"A challenge?" His own eyes flashed with anger. "I swear I had no idea he would do that. Trust me, I'll be having a serious conversation with him." I didn't answer immediately, still stating into those green eyes of his He didn't flinch or look away. His gaze was filled with sincerity and even a hint of worry. He wasn't lying. I believed him.
"That was really fucked up," I said, reiterating how hurt I felt.
"I agree." He placed a gentle kiss on my lips. "I'm truly sorry." My anger slowly dissipated. "What was the meeting with Viola about "Mostly discussing how all this is going to work. She used to be part of the Darkthorn Pack. She might know why they attacked your shop. You know what happened to her last night. That kind of thing happens there regularly."

"I didn't enjoy it, but I saved Viola... sort of." Ryder's expression hardened. "You have no idea how difficult it was forto watch that. I nearly broke his neck." "I would have enjoyed seeing that," I lifted my head and ran my tongue lightly across his lips.
"I quite enjoyed you bursting into my office and sitting directly on my lap," Ryder whispered in my ear, his tongue tracing the curve of my earlobe.
A warm current spread throughout my body, a feeling I both loved and hated. "Next time, I won't be so gentle," I promised, ifting my leg to press my knee firmly against his inner thigh.
"Next time, I'll fuck you without hesitation in front of anyone," Ryder smirked as he whispered, Ryder's tongue continued to lick my ear, causing my body to writhe involuntarily. "Hmm, sounds like a challenge, and you know how I handle challenges." 'Is that what you want? People watching as I push my cock inside you?" Ryder asked.
My face grew hot, but the words wouldn't stop flowing from my mouth. "I just don't think you'd actually do it. That would mean letting other people seenaked, and this outfit already pisses you off." Ryder's hand slid down my body until he grabbed the hem of my shi. He slipped his hand underneath, slowly beginning to explore upward. "Hmm, I could order them to look away." 1/2 Chapter 114 His touch sent electricity coursing through my body. I struggled to shy lucid, but my rationality was rapidly crumbling.

"They could hear that if you just kept the windows open," I was playing with fire, and I knew it.
"You're lucky Dad's calling us to his office right now. But tonight... the windows will be open. Ryder gavea serious look, lettingknow he meant business. "You'd better get changed quickly." He kissedhard again before getting off me. I felt an inexplicable anticipation. Tonight...
Trying not to let my voice betray how affected I was, I stood up and walked toward the closet. What should I wear... It's hot today, and I want to take a shower.

"No. Why? Changed your mind?" Ryder leaned against the doorframe.
"I want to work out, maybe check on my shop too. It's so hot today, I'm already sticky."
"Fine, let's go." Ryder shrugged and turned to leave. He held the door open for me. I had a sarcastic comment ready on the tip of my ent tongue, but I held it back as I passed him. Ryder raised an eyebrow, as if waiting forto say something, but when I didn't, he looked surprised.
Instead, I crossed my arms and walked slightly ahead of him.
When we reached the office, Ryder knocked once and pushed the door open. We were the last to arrivem Penelope, Viola, and Luna Kestrel were on the sofa at the far end. Viola sat stiffly, still very frightened. Penelope and Luna Kestrel were trying to comfort her. Logan, Leonard, William, and Alpha Benedict stood near the desk. To my displeasure, Martha sat in an armchair not far from the sofa.
