Chapter Eight

Two days passed much more rapidly than Jess could have predicted. She expected Rafe to let her wander and leave her alone except for when he wanted to question her. But the questions didn’t come. His attention did. It seemed that he was by her side every moment that he could spare.

Those moments were not as numerous as part of her would have liked. That was the part of her that kept forgetting she was a prisoner in his house.

After showing her his hideaway, he left. But later that day he found her exploring the library and pulled her into the castle’s garden to show her the centerpiece of it all: a natural spring that looked like it should have had fairies flitting about. At the very least there should have been some sort of wish granting mechanism.

He hadn’t kissed her again. Which was a good thing. And if she kept repeating that thought she might start to believe it.

When she returned from one of her walks around the castle on the day of the party, a magnificent dress was waiting for her, hanging in plastic off the closet door. The emerald green gown hung all the way down to the floor and would go over just one of her shoulders, there was silver beading that covered the waist, meant to emphasize her curves. She crossed the room and grabbed the gown off the door. The beading wasn’t made of sequins or plastic, it was made of actual crystals.

She’d never worn something so expensive. And now she knew why Rafe hadn’t let her see the dress beforehand. She’d asked about it, but he just smiled and changed the subject. His own evasiveness had led her to believe he’d give her some packmate’s castoff.

Not something like this.

A large box sat on the table by the couch. A card was propped up with her name on it. Still holding the dress, Jess sat on the couch and picked up the card.

I’ve wanted to see you in this dress for days. The color was made for you. I hope you’ll wear the complete outfit.

It was deliberately not a command, Jess understood. But what he was truly asking, she did not know.

She opened up the box and smiled when she saw the black panties. Of course, the man would want to choose her very own underwear. The perv. But her eyes were drawn to something else. Two shiny, platinum bracelets, each two inches wide. They would play off the light and match the crystal banding perfectly. More crystals traced the edges of the bracelets, outlining them in shining studs.

This wasn’t the kind of jewelry a man had just lying around. He’d purchased this, and the dress, specifically for her.

It took Jess’s breath away. Wearing it would mean something to him, to her. Something about them. And if she did that, there was no going back. Something about the night would change and she would no longer be just his hostage. Except she knew she was already more than that.
