"No, sweetness I&039;ve hadpain" He smiled sadly "Besides, if I really wanted to kill you, I could have done it a dozen ti" She shuddered, and his arhtened around her

Across the street, a neon sign glowed The neighborhood psychic was still open for business Shanna consideredthe police Or maybe she should ask about her future Did she even have one, or had her lifeline run out? Strange, but she didn&039;t feel endangered The Wolf

The chest she was leaning against was broad and solid And he claimed he wanted to protect her She&039;d been so alone lately She wanted to trust him

She took a deep breath to calhed "Jeez, it stinks here What is this place?"

"A cigar shop I gather you don&039;t smoke?"

"No Do you?"

He smiled wryly "Only if I&039;m out in the sun"

Huh? Before she could respond, a dark green car drove past the her toward the curb

"That&039;s Laszlo" He waved to get his friend&039;s attention

The green Honda Accord pulled over to double-park The Wolf Shanna with hiot into a car with him, how could she escape? "Who is this Laszlo? Is he Russian?"

"No"

"His name doesn&039;t sound very American"

Wolf "He&039;s Hungarian, originally"

"And you?"

"American"

"You were born here?"

Now both broent up He was definitely annoyed But he did have a slight accent, and she&039;d rather be safe than sorry

The man inside the Honda fumbled around, and the trunk popped open a few inches Shanna juht be a body inside

"Relax" Wolf?" She tried to jerk away, but her attempt failed miserably "Don&039;t you have a dead body in there?"

He sighed "God help me I suppose I deserve this"

A short reen Honda "Oh, there you are, sir I caered a button on his lab coat "Good evening, miss You&039;re the dentist?"

"She is" Wolflanced over his shoulder "We&039;re in a hurry, Laszlo"

"Yes, sir" Laszlo opened the back door and leaned inside "I&039;ll get Vanna out of your way" He straightened, dragging a woasped

Wolfman clapped a hand over her led to escape, but he pulled her against his chest and held tight

"Look at her, Shanna She&039;s a toy, a human-sized toy"

Laszlo noticed her distress "He&039;s right,off her head, then plopped it back on

Oh God Her Wolfman was not a killer He was a pervert

She elbowed Wolfed to pull away frorab for her, and she jumped back

"Stay away from me, you pervert"

"What?"

She pointed at the doll that Laszlo was shoving into the trunk "Any ot to be a pervert"

Wolfman blinked "It it&039;s not my car"

"And it&039;s not your toy?"

"No" He glanced back "Shit!" He seized her and shoved her toward the car "Get in"

"Why?" She grabbed each side of the doorway and locked her elbows This was the maneuver that alorked in the cartoons when a cat didn&039;t want to be pushed into a tub of water

Wolf her view "A black car is turning onto this street We can&039;t let thereen Honda Those appeared to be her choices God help her that she was ht decision She climbed into the backseat of the Honda Accord and set her purse on the floor She looked out the back , but couldn&039;t see a black car Laszlo still had the trunk up

"Hurry, Laszlo! We&039;ve got to go" Wolflanced out the back

Laszlo slarabbed Shanna by the shoulders and pushed her down

"Aagh!" It all happened so fast A whoosh of air and then, whaainst scratchy black denireat, she was facedown in his lap Her nostrils filled with the scent of he-led to sit up, but he held her down

"Sorry, but our s aren&039;t tinted, and I can&039;t risk theine started, and they were on theher a full facial led until her nose and mouth found a pocket of air After a few deep breaths, she realized her precious pocket of air was the crevice between his legs Wonderful She was doing heavy breathing on his crotch

"The black car is following us" Laszlo sounded worried

"I know" Wolfht"

Shanna attempted to roll onto her side, but the car ainst Wolfainst his zipper Oops Maybe he hadn&039;t noticed She wiggled forward, roin

"Is there a purpose for all this activity?"

Oh dear He had noticed "I¡ªI couldn&039;t breathe" She squir on her side with her cheek against his thighs

The car suddenly halted Shanna slid back and knocked against his zipper once again

He winced

"Sorry" Jeez First she&039;d given hier How ? She inched her head forward again

"Sorry, sir," Laszlo said "The light just turned red all of a sudden"

"I understand" Wolfhtly on Shanna&039;s head "Could you stop wiggling, please?"

"Sir, they&039;re pulling up beside us!"

"That&039;s all right Let theood look They&039;ll only see two men"

"What should I do now?" Laszlo asked "Go straight or turn?"

"Make a left turn at the next intersection We&039;ll see if they follow us then"

"Yes, sir" Laszlo was beginning to sound ill "You know, I&039; Maybe we should call for Connor or Ian"

"You&039;re doing fine That reasped and grabbed his knees to keep steady The hs bunched and rippled beneath her cheek Oh, Lordy, what a thrill ride

"Here" He lowered his hips back onto the seat "I had your damned phone in my back pocket"

"Oh" She shifted onto her back so she could see The car lurched forward, and she rolled into his groin, nose against his zipper

"Sorry," she murmured, and scooted away

"No problem" He dropped the phone on the car seat "I don&039;t think you should use it If they know your number, they can trace any call you make and find your location"

Heto keep her fro around

The car swerved left Luckily, she slid only a fraction down his thighs this ti us?" she asked

"1 don&039;t see them" Laszlo sounded excited

"Let&039;s not celebrate just yet" Wolfman looked from side to side "Drive around a bit o to your home or the lab?"

"What lab?" Shanna atterip on her shoulder and forced her back down "Stay put This isn&039;t over yet"

Great She was beginning to suspect he enjoyed lanced down at her "Romatech Industries"

"Oh, I&039;ve heard of them"

He raised a brow "You have?"

"Of course They&039;ve saved millions of lives with their artificial b-blood Is that where you work?"

"Yes, we both work there"

Shanna breathed a sigh of relief "That&039;s wonderful Then, you&039;re into saving lives, not destroying them"

"That is our wish, yes"

"You never introduced yourself I can&039;t keep calling you Wolfman"

His brows shot up "I told you I am not a olf"

"You have a wolf&039;s tooth in your pocket"

"It&039;s part of an experiment Like the doll in the trunk"

"Oh" Shanna turned her head toward the front seat "Is that what you&039;re working on, Laszlo?"

"Yes,to be alarmed about"

"Well, that&039;s a relief" Shanna s around with a couple of perverts" She turned back to Wolfrazed his zipper Oops His pants hadn&039;t stuck out that far before

She scooted back an inch "Maybe I should sit up now"

"It&039;s not safe"

Right And she was safe one inch froroin had not caused any lasting dae Wolfman ell on his way to a full recovery Very full "So, what is your naanesti"

Laszlo spun around a corner too fast

She slid against Roe, rock-hard Roman "Sorry" She tilted her head away froer by the o?" Laszlo asked "The lab or your home?"

Roers gently stroked, drawing little circles on her skin

She shivered Her heart started to race

"We&039;ll take her to my home," he whispered

Shanna sed hard Soht, a turn that would change the rest of her life

The car came to an abrupt stop Her head wobbled with the car&039;s ainst the strained deniroaned and fixed his eyes on her face

She gasped His eyes were red It couldn&039;t be It had to be a reflection froht

"Are you sure she&039;ll be safe at your house?" Laszlo asked
