I turned my head, looking at him over my shoulder. Our eyes collided, and I shuddered.

Those bright red orbs were freaky as hell, especially up close.

The wolf whined again.

"Get off the couch. I didn't invite you to cuddle, and I know you're as much of a guy as you are an animal. We are not sleeping together."

He stood on reluctant legs and slipped off the couch, lowering to his belly on the ground. Though he rested right against the base of the couch, he wasn't touching me, and that was good enough.

I got comfortable again and shut my eyes, falling asleep almost instantly.

I slept peacefullyfor a good long while until a male voice tugged me back to reality.

"Damn, that girl could sleep through a hurricane."

A growl right next to me shook me awake.

I sat up suddenly, jerking my head around the room to see what was going on.

"Sorry, bud. Didn't mean to wake her up." Ford's hands were lifted beside his head in surrender.

He was talking to the wolf.

At least I wasn't the only one who did that.

I looked around the room again, eyes bleary as I tried to remember where I was and what was going on.

Kidnapped, trapped by a wolf, leftover pizza... right.

"I brought you some clothes, courtesy of Jesse's mom. She's excited to meet you, after you're a wolf too of course."

Of course?

Wait, his mom?

What the hell?

"What is this, an arranged marriage?" I blurted.

Ford shrugged. "Kind of. You'll figure it out."

"No, I won't figure it out. I have a full-ride scholarship to one of the best schools in the country. I can't afford to miss the time I've already missed thanks to this...whatever this is." I flung my hand out toward the wolf still lying vigilantly on the ground beside my couch. "I need to get back to my dorm, back to the campus, back to my classes."

"Then ask the wolf to bite you."
