Boyd laughed and exchanged an incredulous glance at Rob. “Wow.”
“Your what?” Marina demanded, hands on hips.
“Why didn’t you tell me who you were, little girl?” I tried to change the subject.
She lifted her chin. “I wasn’t sure if you had some rule against screwing little sisters.”
“Uh—” Rob began.
Audrey gasped.
Marina blushed. “I thought a one-night stand would sit better with you.”
“You think I usually fuck strangers in motel rooms?” I snarled, even though she had no idea why I actually brought her there.
“I’m sure you’ve done something like that before,” she countered.
“You knew who I was.” It dawned on me that she really had been the one doing the seducing. She might have been young and inexperienced, but she’d known what she was doing last night. Part of me was relieved that she wouldn’t have slept with a stranger, the other part was furious at being used.
For sex.
By my own mate.
My very human who didn’t know she was my mate.
“Guys—” Rob tried to cut in.
“You slept with me without even knowing my name,” she added.
“You slept with Colton?” Audrey asked, but neither of us looked her way.
“I told you last night it wasn’t necessary,” I said to Marina.
Crossing her arms over her chest, she added, “Total one-night stand move.”
“It’s not just one night. You’re—”
“Guys!” Rob said, stepping around the counter, so he stood between us. “She’s the trouble you ran into last night?”
Marina sputtered. “I’m trouble?”
“Little girl, you’re nothing but. Let me explain all the ways.” I stalked around the counter toward her, and Rob smartly moved out of my way. I didn’t slow, only bent down and tossed her over my shoulder. It felt good to have her in my arms. Fuck, did she push my buttons. But I was relieved to know where she was, that she was safe. Whole.
Now that I did, I could take care of her. Smack her cute ass for putting me through that shit. Satisfy her. And soon, I would tell her she’s my mate. Explain it all.
It would be easier for her to swallow than I feared last night, since her sister had already been marked and brought into the pack.
As I left the kitchen and went up the back stairs, I called out, “I’m stealing your little sister, Audrey. I’ll take good care of her, though. I promise. Take care of that cake, will you?”
I heard smothered laughter from the group.
“You upset my future little sister, I’m gonna have to kill you!” Boyd called after me, but there was a chortle in his voice, too.

MARINA

“Colton!” I kicked my legs as my giant sexy Green Beret carried me up the stairs and down a hall. “What are you doing?”
“You thought I’d have a problem with screwing little sisters, huh?” A heavy palm fell on my ass, and I squealed.
“Ow!”
“Little girl, I’m gonna smack that ass until it’s rosy. Last night was not a one-night stand for me. And I did not appreciate you running off.”
My heartbeat kicked up in speed, but I wasn’t afraid. I never expected this level of reaction from him, and frankly, it thrilled me. I’d made it easy for him. Gave him an out. I’d thought it might be a little awkward when he found me here. Thought we’d keep it our secret, and he might chew me out in private later for tricking him into sex with a person he thought was a stranger. With a person who he might consider too young for him. Or off-limits.
But this? This was freaking exciting. He hadn’t been ashamed about what we’d done. He’d admitted it in front of everyone. Very loudly. Very clearly. Now he wanted me alone in, I assumed, his room. I was in dangerous territory here because he was only here for a week. He might want more from me sexually, but he’d be gone before the leftover wedding cake was even finished.
He kicked open a door, stepped in and shut it behind us. The second he dropped my feet to the floor, he tugged my t-shirt off over my head. My nipples pebbled up, eager for his attention.
Mmm. Yes, please. I’d take more of Colton Wolf’s attention any day.
I looked around. Definitely his bedroom. The walls were tan but had posters on them. A shelf over a desk in the corner had trophies.
He sat on his bed and pulled me between his knees, his hands stroking up and down my hips, squeezing my ass. It was like he couldn’t get enough of me, an intoxicating feeling. Since I never wore a bra, I was bare from the waist up. My nipples were hard from being exposed to the cool air. Who was I kidding? They got hard over his caveman behavior.
“S-so you don’t have a problem with screwing little sisters?” My voice came out breathless and small.
