One day, he was going to help her, but that time wasn’t now.
“Thank you for the sandwich.” He pulled out some money, but she shook her head.
“For you, alpha, it’s on the house.” She offered him a smile, and his dick twitched. He wanted to fuck her so badly, but he couldn’t do it.
Forcing a smile to his lips and telling himself repeatedly in his head to walk away, he turned and left.
He had so many jobs to do, and dragging Suzy off to his cabin and showing her just how well suited she would be on the end of his dick, wasn’t how he could spend his Monday morning.
When he could finally claim her, he intended to make sure the pack knew he couldn’t be disturbed for at least a month.
His mission with Suzy was to put his baby inside her as soon as possible.
****
So far there was no bloodshed to contend with at the dance, and for Suzy, she was happy. She hated the sight of blood, and it often made her feel sick. Not that anyone would ever know that. She would never tell anyone her reactions to blood. They would all laugh, and it was hard enough being the unchanging wolf, let alone one that couldn’t stand violence.
She hated it.
She loved the pack though, even if they were overly judgey of her. Her inability to shift was in fact the talk of the town. Most of the pack looked down on her because of it. If she couldn’t cook or take care of them, she truly believed she’d be tossed out of the pack.
There were times when Beast was near that he sent her confusing signals. What none of the pack knew about her—and she kept it a closely guarded secret—was she could sniff people’s lies and deceit.
Every time Beast was near, there was a scent coming from him, something that made her mouth water, and the temptation to lie down and spread her legs for him was strong. Nearing the bar, she smiled at the bartender, Phillip, who handed her a glass of water.
“I’m telling you, tonight I am going to fuck the alpha. He’s going to belong to me, and he’s going to see how good I can make this pack,” Lorna said.
Lorna was one of the strongest, most dominant women in the pack. Even as the scent of her strength surrounded her, Suzy detected a hint of lies and insecurity. The alpha didn’t show her any interest. She knew it, and so did Suzy.
“He wouldn’t be able to find a more capable female,” Rachel said. She was Lorna’s number one champion and from what Suzy could tell, someone who was very much in love with Lorna.
She wasn’t going to go there.
“You did a good job, Suzy,” Lorna said.
There was a time they were friends in school. When Suzy wasn’t able to turn into a wolf though, Lorna distanced herself from her.
“Thank you. I hope you enjoy and don’t forget to dance at least, please.” She offered Lorna a smile along with Rachel.
“You know you don’t have to talk to her,” Rachel said. “Everyone knows she is lame. I can’t believe we even keep her in the pack.”
“Mind your tongue,” Lorna said. “Suzy is pack and always will be. Your dislike of her is unfounded and frankly, cruel. She has done nothing to you.”
Suzy left, seeing no point in trying to fight her corner. Lorna had done it for her, and Suzy made a note to send her a gift basket of goodies in the morning.
She needed some fresh air.
The scent of need, sex, and violence was heavy in the air, and when this happened, it made her feel a little overwhelmed.
Once out the door, she rounded the building, going to the back of the bar toward the lake.
She loved being by the lake as the still water helped to calm her nerves in ways nothing else could.
Taking a deep breath, she stared out at the lake, seeing how beautiful it was. There were fish swimming beneath, but the pack preferred hunting to fishing.
“You shouldn’t be out here by yourself,” Beast said, startling her.
She spun around, and sure enough, the alpha, who was twice the size of her, in pure muscle stood there, looking a little … torn.
“I’m sorry. The dance is in the barn. There are a lot of women waiting for you.” There was that scent again. The one that made her want to walk up to him and run her hands all over him.
She didn’t cave to scents though.
“What are you doing out here? Did someone upset you?”
“No. Of course not. I’m just taking some time to relax.” She smiled at him. “You came.”
She was so happy that he did.
He surprised her as he took another step toward her.
Suzy stayed perfectly still as he approached. Tilting her head back, she had no choice so she could look at him.
