TWELVE

Titus

Robyn sat on my suitcase in those snug jeans, her legs crossed at the knee and dangling down the side of my unmade bed. The sight of her there, so close to where I wanted her, sent a spike through my pulse.

But she’d never been mine, and I no longer had the luxury of pretending otherwise.

I laid my clothes across the footboard, trying not to notice that she twisted to watch me, then I headed into my closet. “Do you honestly think I only own one suitcase?”

When I came out with a spare, she was sitting on my clothing, her legs now dangling against my footboard.

“I know you have more clothes,” Robyn said, looking up at me with her arms crossed beneath her breasts. “And more suitcases. And probably duplicates of everything you own. I can’t stop you from running out of here without keeping your promise. But I don’t think you’ll do that. A good Alpha keeps his word.”

“I’m not an Alpha anymore,” I pointed out as I eyed the wrinkles her shapely thigh was pressing into my favorite shirt. Wishing I was wearing it at that moment.

“You’re not their Alpha. But you’re still an Alpha. According to Abby, the position of ‘Alpha-as-leader’ isn’t the same as being an Alpha. Her brother Isaac is in charge of his Pride, but he’s not truly an Alpha yet. And Jace is an Alpha with no Pride to lead. That’s why you two keep butting heads. You’re like him now. A displaced Alpha. But a good one. You’ll keep your word.” Her mischievous smile stirred a heat deep inside me. “And in case I’m wrong about that, I’m fully prepared to obstruct you every step of the way until you start talking.”

I could see that she wasn’t bluffing. And I had given my word.

“Okay, but this is for your ears only, Robyn. You can’t tell Drew. You can’t even tell Abby. I need you to swear, and I need to know you mean it.”

“I swear.” Her smile faded into a look of concern. “What’s going on, Titus?”

I pulled her to her feet and hung my clothes over my desk chair, then sat in the chair. Robyn sank on the edge of the bed again, facing me, worry dipping her brows lower over her big blue eyes. I exhaled slowly. Then I met her gaze.

“You were right. I lied. The scent woven through Morris’s isn’t mine.” I could see the questions already forming on her tongue, but I pressed on before she could ask them, because once Robyn started talking, it was hard for anyone else to get a word in. “It’s my brother’s. The scents of same-sex full-blood siblings are very similar. Have you ever smelled Abby’s brothers?”

Robyn shook her head. “I’ve met Jace’s brothers, but at the time I was too preoccupied with the charges against me to notice what they smelled like.” She shrugged and dropped her gaze to the floor. “And that was before my mandatory training, so I wasn’t really tuned in to how much you can learn about a person from his scent.
