didn’t agree to go anywhere with you.” It was all she could do to push the words out of her throat and not strangle him where he sat.
    “Well, lass, if you intend to go back to Wicked Ways and search for your sister, the only way you’re getting through that door is with me as your date.”
    “Your what ?” She had to refrain from reaching up to manually close her mouth, because it had to be hanging open like a sprung hinge.
    He leaned forward in the chair. “My date,” he reiterated.
    “That’s what I thought you said.” She came from behind the couch and leaned against the arm, still keeping her distance. “This is your brilliant plan to get my sister back?” She smirked. “We start dating?”
    He cocked his head. “No, smartass.” His eyes narrowed, but the fire there wasn’t smoldering from anger.
    “Hey!” She straightened and grinned. “Watch it, asshole.”
    Arran smiled—really smiled. Warmth spread through the center of her chest, the heat of it drawing her hand to her heart. She worked her palm over the sensation, and just for a moment, the tension in the room mellowed. Lowering her hand, she wished they could always be this way when together. Who knew, maybe even become friends? Something in her heart told her he really could use one. And nothing would make her happier than to be that friend. Even if he was a bullheaded Neanderthal most of the time.
    “I thought about this last night. The best way to search for your sister and keep you safe is for you to appear taken.”
    “Taken…” She raised her brows. “Kind of an extreme word choice, don’t you think?”
    He pulled his legs in, stood, and made his way over to her. The way he moved wasn’t as simple as putting one leg in front of the other. It was as if the room buckled under his will. The walls collapsed inward, and space and time bent to bring him nearer to his target. Was it an illusion? She didn’t think so. He was magick.
    A single callous finger lifted her chin, and his smoldering gaze held hers. Her breath caught, waiting on his next move.
    “I think taken …” His words were slow and deliberate. “In this situation, is the perfect word.” He blinked and pulled his hand back. “If you’re with me, no one is going to make a move on you. We both know there’s a real possibility here that your search for Alexandria may lead us straight to Markus and Marguerite. It only makes sense we work together.” He stepped back and nodded toward the stairs. “So go on—finish, and then we’ll leave.”
    She headed for the stairs. The cool wood felt good under her bare feet as she jogged silently up the steps. But it did little to chill the warmth brewing inside. Her broad smile reflected in the mirror. A date. She was going out with Arran. Not the normal kind of first date a girl envisioned for herself, but for her, the word normal didn’t exist anymore.
    …
    Markus plunged the extra-large purple vibrator deep into Marguerite’s ass once more, adding a hard suck with his mouth onto the head of her clitoris. She screamed, arching her back off the bundle of furs that lined the floor in her bedroom. Her fingers dug into his shoulders, her sharp nails boring into his flesh. The searing burn clouded his vision. A series of quakes rocked her body around him. Fuck. She was in her glory.
    His cock ached to be the hard length sliding home inside her. But there were times when Marguerite liked her toys. Who was he to complain, when he got the pleasure of fucking her with them? In the end, she would reward him—if he pleased her well.
    Her tremors cooled, and she uncurled her fingers. After pulling the vibrator from her lube-slickened hole, he dropped it onto a towel beside them and crawled up her body until he straddled her waist. Her pupils filled her eyes, leaving only a small ring of emerald green visible around the perimeter. With a hiss, he allowed his fangs to drop fully into sight. A wicked grin spread across her face, and she
