Harley paced the cement floor, her expression distracted as she pondered his words
"Darcy" She softly tested the naan"
"They are very , refusing to aze "Caine said there were four of us"
"There’s another sister who I haven’t yet found I suspect Caine knohere she is"
She halted unconsciously close to the cage, her eyes troubled as she shook her head
"No I don’t believe you"
Salvatore was a Were who fir opportunity Especially when that opportunity included a gorgeous female who set his blood on fire
"Then believe this" He reached through the bars, grabbing the straps of her sports bra and yanking her close enough to kiss her A groan ruer He shivered as wild lightning streaked through hiainst her lips
For a breathless ly as indifferent as Salvatore to the painful silver between them Then with a muttered curse, she pulled away, her eyes dark with alarlare that would have seared the skin off a lesser man, Harley stormed from the room and slammed the door behind her
Lunatic
Salvatore shoved his fingers through his hair
He couldn’t agree more
Harley reached the top of the stairs when Caine appeared in the hallway, a pair of faded deni low on his hips, his hair still damp from the shower
"I heard the alarm" His eyes darted to the door she’d just closed behind her "What the hell is going on?"
Harley blocked the door, her emotions in an unpleasant jumble And all because of that stupid Were
Wasn’t it bad enough that he’dthat Caine had ever told her? Not that she had ever been fully on board with Caine’s sed too often over the years to be coly mojo or whatever it was to make her melt beneath his kiss
It was despicable
She lifted a hand and pressed it to her lips They still tingled with pleasure And they weren’t the only thing tingling
It had to be that damned musky s
Stirring up her anger to cover the craving that still prickled through her body, Harley pointed a finger in Caine’s face
"I warned you that your delusions of grandeur were going to get you killed," she snarled "Salvatore has dropped in for a visit"
"Shit" Caine’s face paled "Did you get hied?"
"Do you mean did I save your ass frolanced toward the closed door to the basement, his brow furrowed
"I need to aze The cur was acting strangely, even for Caine
"Fine I’ll keep an eye on the prisoner"
Like a striking snake, Caine reached out to grab her arm "No"
"Why not?"
His s in the same room as a rabid Were who has sworn to kill you?"
"He’s locked in a silver cage For the moment he’s helpless"
"A pureblood is never helpless"
Harley studied the too-handsome face Caine didn’t want her near Salvatore The question hy?
"If you’re afraid he ht escape, that’s all the lowed in the diuard duty You have better things to do with your tied "Not really Besides, I want to talk with the Were"
"Talk to hihtened on her arm "Of course it does"
"Why?"
"I don’t want you exposed to the filth he’s bound to spew"
Harley snorted Like ed to adopt the social nore of tie The older delow in his eyes shi onto his wolf by a thread Curs were always at the mercy of their e lies that hide his evil nature The Weres would never have allowed him to stay in power otherwise"
