By the time we made it back to Brooklyn, we were beyond exhausted. Disposing of bodies was hard work. When we returned to my parents’ house, we had to compel them to forget what they saw since we were covered in blood and dirt. I hated doing that to them, but it was a necessary evil.

“So let me get this straight,” Bash started. “You buried their bodies in the woods, where their bodies can be unearthed by animals and found by humans?”

My brows furrowed. “Well, I didn’t think about it like that. But now that you mention it, maybe we should contact the SIU …”

“You think?” Bash deadpanned.

“Listen, we were under duress. Did you not hear the part where a human put a bounty out on my head? A human!”

Bash laid on our bed and crossed his ankles, resting his hands on his stomach. “Yes, I heard you, Mackenzie.”

“Doesn’t that concern you? It concerns me. I don’t mind having supernatural enemies, but a human? What the hell did I do to them?”

“Humans don’t scare me. I’m almost positive the ones behind this are the vampires,” Bash said almost certainly.

“I don’t know, Bash …”

He shrugged. “Don’t be so quick to believe this man. He was on death’s door. He was probably spouting nonsense to save his own ass.”

I grinned. “I love it when you curse.”

“Mackenzie, stay on track.”

“Sorry,” I winced. “Anyway, tomorrow I’ll give the phone to Finn to trace when I go to work. Let’s see what we can get out of it.”

I finished drying my hair with a towel and threw on a t-shirt and some underwear and climbed into bed. I was completely drained after the day I had.

Bash turned on his side to face me. “Don’t think I’m not worried, Mackenzie, because I am. I worry about you every day.” He brushed a damp strand of hair away from my face.

“You know I worry about you too,” I murmured.

He quirked a brow. “Really? And why is that?”

“I have so many enemies. You’re an easy target.”

He grinned. “I can’t be captured that easily.”

I gave him a sly smile before I pounced, pushing him on his back and straddling him. I took his wrists and held them above his head. “I find it pretty easy,” I whispered.

He growled playfully before grabbing me around the waist and flipping me on my back as if I hadn’t just been pinning him down. “Only because I let you,” he taunted. I couldn’t help but laugh.

Bash brushed his finger over my lips. “Quiet, Mackenzie. Your father is just down the hall.”

I sighed. I forgot about Alexander. We didn’t want to get caught—again. And with wolves’ sensitive hearing, it would be way too apparent what we were up to. Damn wolf hearing.

I frowned playfully. “Fine, no play time. Just one little kiss.”
