Clyde snorted. “That’s just it, I’m not even sure she wants to adjust. I know the boys are being hard on her but she seems to be avoiding me as well. The last thing she asked was about the evening hunt, but when I told her it was something all the pack males came together for, she clammed up. Hasn’t spoken a word since.”

Lex frowned, gazing over the numerous wolves preparing to head out into the forest. On any normal night, he would be at the head of the group, leading them towards their prey. However, when Clyde had asked him to stay and talk, he’d immediately agreed.

“So, you think she doesn’t want to be here?”

“That’s clear enough, she’s clashed with the boys, is scared of everyone outside the house and jumps whenever I enter the room.”

“So I assume you haven’t fucked her yet.”

Groaning, Clyde set his beer on the step next to him, covering his eyes with a calloused hand. The question cleaved deep, and not only because of the implications of not sealing the mating pact, but also because he was quite sure Angeline meant to drive him crazy.

He hadn’t even touched her. But Clyde didn’t need to. Just watching her sneak into the kitchen in the mornings in her wispy white nightgown, the near translucent cloth clinging to her skin, was enough to make him hard as a rock. He could hear the cadence of her breathing in the room down the hall from his every night, and when, for a moment, he allowed his mind to slip from his troubles, Angeline filled it.

What would it be like, he imagined, if she smiled for him? If she sought him out in the night, let him bring her into his bed and moaned as he worshipped her body? He didn’t think he’d wanted a woman so badly since he’d meant Leila in his adolescent years, and the raw desire left him feeling both torn and exhausted.

“She likes you.”

His head jerked up to see the Alpha eying him with a thin smile. “Not that I’ve seen much of you two together, but you should see the way she looks at you when she thinks you’re not paying attention. Trust me, brother, she’ll come around.”

But Clyde didn’t want to pin his hopes on a young woman who seemed to have every motive but actually wanting a mate. He couldn’t help but wonder if it wasn’t too late to call Madeline and tell her the match wasn’t working out. He certainly hadn’t defiled her daughter yet, so, technically, he could return her to Atlanta as if nothing had ever happened. Never having tasted her sweet mouth or touching the softness of her skin. Never hearing her laugh for him, or seeing her smile…

Sighing, Clyde took up his beer once more. “I hope you’re right, Lex.”

“I usually am.” The younger wolf quipped cockily. “That is why I’m the Alpha.”

Clyde simply rolled his eyes. “Yeah. That’s what you keep telling yourself.” Lex chuckled lowly for a moment before draining the rest of his beer in one gulp.
