I swear, if I smell her on them...
I turn up my nose, and I’m relieved when I don’t smell her honey scent mixed in with theirs. But they’re not out of hot water. Yet.
“Want to tell me why your dicks are out?”
“Oh fuck, I think it’s broken.” He looks down in horror at himself. With great hesitation, he touches it and immediately hisses, drawing his hand back. “Yeah, it’s definitely broken. That fucking bitch—”
“Hey.” I snap my fingers, demanding their attention. “What. Happened. Here?”
“She attacked us, sir,” the other says.
“We were just doing our jobs.”
They nod, verifying each other’s story.
Looking between the two of them, I ask, “How stupid do you think I am?”
No reply.
“I’ll ask you again. What. Happened?”
They glance at each other, communicating with their facial expressions not to tell me.
“Speak!”
“We—We didn’t touch her. I swear.”
But he wanted to.
“And Jay?”
“Only when she bent them.”
My wolf settles.
“We were just trying to have a little fun. She seemed into it.”
“She’s a tease is what she is,” the other snarks.
“Yeah. But then when we got close—”
I wave my hands at them to stop. She played them, and I don’t care to hear what she might have done to convince them. Did she drop to her knees? Did she maintain eye contact as she reached down?
The image of her as a seductress is tainted when I remember she did that to my men and not me. The idea that she touched them, even if it was to break them...
“Leave,” I seethe.
It takes them longer than I’d like for them to help each other up and hobble up the stairs.
My blood is still boiling, but I go cold when I see Jay’s cell door is open.
She’s gone, but her scent tells me she isn’t far.
Everything around me slows as I call on my powers. My senses heighten to a supernatural level.
Come out, come out, wherever you are.
My ears tickle at the faint footsteps no normal wolf or other species could hear. The displaced air from her movements spread her scent like wildfire.
