That’s not how this works. Sascha was right. I do not care for the confines of your pack.

Too bad.

“Do you feel like a whore when you let him inside you?” she hissed.

The growls ramped up.

Her words were for Sascha’s benefit as much as mine, and his growl inside the bungalow was about the most menacing thing I’d ever heard. “I wouldn’t know. What I do know is that you’re embarrassing yourself.”

It was the wrong thing to say, and I knew it before uttering the words.Yep, she’d officially gotten under my skin.

Her fist clenched as I gunned the engine.

“Hit me if you like, Rhona. It may make you feel better for a little while.”

“Perhaps,” she said. “Except there’s nowhere to wash my hands after.”

“You can say what you like to me,” I directed us away from the bungalow. “I’ll be here through it all. I won’t say goodbye to you.”

She laughed as we left the buildings behind, but I knew every wolf in over a kilometre radius could hear us.

My phone rang, and I fumbled to grab it.

Rhona swiped it up and turned on speaker. “Hello?”

“Hey,” Wade said. “How did she go?”

Ah, shit nuts.

Thunderstorms closed in over Rhona’s face. “Shewent fine.”

Inaccurate. I’d tell Wade the truth later.

“Oh, heeey, Rhona.”

I coughed. “Wade, Rhona is driving back with me.”

“Apparently.”

“You know everything,” she said.

“Huh, what?”

She gripped the phone hard. “Don’t fuck with me, steward.”

Wade was silent for a beat. “Yeah, Rhona, I know. And guess what? Andie made a mistake, but you’re being a massive bitchhole about this.”

I groaned inwardly, squeezing the steering wheel. “Thanks so much for the input, Wade. I’ll see you later.”

Now she’d think I was bitching about her. He’d just made things ten times worse.

Wade squeaked and hung up as we rolled past the harvest fields.

“When did you tell him?”

“He came across me in a down moment a few weeks ago.”

I hadn’t thought she could be angrier at me, but yep, it happened before my very eyes to a startling degree. The rage spilling everywhere was methodically tucked in and frozen until a chilled shell remained in the passenger seat beside me.
