Sophia Hope

There has never been a man more deluded than Alex Stone.

Carrying two bags of groceries in my hands, I stomp my feet on the ground as I make my way toward Rita’s house.

The nerve of him! How dare he? Who does he think he is, trying to interfere in my life? I have half a mind to pummel that gorgeous face of his into the ground.

I woke up to the black wolf curled around me—and my bed broken.

I don’t know when it broke, and I don’t know when he carried me there, or when he decided it would be a good idea to climb into the bed with me, but right now, he’s nursing a good headache from the way I screamed into his ear.

It’s chilly out today. I wish I’d had the presence of mind to bring my jacket, but I was so desperate to get out of the apartment that I only grabbed my wallet and keys.

I cannot understand this man. He says one thing, and he does another. If he’s adamant about staying at my place while he recovers, he should have the decency not to make it difficult on me. But he can’t seem to understand what boundaries are.

He broke my fucking bed! Does he have any idea how much beds cost? I was lucky to find that one secondhand! He’d better be ready to fork up the money for a new one.

My arms are aching as I carry the shopping bags up the lane. The anger stirring inside me is not exclusively due to what happened this morning. It’s about the events of last night. I found out Alex’s plan, and now knowing he’s looking for the Silver Wolf, I knew I had to be careful. I couldn’t tell him the Wily Vixen isn’t the person he’s looking for; I would have had to give up my secret identity. And I don’t trust him enough to do that.

Trust is a rare commodity.

I was so careful, waiting till everybody had left the arena before I made my escape. I was certain Patrick and his companions would have tired of waiting for me. But no. They chased me down, massive wolves gaining on me, their teeth flashing as if eager to bite me.

It was bad enough that the fighter I had faced in the cage had been a strong opponent. I am almost certain she was a shifter. Even when I used all my strength, she beat me up so badly that I lost the match. Mathew was pissed at me. He lost a lot of money, and I didn’t get paid.

If those bruises weren’t enough, Alex’s cronies made everything worse by chasing me when I was in such horrible condition. I ended up falling multiple times and hurting my arm. I had to break into the healer’s office and steal some of her potions. I was that desperate. And then, Alex had the nerve to look at me all innocent-like and ask who did this to me.
