbing Jane’s wrist. My vision blurred, every touch turning into fire against my skin. Jane grinned and ground her hips down on me, momentarily making my eyes roll back with ecstasy.

But this wasn’t right. This wasn’t what I wanted. Even with my system clouded, I knew what this was.

Jane looked at me for a moment as if trying to gauge whether I was being serious or not. When she realized that I was, she scrambled to her feet and ran. The door slammed behind her.

I stood there for a moment, trying to process what had just happened, but it was difficult with the aphrodisiac still working through my system. I stumbled to the bathroom and turned on the cold shower, stepping in fully clothed.
