Chapter 66


    Chapter 66


    Everything was going to sh it.


    All of the ns I had so carefully made, thought out for so long…ruined thanks to the stranger currently


    hiding in the


    bathroom.

    If he hadn’t pretended to be Roman and stirred up trouble first, I wouldn’t have been so nervous that


    my hands trembled. I was sure that was what had given me away. I’d been around wolf shifters long


    enough that I had learned to suppress many of my bodily reactions, their enhanced senses so good at


    picking up any little thing.


    What should I do now?


    Was Roman going to r ape me?


    As I was starting to panic, Roman’s phone vibrated and interrupted his hand’s leisurely crawl up my


    thigh.


    “Beta Starke, your phone is ringing. You should answer it in


    case it’s something important…”


    I took his momentary distraction as an opportunity to push


    Roman away and get off hisp.

    Luckily, he didn’t say anything and didn’t stop me, but the


    2/3


    look on his face told me that he wasn’t done with me, and he wasn’t worried about me getting away.


    He took out his phone and looked at it. When he saw the number on it, he quickly answered.


    His demeanorpletely changed. Gone was the cocky,


    rough wolf and in its ce was a formal, respectful tone.


    Who had called that would elicit such a drastic change in him?


    Never mind. I could use these moments to try to figure out my


    next move.


    Roman nced at the contract while speaking. “Is there a problem? Why didn’t I find it?”


    I couldn’t hear what the person on the other end was saying,


    only Roman’s responses.


    “Now?” After a pause, he added, “Okay, I’ll be right there.”


    No, no, no.


    If I didn’t carry out my n tonight, I’d be done for after the


    official Westen City project bidding meeting tomorrow!

    Before I could try to stop him from leaving, he picked up the contract, put his arms around my waist,


    and kissed me.


    “I have something urgent to deal with. Wait here for me.”


    Oh, this just might work.


    Since he hadn’t slept with me yet, he’d have more reason toe back.


    I could wait a little longer…Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
