Damn, he was pretty.
I didn’t let myself look too long, simply headed down the sidewalk. It didn’t lead me too close to his vehicle, thankfully.
“He threw us in jail. We should make him grovel,”my wolf mumbled, still mostly asleep in my mind.
“I was planning on it.”
“Make sure the groveling includes fucking. We still haven’t done that yet.”
I sighed.
She fell asleep again almost immediately.
The sun hadn’t risen yet, but I could see well in the dark thanks to my plethora of supernatural genes.
It felt good to get out and moving while the rest of the world was asleep. It was about a thirty minute walk, so it wasn’t too big of a deal. My mood lifted with every step I took away from Madd—until I heard a vehicle’s door shut behind me.
A slow breath escaped me, but I kept moving.
There were never any other cars in the parking lot. If we had any neighbors, they didn’t own vehicles.
So, there was no question who had closed their door.
My wolf shook her fur out, waking up more fully with the knowledge that Madd was behind me.
The alpha didn’t say a word as he caught up to me, and I didn’t have to glance over at him to make sure I was right about his identity.
His smell was too damn good for that.
When I heard my purse jiggling, though, my head jerked to the side.
“If you have a conversation with me, I’ll return your things,” Madd said, his voice completely alert.
I supposed if he was a firefighter, he was probably almost as comfortable with early mornings as I was.
“Tempting,”my wolf drawled.“Surely, he could come up with a better deal than that. One that involves an apology for imprisoning us.”
“I know.”
“No thanks,” I told Madd, as I continued walking.
He did too, though he adjusted his grip on my bag. From the corner of my eye, I saw him pull it over his shoulder.
“Your snacks are in here,” he said. “You’ll want them when you’re working.”
“They’reemergencysnacks. I’ve decided not to have an emergency until you feel guilty enough to give it back.”
“What about the tampons?”
“I have extras at work.”
I also hadn’t bled since we’d started going hungry, but Madd didn’t need to know that.
“You’ll need your phone.”
“Actually, it feels nice to be inaccessible. I’m off the grid.” I shimmied my shoulders a little when I said that, unable to stop myself. “My purse looks better on you, anyway.”
I made a show of looking over at him and whistling, and my wolf barked out a laugh when he grumbled at me.
