Waking in the late morning, I really did not want to deal with any of the guys. Who I am sure are just waiting in the living room for me. Seeing as I don’t have wings and therefore cannot simply escape out the window, I’m left hiding out in my room. So be it, this isn’t the first time I’ve done this.

Relaxation sounds like a perfect plan at the moment and I know just how to do that. Grinning to myself I climb to the back of my closet where I have hidden away a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon. Standing there holding the bottle of wine, I stare at it. I walk out to the main part of my room with the unopened bottle still in hand. Stopping next to my bed, I close my eyes. “I shouldn’t do this, I know that. But I could really use the break right now.”

No. No hiding. My wolf chimes in.

“Drink it,” a voice commands from the door.

“Fucking hell!” Startled, my heart beats like a drum behind my ribs.

“Well, what are you waiting for? If you’re so weak that you need to hide at the bottom of a bottle, then drink the damn thing.” Enzo’s face is stock and stone cold as he stands there watching my every move.

“Don’t you dare judge me, Enzo. It’s been a shit few years but the last 24 hours have been fucking hell on earth.”

“Not judging, Riley. But you went through true hell to get clean, so I’m giving you a choice. You can hide in the bottom of that bottle there or you can fucking alpha-up and handle your shit. Be the badass ballbuster I heard you were.”

An image of Cree on his knees holding his family jewels flashes through my mind courtesy of my wolf. Reminding me of the first time we took down the bear. I can’t help but smile at that memory, fun times. Walking over to Enzo, I hand him the bottle. “You’re right. I am a fucking alpha and it’s time I got back to that.”

He grabs the back of my neck and pulls me to him, staring me in the eyes before he crashes his lips to mine. The kiss quickly deepens, becoming a push and pull for dominance. I gently slide my hands into his hair, fisting it, I pull his head back, roughly breaking the kiss. “If you ever fucking lie to me, or manipulate me again, Enzo. ” Leaning into his body, I place my lips next to his ear and whisper, “I’ll fucking knee you in the balls next.” I push him back into the wall and exit the room with an extra sway in my hips and a smirk on my face. Off to find my other mates and set them straight. His bark of laughter follows me down the hall, all the way to the living room.

“Since when does Enzo laugh?” I hear Wild remark.

“Since I promised to knee him in the balls if he ever lies to or tries to manipulate me again.
