CHAPTER ELEVEN

~

“Okay, I want to go home,” Angelique tipped her chin up in defiance once more.

She’d take him at his word and stand her ground.

“Technically, this is your home now,” Luke offered back. That smile was back on his lips again.

“Are you trying to be annoying?” Angelique asked.

“I think it’s just a happy by-product of my nature,” Luke did grin that time. It was a slow to boil smile that stretched his lips and kept her spellbound until it was done.

Then she mentally slapped herself around the back of the head and snapped herself out of it. Damn, he had one heck of a sexy smile.

“Well.” She took one step toward the front door.

“You’re right! I forgot the alcohol,” Luke said and cut her intention to be going off at the pass.

It was a play for time, and she knew it. But she had asked, and he had offered, and it was alcohol.

“Well…” She started to search for a way out of it.

“And let’s not forget that someone is getting your car from where you left it, so you have a little time,” Luke lied.

He’d completely forgotten about her, but then so had she.

“I did not leave my car…”

“Right. Kidnapped by the Christmas fairy. How did you let that happen, again?”

“You know, I’ve been asking myself the exact same question. Fairies are just so…” She searched for the right word.

“Devious?”

“Yeah…”

“Mischievous?”

“Oh, yeah!”

“Like they’d sneaked out of the bathroom window when you weren’t looking?”

“I guess one drink couldn’t hurt — much.” She gave an awkward shrug, but that was all that the alpha needed to raise his arm and motion toward the sofa.

He’d got her there. They said witches were devious; she guessed nobody had met the alpha yet.

How did you make small talk with an alpha? Angelique guessed she was about to find out.
