He was his own person, and he was a hell of a lot older than me, so he wasn’t just going to become a mindless follower. But if he fell in love with me, I would have sway with him.
I would have some amount of power in the situation. He would need me.
If Iwas going to be stuck with him for the rest of our immortal lives, I didn’t want to do it as the pretty little wolf on his arm and in his bed, which was all he apparently wanted.
At the very least, I wanted us to be equals. Friends would be better. Love was ideal.
But how was I going to make him fall in love with me? That was the question.
Sex and companionship were all I could come up with, and he didn’t seem to have any desire to spend time with me. Even though he had seemed to want that with my wolf.
Guess I was going to have to go with sex.
Maybe I could seduce him. It wasn’t like I didn’t already want him. If it worked, maybe he’d relax enough to tell me the truth.
With that decided, I focused on my spreadsheets.
AKA my arch nemeses.
I managedto work for all of thirty minutes.
Which was about the time amoving crewshowed up.
Callum led them stiffly into the living room. "Take the couch."
I watched in stunned silence as the crew picked up the couch and carried it out of the mansion, piece by piece.
"What the actual fuck?" I asked Callum.
He had the audacity to smirk at me."It's a good thing there's a bed inourroom, isn't it, Kitten?"
My eyebrows lifted.
"He's terrible,"my wolf purred.
"You're way too happy about that."
She licked her paw.
Callum walked back into his office, and I once again couldn't stop myself from staring at his ass.
"Forget the seduction plan,"I said to my wolf."If he's going to be this much of a dick, I'm not going to fuck him. I'm going to give him balls so blue he begs me to stop teasing him."
"You're going to be as terrible as he is."She licked her paw again.
Hell yeah, I was.
And I was going to be absolutely shameless about it.

We barely spoke over dinner.
When I went back to work, he did too.
Around ten, he came striding out of his office, his eyes narrowed at me yet again.
