Chapter 10 - Lottie

Mind still reeling from what had happened, Lottie laid upon her bed and stared at the ceiling. Even now she could still see Braxton's hurt face as she had admitted that she had not been the one to put her own name in the box. She thought on how quickly he had offered to go to Dash and call the entire thing off. What if all this time he had just been using her? What if he had only pretended to have feelings for her in order to get her to help him? Would he really go as far as marrying her just to get what he wanted? All of it made her sick. They were so caught up in a web of lies and conflicting control that Lottie felt as though she wasn't sure which way was up. She ought to have been happy. Any woman marrying the man she had feelings for should be happy, yet it was all tainted, overshadowed by how it had all come into being.

If she had not tried to help Braxton escape, this alliance might never have come into being. He would still likely be locked away in his cell, pleading to be allowed to see his children, and she would be a loveless she-wolf. But she would not be a traitor to her pack. and that was exactly how she felt as she lay there filled with longing.

Though on the face of things she would no longer be a traitor if she were to marry Braxton, she couldn’t imagine that her sister would ever speak to her again. Perhaps it was better if she didn’t marry him? How could she ever look her family in the face again if she were to marry a demon wolf?

She wished she had reacted differently in the woods that night. She wished she had allowed Braxton to take her in his arms. It would have been all too easy to melt into his embrace and allow herself to be caught up in the fact that they were to be married. Then what would her pack think? If she accepted him so willingly as her mate, it would not be long before one of her quick-witted packmates figured out it had been her to help him escape the first time.

She was so caught up in thoughts of all that had happened, seeing Ray's winking face all over again, that she barely heard the knock upon her bedroom door. The sound invaded her thoughts like an annoying bug buzzing about her head and she wanted to scream to be left alone.

Yet, she never got the chance.

It was only when the door burst open that Lottie remembered she hadn't locked it behind her. She sat bolt upright as her sister barged into the room. “What the hell are you playing at?”

“Me? What are you playing at? Barging in here like a bull in a china shop!” Lottie protested, hopping off the bed. “You can’t just let
