a nice thing to say to Lennox. I think I
could count on one hand how many times I've seen him smile or
laugh."
    "Why does he want
me? He should already be mated by now."
    "He doesn't like
the reaction he gets from the other females. He's convinced they
only want one thing and that's position in the pack. I don't know
why he chose you. You'll have to ask him."
    "Was he hurt
before?"
    He looks at me
like I'm stupid. "No, he's never been hurt. He's just really good
at reading people."
    I don't say
anything else. I just get lost in my thoughts about Lennox, he
really is attractive. I think if he ever smiled I might have more
of a reaction to him but I've never even seen him smirk. He's
unreadable and that's what frightening. I never know what he's
thinking.
    We pull up to
Lennox's house and I get out of the truck and I realize I left
everything back at the lake, I blush. "I'm not really dressed to go
talk to the Alpha."
    He smiles and
chuckles. "He'll love it. Plus, it will soften him up a
bit."
    "Yeah, right." I
mutter, following him into the house. "Hey, what's your first
name?"
    "Liam." He
answers and knocks on a set of double doors before he peaks his
head in. "I have your package. I even wrapped it." I hear him say
and I scoff. What a jackass.
    He turns back to
me and nods for me to go in. I stick my tongue out at him and walk
in. The door closes behind me and I jump. I keep my head
down.

    I keep my
head down, I walk forward a couple steps and I can feel myself
shaking. It's not just me I'm worried about. What if he thinks Tom
was something more to me? Or blames Marta?
    "Closer."
I hear him say and I start crying.
    "I'm
sorry." I cry into my hands. The fact that I'm going to start my
period in a few days isn't helping my emotional stability right
now.
    I feel
arms go around me lifting me up and cupping my bottom. My legs are
around his torso as he carries me. He sits down in his desk chair
and I straddle his lap. His fingers gently caress my back. I look
up at him feeling stupid for crying. I hiccup. "Why are you being
nice? I thought you were mad."
    "I am
mad. What were you thinking?"
    I look
down at my hands. "I didn't want to be left out. I didn't think it
was going to be a big deal."
    "You
should have never left with a man by yourself."
    "I know
that now. I didn't think anything of it before. I didn't even know
him." I reply truthfully. "It was just a ride."
    "Don't do
it again." He replies seriously. There's a knock on the door and I
smell chocolate.
    "Is that
chocolate?" I ask, practically drooling.
    "Come in,
Wendy." He says. Lennox is facing the door and I'm still facing him
on his lap. I look over my shoulder to see a tall blonde woman with
long curly hair come in with a big smile and brownies. Her smile
drops when she sees me. I must look like a mess, I wipe at my tear
stained face. She steps closer and I notice she's pretty with deep
brown eyes and a perfect figure. She isn't dressed scantily; she's
wearing a designer dress with wedge heels. She looks
classy.
    "Alpha, I
made brownies for you." She says sweetly putting them on the desk.
She stands in front of us not moving. I start to turn to get off
his lap, feeling inappropriate but his hands stop my hips from
moving. "At least let me turn and introduce myself." I
mutter.
    He turns
me in his lap until I'm facing Wendy. "Hi, I'm Jocelyn." I lean
forward as far as I can without standing up because Lennox's hands
are holding me down.
    She takes
my hand and shakes it. "I'm Wendy."
    "I really
like your outfit."
    "Thanks."
She replies tersely. "I like your bathing suit."
    I feel
Lennox's thumbs pulling down the material of my suit bottoms and
without thinking I turn to the side and smack his hands. He keeps
his head down but looks up smiling. I suck in a breath. His smile
is like getting hit in the stomach, unexpected and painful. He's
the most beautiful man I've ever seen. His smile fades and he turns
tense.
    "Thank
you. You can
