Her phone was to her ear a heartbeat later. After a short pause, she said, “Hi, Madd.”

My forehead creased.

“I heard there’s an alpha in town to meet me. Ox, right? I’m ready to set up that date.”

My wolf snarled.

I nearly did too.

“Oh, don’t worry about Beck. He says there are no rules, so I can do whatever I want. Including meet other men, in hopes of finding a mate who might actually tell me the truth.”

We snarled together at that.

Her defiant gaze collided with mine, her eyes daring me to disagree. To tell her she wasn’t free to do that.

And I wanted to.

Fuck, I wanted to.

But something told me I would regret it if I did.

“Fine. Here he is.” Her voice was clipped as she crossed the distance between us and handed me the phone.

I accepted it, my entire body tense.

“You want me to agree to this?” Madd asked. He sounded tired. “I really don’t want you killing him. I’d rather avoid a pack war, and we’ll need their backup if any more vamps come after our females.”

“I told her she’s free,” I gritted out. “Set up the meeting.”

I couldn’t call it a date.

Not if I wanted to retain my sanity.

Madd sighed. “Fine.”

Sienna held her hand out for the phone, and I forced myself to give it back to her. “Tomorrow night works,” she said. “It’ll be fun. Thanks.”

I’d kill the bastard if he so much as touched her hand, but sure, fun was a good description.

She hung up the phone and tucked it into her pocket, daring me to argue.

I clenched my jaw to stop myself from doing exactly that.

My wolf all but roared at me to do something, and I forced myself to ignore him and stay in my human form.

“I need to work early,” Sienna said, gesturing toward the door.

She wanted me out.

Right.

I jerked my head in a nod, and left the room. She shut the door hard behind me, and I heard the lock twist immediately.

Damn, I’d screwed up.
