67. The Tool
~ JESSE ~
I gaped at him, my head screaming with protests. My chest roaring with anger. My whole body flinching with the unfairness of it all.
“You’re saying it’s my fault that I’m not pregnant? You haven’t touched me in two weeks.”
His eyes narrowed and the fierce disapproval on his face cut me like a blade, right through the middle. Those fucking tears rose without my permission, and my vision of him blurred.

~ CASIMIR ~“Where have you been?” I asked abruptly as the other wolves settled and stepped back to allow Jesse to greet me first as was our tradition. She was my mate. She had first right to my attentions. But she didn’t seem to realize it was an honor they bestowed upon her and she blinked nervously, glancing at them over her shoulder before turning back to me.“We were… playing hide and seek, I suppose.

~ CASIMIR ~The flash in her eyes sent a zing of power and desire through me so shockingly potent, my breath shuddered.I didn’t break eye contact. I had one hand planted on the wall over her shoulder, the other gripping her throat. There was a fleeting urge to curl my fingers into her flesh and tear out her throat—a flash of threat and fear. But then she swallowed and I felt it under my hand.With a low growl, I lifted the hand from her throat to trail a finger along her jaw, down the line of her elegant neck to her collarbone, then dipped my fingertips into the V between her breasts.“And if I said strip… right here?” I rasped.Jesse hesitated. Then to the delight of my wolf, she began unbuttoning the jeans she

~ JESSE ~I stumbled out of that room in a blind panic.For a moment there, I thought he’d given in. Surrendered. I’d had tears, it was so beautiful, so thrilling when he cupped his hand over my head and just held me. Those few seconds had touched a place within me his body could never reach. And I’d responded, unable to stop myself. I was hungry for him. Not just for his body, but for him. To be close. To be held. To be… together.When he’d dived into the bond and held me so gently, I thought

~ JESSE ~When I finally found the strength to raise my eyes and sit up, my legs were over Rake’s thighs where he sat with one of his thick arms on the back of the couch, the other elbow leaning on the couch arm behind me, and his face… his face was a picture of worried grief.I didn’t realize his hand was on my back until he moved it, catching my hair in his fingers and pulling it back over my shoulder as he sighed.“I’m so sorry, Jesse.”“Wh-what for?” I inhaled deeply, still trying to get control.“Because I saw this coming and didn’t stop it. I should have stopped it. I should have stepped in when h
