Chapter 21

Lillian wondered how long she would have to wait before the tabloids got bored and left her alone. Sadly, in her experience, that could take days. She closed her eyes and tried to ignore the buzz of chatter outside and the repeated attempts to get her to open the door. She thought back to her weird dream, where Yummy-Jake had been talking about werewolves. She needed to make another appointment with her therapist—her imagination was running wild. She frowned as she tried to recall what had happened. There had been the most beautiful rainbow of colors shimmering in front of her, and then Jake had transformed into Wolfie-the-dog. Bizarre didn’t begin to describe it.

She couldn’t sit on the floor much longer; she needed a drink. As she prepared to crawl to the kitchen, to avoid being seen through the windows, she heard a familiar trilling sound. Her cell phone. She must have a signal!

To her disgust, the eleven messages that awaited her were all from the press. Guess what else Kurt had given them? Her private number. Right now, killing him wasn’t going to be enough to satisfy her desire for revenge. She made a rapid call to her security team and then switched off the phone. Her private guards would be here within the hour. Time to shower, dress, and get the hell out of Dodge. She just hoped that Wolfie showed up before she had to leave.

Jake raced back to Lupus Cottage, his mind fixed on his Mate. He still hadn’t figured out how to tell her, but maybe if he turned up in human form she might listen to him. It had to be worth a try. He didn’t expect to find the small parking area full of cars and people. He parked next to the road and walked up on silent feet, listening to snatches of conversation as he passed the huddled groups.

“Eight firemen, apparently. She banged them all in turn.”

“Kurt Anderson has taken out a restraining order on her. Says she is mentally unbalanced.” Jake growled at that, furious when he realized they were all journalists. Surely having an affair with the Asshole didn’t explain this level of interest from the media? There was even a local TV crew parked and waiting. Jake stuck to the shadows and crept closer.

One guy was leaving her a voice message. “Ella, this is Jason Stanford from Four-News. We just want a few minutes of your time to talk about the rumor that you’re quitting the business.” He sounded as smarmy as a secondhand car salesman. “We’re planning a biography of your career and I’m sure you would prefer to have some input. Call me back at this number.”

The reporter ended the call and grinned at the young man by his side. “She’ll come running, believe me, especially when I call her back to say that Kurt Anderson has already agreed to take part. You have to admire the way he’s making the most of this publicity.
