Chapter 25 Eve Seeks Revenge
Jane
“Jane!” Ethan’s deep bass echoes in my ears, sending shiv ers down my spine and making my knees shake. At first I tell my self I only imagined it, but then the palpable silence hanging be tween us becomes too heavy to deny.
| stop in my tracks, trying to act nonchalant. “Who is Jane?” || ask, not bothering to turn around.
“You’re really going to keep playing this game?” He de mands, sounding as angry as I’ve ever heard him.
“I’m sure I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I insist, dig
ging in my heels.
“Like you don’t know what happened last night?” Ethan drawls, his footsteps drawing nearer.
“I’ve already told you, you fell.” I remind him, determined to stick to my story at all costs. The last thing I need is for him to re member I attacked him. I hadn’t even thought about what I was
doing in the moment. It was only after, when I saw his blood, that | truly processed what i’d done: I attacked the Alpha. Yes he kissed me without asking, but I let him. I was kissing him back every bit as passionately as he was kissing me and then I turned on him out of nowhere.
I can only imagine what the punishment would be. He cer tainly wouldn’t turn me over to law enforcement. I’m sure he’d de vise some creative and completely twisted revenge to which he could subject me.
“Bull.” He snaps, refusing my assertion point blank.
“You had a lot to drink.” I argue, hating how hyperaware I am of the man. I know exactly where he stands without looking, and I feel his nearness like a drug. “Not even Alpha’s are immune to drunken accidents.”
“The strange thing is how I happened to fall here, outside your door.” Ethan replies, his hot breath fluttering over my ear.
“Maybe you were stalking me.” | suggest, shifting restlessly from foot to foot.
“No, I seem to remember you being there.” He announces, sending my heart plummeting into my stomach.
No, oh no, he remembers. He knows what I did!
“That doesn’t mean you weren’t stalking me.” I reason, trying to keep my voice steady.
Ethan’s huge, calloused hands land on my waist, pinning me to the spot and terrifying me to the core. “What happened last night, Jane?”
“Stop calling me that.” I beg.
“Why?” He growls, “What bothers you about it so much?”
“It isn’t my name.” | lie, “Why wouldn’t it bother me?” || breathe, “And all I know about last night, is what Linda told me. She found you unconscious in her hallway, and called me to fill me in before I got home, that’s all.”
The Alpha’s hands tighten, sending pulses of heat straight to
my core. “Then why can I still taste you?” He rumbles.
