TV?”
    “Naked?”
    “Definitely naked. I’m not going to make love to you tonight, but I intend to make you come again before you have to leave.”
    “Are you sure you don’t want to?”
    “I don’t want to rush things along. It’s always better to savor something.”
    “I guess we’ll do it your way then.”
    After Riya rolled off him and stood, Capac took his pants and underwear off the rest of the way and left them in a pile on the floor after he toed off his shoes. He then picked up his mate and carried her to the bed. They’d watch some television, then he’d learn what really turned Riya on.

    Tanner stood in the night in an almost deserted parking lot inside the darkest shadows he’d created. He was downwind from the werewolf he’d followed from a bar after closing time. The one he stalked was from the local pack. Tanner had had some interaction with him before he’d been kicked out and forced to go lone wolf. So he knew he would make a nice addition to his pack of dark wolves. Tanner would just have to bring him over to the dark side first.
    Slipping from his hiding spot, Tanner came up behind the other man. He took hold of his shoulder and turned him around to face him. The werewolf snarled and pushed him away.
    “Tanner, what the hell do you want?”
    “That’s a nice way to greet someone from your pack, Greg.”
    “You are no longer part of it, and you know it. So drop the bullshit and get lost while you’re at it.”
    Tanner shook his head. “And here I am offering you a gift.”
    Greg scowled. “What are you talking about?”
    “What would you say if I could give you immortality? Make you stronger than you are now?”
    The other man snorted. “Yeah right. You can’t do any of those things.”
    “Yes, I can. I’m not the same as I once was.” Tanner conjured the dark shadows that had hidden him before and pulled them around him, making them swirl. “I’m something even better.”
    Greg eyed him with interest. “What would I have to do to get what you’re offering?”
    “All you have to do is join my dark wolves, accept me as your new pack leader. I can promise you there aren’t many rules. You just have to shift your alliances.”
    “That’s a big decision, changing packs.”
    “I can make it worth your while. I’ve heard how you wanted your brother’s mate as your own, and that you and he fought over her. You lost and your brother has cut you out of his life. Become a dark wolf and you can get back at him. We can steal his mate and you can keep her. I can turn her like you and she won’t care about your brother any longer. She’ll be more than happy to stay with you.”
    Greg licked his lips. “You’d help me get her?”
    Tanner smiled to himself. He had him now, not that it mattered if Greg said yes. Tanner was going to make him a dark wolf regardless. The other man had a cruel, selfish streak that he tried to keep under control. Tanner wanted to nurture it and bring it out into the open.
    “Yes,” Tanner said. “If you want her, I’ll make sure you get her.”
    Greg nodded. “All right, I’m in.”
    He smiled. “Good. Now to make you one of us.”
    Tanner launched himself at the other man, a dark, smoky mass enveloping him, as he shifted to his wolf form. With a growl, he clamped his strong jaws around where Greg’s shoulder and neck met, biting hard enough to break through skin. Blood filled his mouth, which he swallowed.
    Greg fell to the ground and bellowed in pain. Tanner shifted back to his human form in preparation to gather the man up and carry him over his shoulder. Ignoring Greg’s cries, he searched him until he found his keys. Tanner unlocked the car and dumped the newest member of his pack onto the backseat. He got into the driver’s side and drove away.
    Tanner glanced in the rearview mirror at Greg, who thrashed in pain. Tanner smiled. This would be the first of many. Brice, his former pack leader, would soon lose more of his pack
