safe from everyone but me. I can smell how hot you’re getting, you know. Give me a bit to take care of matters and I’ll be able to scratch that itch you’re trying so hard to ignore.”
    “That is not your concern. And I didn’t ask for your protection, Alpha.”
    “Regardless, you’ve dropped this problem at my doorstep, and I will handle it and you.” His cheeky grin rubbed her the wrong way. Her nails cut into her palms as she glared at him.
    “Is the big, bad Wolf going to go huff and puff until the Vamps run for cover?” She sneered at him when her taunt got a grin from him instead of the temper she hoped to prick.
    “Spoiling for another fight, Kitten?” His head turned, and his blue eyes glittered. “I told you, I’m more than ready to accommodate you once I get you in my personal chambers.” His white teeth glowed as he leered at her like a hungry dog.
    “Go to hell, Wolf!” Her hiss got a good-natured chuckle from him.
    “I probably will. But until then, I’m sure you’ll get me used to the conditions down there.”
    “Jerk.” She turned to stare out at the scenery they were passing. Houses were becoming scarce as they moved into a rural area with lots of trees. The Wolven pack would own lots of acres of prime pastures and woodlands. She knew they liked to run and hunt without human contact. She wondered what it would feel like to spend the night running and playing with the man sitting beside her. He was ripped beneath that T-shirt. She’d scored her nails over those rock-hard abs. She rubbed her itchy palms and wiggled a little in her seat. Goddess, help her! She could still feel him deep inside where she was a little sore from his use.
    Allison knew she was blushing as she felt his head turn toward her, his thoughts on the same path as hers as he inhaled her scent loudly. She and tried to ignore the way her body was thrumming inside as she heard his deep growl of male approval. Her embarrassment was immediately forgotten the instant she caught sight of the impressive wrought iron gates. Her skin prickled in a warning as Reginald slowed Casper and pulled off to the side of the road. He turned off the ignition before placing a hand over her twisting fingers.
    “Relax, pet. You’ll come to no harm here.”
    “I didn’t ask to come here.” She winced at the whine in her voice. What was wrong with her? She rarely acted like a baby.
    “Didn’t you?” He took a deep breath before squeezing her hand and releasing it. “It makes no difference. You are here now. What is done is done, and neither of us can go back to change it.”
    “What does that mean?” She huffed softly. “Don’t get cryptic on me, Reginald.”
    “It means I made a choice, and there’s no getting out of it. You’re my problem now. Come on.” He opened the door and quickly got out. “I’ll have one of the guys get your car, though it would probably be better if we had it junked.”
    “Don’t insult my car.” She snapped as she sat still. She would wait until he shut his door to slide into the driver’s seat. She would finally be rid of the insufferable man.
    “Get out or I’ll take you out myself.” His words were low as he leaned back inside the car to glare at her. She hissed through her teeth but undid her belt and threw open her door. He was on the other side and taking her arm as her boots hit the ground.
    “Am I your captive now? A prisoner without a choice or a voice, not even a true mate with a say in my own future? Big, bad Alpha needs to force himself on a woman to get a mate—”
    “Do yourself a favor and keep that sharp little tongue silent. You’re pushing your luck with me, Witch.” His fingers bit into her upper arm as he dragged her up to the gate. She stared up at the massive fence with a hesitation she didn’t understand. There was something about the way the iron was wrapped around itself. There were symbols there. Powerful wards against intruders. Her stomach ached with a pain
