Curiosity was always my downfall. This time, though, there would be no downfall.

Not for me.

I had too many strikes against me to add more to my list.

Wolf may be coming here, but I wouldn’t be here when he did.

There had to be a reason Travis and Dante didn’t like The Uncertain Saints, and I was going to make sure to keep my distance. I owed Wolf a great deal, but there was only so much shame that a woman could face, and I’d faced more than I wanted to.

“Alright,” I said, standing and dropping the papers to the desktop. “I’m going to go have lunch and catch up on my reading since y’all are having meetings. If y’all need anything let me know.”

With my back to the door and my eyes to Travis, whom I could see in his office, I knew Dante, who I couldn’t see but I’d bet was watching me on the monitor like he always did. I backed away.

I’d nearly made it all the way to the door, too, when I bumped into something solid.

Something solid that shouldn’t be there.

“What in the hell are you doing here with them?” a familiar voice asked from behind me.

I closed my eyes as Dante came out of his office, clearly not happy with the way Wolf’s arms were around me.

“Let go of her. Now,” Dante ordered, eyes hot.

My eyes widened and I tried to step out of Wolf’s embrace, but I couldn’t make my feet move.

My body, unlike my mind, liked where it was.

In fact, it liked it so much that I leaned back slightly before realizing just exactly what it was that I was doing.

Then I rocketed forward, waved at Dante and Wolf, and ran out of the room.

I took the stairs that led down to the street at a near run.

The man at my back, however, was twice as fast as me, landing at the bottom in time to catch me before I could go all the way out the door and to freedom.

“Oomph,” I hit Wolf’s body so hard that I lost my footing and would’ve gone down to my knees.

Wolf’s arms kept me up as he pulled me into his chest and wrapped both arms so tightly around me that I could barely catch my breath.

“What. Are. You. Doing. Here?” he asked, looking down at me with those intense eyes of his.

“I’m living,” I said stupidly.

His eyes, which were so focused on me that I could see every single striation in his iris, warmed.

“My sister hasn’t been able to get a hold of you for weeks now,” he said. “Why are you hurting her like that?”

I bit my lip.

How did I tell him that his sister, the woman that had been kidnapped right along with me, brought back bad memories that I was trying to keep buried?

You didn’t. You lied.

Which was what I tried to do, but his eyes told me clearly that he didn’t believe a word that came out of my mouth.

“I’m really busy,” I replied lamely.

“You’re really not. Not if you’re Travis and Dante’s receptionist,” he challenged.

My mouth fell open in affront. “Are you telling me that I’m lazy?”

His brows furrowed in confusion. “How, exactly, did you get lazy out of what I said?”

I ran my tongue over my teeth, thinking through what I would say next.

“How’s Hannah?” I asked.

“Crushing on some man that she saw,” he murmured. “Would you like me to tell her you inquired about her?”

My mouth dropped open.

“You’re…you allow her to do that?” I asked.

He blinked.

“I allow her to do whatever she wants. She’s a grown ass woman,” he replied. “You’re stalling.”

I was.

Still, he didn’t need to have his suspicions confirmed.

Before I could find something else to deter his attention, Dante and Travis appeared on the landing above us.

Travis locked the door as Dante continued down the stairs, his eyes on me. In Wolf’s arms.

Why was I still in Wolf’s arms?

I pulled away as if he’d burned me, tripping over myself once again so he had to catch me.

Jesus, I was such a klutz.

Dante’s eyes narrowed on me, and I had the sinking feeling that he was assessing everything I did, and he didn’t like what he was finding out.

Moving away from Wolf once again, I picked up the purse I hadn’t realized I’d dropped, pulled the strap over my head, and pushed my way past him towards my car.

I’d just placed my foot onto the smooth concrete right outside when a loud pop sounded.

It wasn’t a normal sound. It was just a sound. One that didn’t affect me in the least.

My eyes swung to the side where I saw Wolf’s shiny black bike leaning to one side against the curb, and then to the left to see Dante’s white Tahoe, and Travis’ black Mustang, only to stop when I saw someone leaning on my car.
