him step around the front.
    “For your information , Alpha, I did not run last time I drove away!” she snapped.
    She could have sworn he laughed a little at her comment. As protocol and rank, Connor waited for Marcus to get in the driving seat before lifting his own precious bundle into the back seat. Luke went to get in next but stopped at a growl from Connor. Muttering an apology, he stepped back and let the Beta get in next to Lizzy. Brianna would have found the whole scene comical if she was not so bloody frustrated and horny as hell.
    The silence and tension was so thick you cut th rough it with a knife. Lizzy was passed out on the back seat with her head against Connor who had his arms around her shoulders and Luke was staring out the window, probably feeling like the third wheel. Looking across at Marcus she wondered what the hell he was thinking, her mind was upside down. Deciding to break the silence she turned in her seat.
    “How did you know where I was?”
    “Lucky guess” he replied, not once taking his eyes off the road.
    Suspicion clawed inside her. Turning to Luke she noticed he had found the colour of the night sky immensely interesting.
    “You told him?”
    “ Bri I had to, Murdoch was on the war path looking for you”
    “Why? What have I done now?”
    A chuckle came from the driving seat, her eyes flicked to Marcus and she let out a low growl. He flicked his eyes to her, the amber darkening by the second, his own rumble caused her to back down. Why, she did not know, any other wolf she would have stood her ground but he was powerful and her wolf just rolled over with her belly exposed.
    “Murdoch signed us up for the Buchanan case, we leave tomorrow”
    Shifting in her seat, she crossed her arms over her chest.
    “I have other duties, he will have to find another tracker”
    “You are the only tracker I need Baby and you are leaving with us tomorrow come hell or high water. I have already sorted it with Murdoch”
    “How?” she snapped
    “Persuasion”
    “Would that happen to be of the notes variety?”
    “Not entirely”
    Letting out a frustrated sigh she shifted in her seat, maybe the night sky was interesting after all, these clipped answers were driving her mad. Relief flooded her when the headquarters came into view, she was out of the car before he had stopped the engine. She could move fast when she wanted to and right now she was using that to her advantage. Racing into the accommodation block she smacked her hand against the scanner. Once inside she turned to see Marcus striding toward the door, Connor carrying Lizzy and Luke at the back. The sound of the electric door hissing shut was music to her ears. Spinning on her heel she ran up to her room on the third floor, opening the door with her keys. She wished in this case that it was a hand scanner but the old fashioned method would have to do. As soon as she was inside she locked the door, leaning against the wood to catch her breath. She was so screwed.
    Kicking off her sandals she glorified in the cool wood against her feet. Each step she took toward the living room was bliss, she never really got used to heels, the only reason she wore them was because it gave her height and made her legs look longer. Stepping into the bedroom she stripped off her clothes, the dress caught her nipples and she cried out at the sensation, she was so aroused. Damn him!
    Storming into the bathroom she turned the shower to cold. Bracing herself she jumped in quick, soaping her body and washing the make- up off her face. How the hell was she going to maintain a working relationship with him when he made her feel like this? Growling at her own thoughts, she dried herself off and grabbed her black satin robe. It was just as she was sitting down with a glass of water that she heard a knock at her door. Intuitively she sniffed the air and lo and behold her stomach clenched again. Fuck!
    Keeping her breathing calm and steady she sat very still, maybe he
