the bed adjusting her clothes. She turned to look at him, and saw that he had no shirt on, showing off his hard, chiseled plains, distracting her for a moment. She followed the plains of his body to his lower abs, where she saw the evidence of their foreplay smattered against his skin and tangled in his happy trail. Her mouth watered as she thought about licking it off.
She looked at his face and saw his little know-it-all smirk, which made her shake her head and then frown.
“Look, Josh,” she started, trying to use her fingers as a comb. “I know you think I’m your mate because of the way I smell or something, but it’s just not possible. For one, I'm human and I like being human. I don’t want to become a werewolf.”
He frowned at her, “And you’ll stay human. Just because you are mated to me doesn’t mean you will become a werewolf.”
“Okay, well if that’s true, don’t you live a lot longer than humans? So, I’ll die long before you do,” she responded.
“No,” he replied, sitting up and sliding toward the edge of the bed. “When I claim you, you will be able to live as long as I do.”
She stepped back, trying to think of another reason they weren’t mates. “Okay, what about children? I’m human, I can’t have puppies.”
Josh laughed as he stood, grabbing his t-shirt from the floor to wipe the cum off his stomach. Sidney took another step back.
“Our offspring aren’t born as pups,” he explained. “They don’t change until they hit puberty.”
Sidney was bewildered by this information. Poor kids—didn’t only have the problems puberty usually brought a teenager, but changed into werewolves as well.
“Well that sucks for the kids,” she said, more to herself. “Don’t they have enough to deal with?”
Josh chuckled as he took a step closer to her, “It’s not so bad.”
She stepped back again, aware that she was running out of space between her and the wall.
“Still, have you ever seen a human and a werewolf mated?” she asked.
“Could you stop saying werewolf? We’re not some fictitious creature that goes around biting people and tearing people apart,” he stated.
“Well, I’m pretty sure that’s what your friends, Alana and Russ, wanted to do to me when you guys kidnapped me,” she retorted.
Something dark and menacing passed across his face, “Alana and Russ are no friends of mine anymore, and you are forbidden to speak their names again.”
She felt her hackles rise in defensiveness at his order, “And why? Am I not good enough to speak their names? Are they so superior because I’m just a lowly human?”
“No,” he growled, stepping closer to her and making her step back against the wall. “Their names do not deserve to fall from your lips. You are superior—you are my mate.”
He stepped into her, pushing her against the wall and bracing his arms on either side of her head.
“The thought of what they wanted to do to you makes me want to find them and tear them apart,” he continued, his face a hard mask of anger. “That is why you are not allowed to speak their names.”
Something in her warmed at his words, but she had to harden herself from it if she hoped to get out alive.
“You can’t tell me what to do,” she responded, noting how she sounded like a petulant child. “I won’t listen.”
“I can tell you what to do. I am your Alpha,” he stated. “If you don’t listen to what I say, you will be punished.”
“You are not my Alpha,” she argued. “I am not some dumb wolf, and just try to punish me, buster. See where it gets you.”
“I am your Alpha because you are my mate,” he said, very quietly and menacingly. “Don’t push me to punish you, Sidney, you won’t like the outcome.”
“Don’t threaten me,” she shot back.
He smirked, but it wasn’t the lazy cocky smirk from earlier. This one was more terrifying and cold.
“It’s not a threat, my dear,” he replied. “It’s a full on
