Chapter Ten

Her head was pounding, and she was not in Kansas anymore. She recognized the room she was in, at least. Always a silver lining, Kalinda. Just focus on that. But she was really over waking up like this. Granted, this time she had much more pleasant company to look at, but she was pissed.

No. Pissed was an understatement.

Wrathful? Oh, that was good.

Seething? That might be a bit better.

Explosive? Got it in one!

Romano must have sensed it because his nostrils flared out, scenting the air, and grew still. “Kalinda …”

“My neck hurts, Romano. Care to tell me what that means?”

She knew, of course. She remembered how Zoey said she’d felt after she’d been bitten and favored her backside, of all places, for quite some time. And she’d had the no-shift potion within a short period to make sure she didn’t turn wolfy. Kalinda had provided it at great expense to help her friend, of course, and now she found herself in the same predicament.

The fact she was in his bedroom without the potion already … in … her … hand told her she may have more than a little to deal with.

Romano sighed before rubbing his hand down his face. “You already know.”

Nope. Not going to run from this. Not even a little bit. She was done taking everyone else’s shit. She didn’t choose any of this, and no one cared about her choice at every step.

“You mated me.”

He nodded, and that sent her flying off the ledge directly into the deep end of molten lava. Everything burned. Acrid air met her nose, and heat pulsed off her scalp. Kalinda’s skin was tight, pulling until it itched, and she clenched her teeth.

Yeah, he was sooooo dead.

“Did you even once think of how I’d feel?”

Romano ran rough hands through his hair, dislodging the dark strands across his forehead. “It’s all I thought about, Kalinda. Did I know you’d be angry?” She snorted. “Yes. Did I know I’d have a mate who wasn’t any more interested in being in my bed than having a root canal? Yeah, I knew that too. And I still did it to save her life.”

Okay, to be fair, she didn’t know what had happened when she was out in the crazy sphere, but still …

“Was there no other way? I mean, come on, how long have you been angling to get me in bed?”

Romano’s eyes flashed and he seemed, she couldn’t quite put a word to it … bigger? His shoulders were thrust back, his jaw jutted furiously, and his fists clenched at his side.

“If all I wanted was you in bed, I would have said so. If all I wanted was to make you come so many times you couldn’t see straight and couldn’t think unless it was about me, or for you to carry the taste of my possession for the rest of your life, I would have said that too.”

Well. Damn. No, she wasn’t going to let him change this around.

“You know what I mean.
