"The wolves do not know there is a Grey in the house If I had gone out they would have scented me immediately We do not want to provoke them any more than we need to until we are a little more matched in nuht Got it," Jacque said with a nod

Despite what Jacque told Fane, she was very tired She didn’t knohat time it was, and frankly didn’t care She just wanted to lie down and sleep Sally and Jen ot up and took their s to the kitchen and came back to lead Jacque upstairs Jacque hardly noticed them help her lie down and cover her with a blanket She had scarcely laid her head down before she was asleep

Jen and Sally sat on Jacque’s floor They orried about her

"I know she’s tough, but I think this is really wearing her out," Sally said

"Well, duh!" Jen responded "Wouldn’t it wear you out if you’d just met the man of your dreams? Then it turns out he’s a olf, then it turns out you’re his mate or whatever, then it turns out there’s this other pack of wolves with a psycho, olf leader ants you as his et the picture"

"When you put it like that, it is a lot to take in," Sally agreed

Jacque woke up to the sound of Fane’s voice, and for a ht he was in her rooht

"Luna, wake up please," Fane said

"Haven’t we talked about this whole ’waking me up way too early could be hazardous to your health’ thing?" Jacque teased him

"I’m sorry to wake you, love, but I wanted to talk with you before Lucas arrives"

"Uggggh! I was really hoping this was all a bad dream," she moaned"Well, not you I e"

"I’m sorry, Jacquelyn," Fane told her sadly

"Ah well, that’s how it goes I’hten the mood

"That you are, Luna," Fane replied

Jacque picked her phone up to look at the tiet up and get dressed What do you wear to talk to a crazy, Alpha olf? she thought to herself

"As ht

"I was thinking maybe I should wear that bikini you like so much," she teased him

"That would be a very poor choice, Luna I want your marks covered completely," Fane replied

"I think a please is in order," Jacque told hirowled but then relinquished "Please, love"

"Oh, all right, since you’re not being all jealous or possessive," Jacque sot up and tiptoed around her two best friends She wondered if their parents knew they were at her house She figured theyfor theh the shirts she had hanging She honestly hadn’t realized how ure, she told herself

The one she finally settled on made her smile It was a black baby tee that had a picture of Edward froht on the front and on the back the words, "Teay olf"

"You’re just too pleased with yourself, aren’t you?" she heard Fane say
