Her fingers cupped his swollen cock, his throbbing balls, through the painfully tight denim.She opened her eyes, gazed up at him, her hand moving over his shaft in slow strokes.
“Release me, Regan,” he repeated.His whole body was numb.Numb and gloriously aware.She was his lifemate.And he was going to claim her.
She stared at him, the heat from her body folding around him, her hands pressed to his sex and said, “I can’t.”
Declan’s throat clamped shut.
Regan shook her head, and before he could stop her, she was on her feet, moving away from him in backward steps, reknotting the torn front of her top, her eyes never leaving his.“Not yet.Not until I know you’re better.”She reached the barn door and pressed her palms to its rough wooden surface without turning around.Her eyes beseeched him to understand.His body roared for her to come back.
“Regan.”
“I’ll be back soon, Declan.I promise.”
She pushed at the door, a sliver of brilliant sunlight pouring through the thin crack she made.
And the stench hit him.Hard.Powerful.Malevolent.
Wolf.
Loup garou.
He leapt to his feet and the chains snapped tight, jerking him back to his knees with brutal force.“Regan!”he screamed.“Behind you!”
She turned.Just as the door swung wide and McCoy filled the glaringly bright opening, towering over her like the harbinger of Death, cold, red-gold eyes triumphant.
“Told you I was gonna fuck her,” he smirked before, with frightening speed, he reached out, grabbed Regan by the arms and yanked her to his massive body.
CHAPTERTEN
She couldn’t move.The man gripped her arms so cruelly tight, she couldn’t move.Nails sank into her flesh like claws, right below her armpits.She felt them puncture her skin and muscle.She stared up into his face, into eyes of molten lava.Dread crashed through her like a wall of crushing ice.
“Leave her alone, you fucking bastard!”She heard Declan scream behind her.
McCoy laughed, his hideous burning gaze razing her flesh.“I’m going to have so much fun with this bitch, O’Connell.”He pulled her harder into his body and she felt—oh, God help her—a long, thick and solid erection grind against her belly.“For every minute of trouble you’ve caused me, I’m going to stick my dick in her cunt and make her scream and curse your name.”
Fear exploded in Regan’s chest.She bucked against McCoy’s brutal grip, lashing out with her feet.“Let me go, you fuck!”
He laughed again, and without effort, hauled her off her feet, snatching her in a crushing bear hug tight enough to send splintering pain through her ribs.His stare bored into hers and he bared his teeth in a terrifying smile.“Not for a while, lass.Not until I’m finished with you.”
“Leave her alone, McCoy, or so help me?—”
McCoy’s laugh boomed through the barn, his hulky chest vibrating against Regan’s body like an earthquake.“No one’s going to help you, O’Connell.No one at all.”
A movement in the corner of Regan’s eye caught her attention.She swung her head around and her heart stopped at the sight of two men stepping out beside McCoy, each radiating menace and hate.“Declan!”
She thrashed in McCoy’s hold, and he chuckled at her efforts.“Thanks for chaining him up for me, lass.”
Regan spat in his face.“You fucking bastard!Let me go!”
“I like her spirit, O’Connell,” McCoy commented, dropping her to the floor and snatching her flailing wrists in one large fist.He fixed her with a smoldering stare, wiping her spittle from his cheek with a casual swipe.He looked at the two men beside him.“Deal with the Irish mongrel.Remember, Epoc needs him alive.”He turned his gaze back to Regan, fist crushing her wrist bones together.“I’m going to get acquainted with this little lassie here.”
Regan’s stomach rolled at the promise in his eyes.She yanked against his hold, her blood chilling her veins, her pulse pounding in her ears.Burning friction tore at the skin on her wrists and she cried out, McCoy closing his fist tighter as he began to walk, dragging her away from the barn.
Toward a familiar van parked under an ancient eucalypt.
Regan stared at the gaping back doors, at the darkness within.Every fiber in her being knew what was going to happen next.Oh, God!Help me!
Behind her, a wolf howled.Long.Wild.
