An arm slid around my waist, and I was lifted off my feet as Corbin carried me over to the bar, sitting me on a stool.
I looked up at him and grinned when I didn’t see any anger or worry coming from him. “At least I didn’t cut off her hands for touching you.”
His lips twitched. “That’s only because I didn’t let you bring knives.”
My grin grew. “You know me so well already.” I hugged him to me, pressing my face into his chest.
Whispers started as the music was turned down. My mate wouldn’t hear the chatter. Only I could with my shifter senses.
“Who’s that with the prez?”
“Why is Razor lettin’ some guy hug him?”
“What’s goin’ on?”
“That shit is sick.”
“I knew that fucker was gonna run this club to the ground.”
That one I didn’t like. That one I would remember and make note of the voice. If I heard it again or saw the man, I would point him out to Corbin in case he was trouble later for him. Me, I didn’t care what anyone thought. If my mate was happy, I would be too. But if some murdering got thrown in with that happiness, I’d be an ecstatic little fox.
“Are you seriously going to let him talk to me like that?”
I rolled my forehead on Corbin’s chest to the side and stared at the same female who was close to signing her own death.
She saw me peeking just as I imagined the blood running from her neck after I sawed it open. Maybe she could read my mind because she took a step back. I smiled.
“Harper, you need to heed Riker’s warning,” Corbin told her. “Let it be known to the other girls too.”
She snorted. “You’ve got to be fucking kidding me. What is this?”
I dropped my hands, my head, and breathed.
Kill.
Kill.
Kill.
The thought drilled into me over and over. I wanted to claw out her eyes. Cut off her tongue and gut her. Even my fox desired to devour her innards for talking to our mate like that.
My body vibrated with the hunger for her blood.
Slowly, I lifted my head enough to look out and lock on my prey.
Another growl sounded from my chest. One I couldn’t stop.
Anger burned under my skin. I scraped my fingers up and down my thighs to try and stop the need to attack.
Corbin stepped in front of my view.
“Fuck off, Harper. Now.”
“But—”
“Bitch, you heard the prez. Get the fuck away,” a hard voice said off to our side.
With a huff, Harper scattered.
