Her scent was every–fucking–where. It was up his nostrils and clinging to his clothes and skin.

“Calm down. Zeke

Calm down? Calm down?! How the fuck was he supposed to calm down when a human was calling to him like she was siren? He had sensed her presence and smelled her long before she appeared on that bastard’s arm.

She had been touching him! And she had let him touch her! The moment Jared had put his hand on her knee, he had been seconds from ripping that arm off. Rapping it off and then stuffing it so deep up that stupid dick’s ass before ripping his head

off.

Shadow snarled again, doing everything he could to escape his control. He continued pacing up and down the path behind the kitchens, clenching and unclenching his fists.

Last night, she’d had that ridiculous cap covering most of her face and her boyish clothes covering her body, but now he could see her so clearly. When she had walked in, he’d felt like he’d been sucker–punched. She was so small, barely reached his chest, but the package she came in… The delicate facial features, the curves he could see under her fitted blazer, the way her hips widened at the waist, and the legs… With so much skin exposed, his mind had gone to one place.

Why hadn’t she just done as he had told her? Why had she come to the assembly like she was staying here: Why had she paraded herself, swinging her hips as she walked like she was on some fucking runway? Then, when she’d let that bastard seat her in the Alpha seats, she looked at him like she didn’t know she was doing something wrong. She had met his gaze head–on so defiantly that he had been lost instantly in those big blue eyes.

Shadow wanted to make her submit to him right there. And he had wanted to mark her for all the bastards to see.

That was not good. That was not fucking good at all.

Even now, despite the rage he felt, he could feel the heat rushing through his body as the need to pin her down under him threatened to take him over.

“What’s this about? Was it Jared?” Myles asked.

He didn’t answer them. They were his friends and future hands but were still under his father’s command. They would report this in a heartbeat.

“Are you worried about the Council coming early? Derek asked Look, man. I already said 171 back you up. What happened over the break wasn’t your fault, plus I’m pretty sure that if it was a problem, they wouldn’t have waited all this time.”
