The Amazing Son in Law The Charismatic Charlie Wade

Chapter 72 Audrey & Edwin Audrey's POV

The warmth of Jake's arms was surprisingly comforting, and soon, my tears subsided-or maybe it was just the cool night air that was clearing my head. Sniffling one last time, I wiped at my damp checks with the back of my hand and leaned back a

bit.

"Feeling better?" Jake asked, his hands still wrapped around my waist. I hadn't realized how close our bodies were until now.

I nodded and forced a small smile. "Yeah," I replied meekly. "Thank you for that."

Jake's lips tugged upwards at the corners. "No problem."

There was a brief silence, and I tried to pull back a little bit more-although his arms around my waist were almost like iron. "I should probably find my friend and head home," I said, trying once again to step back.

Jake's grip tightened almost imperceptibly. His expression changed, his eyes darkening as they roamed over my body. The look in his eyes made me shiver, and not in a good way. "Or... you could come back to my hotel. I could make you feel event

My heart started racing, a thousand different possibilities flashing through my mind. This alley was empty, and perhaps no one would hear me if I called for help.

And perhaps that had been his plan all along.

Jake, I said no. Please let go."

He didn't seem to hear me, or maybe he just didn't care. His eyes had a predatory gleam now, and he dipped his head to press a scorching kiss to the side of my neck. Tears instantly sprang to my eyes, and I began to squirm against his iron grip.

"You've probably only been with human men, right?" he growled into my ear. "Trust me, werewolf men are much bigger. 1 could make you feel so good tonight, baby."

"No," I said firmly, pushing against his chest with both hands. The panic was rising in my throat, and I felt like I might be sick. "Let me go. Now
