She mentally harrumphed at Keller.Damn man needed to leave her to her delusions.

So, telling you they were all jealous they weren’t the ones buried in your delicious cunt would be a bad thing?She could “hear” the smile in Madden’s voice.

This time, she growled.

The jerks laughed.

Double jerks.

Scarlet shuffled toward the center of the room, knowing without a doubt that her sisters would come hunting her.At least she could order room service before they sniffed her out like bloodhounds.

It took mere moments to secure food, a lot of food, and she snuggled into a comfy chair to wait.

Thankfully, breakfast arrived before Gabby and Whitney.Marginally before, but she still had five minutes with a cup of coffee.

Gabby’s yell reached her first, loud, but muffled.The elevator doors were still closed.Great.“You open these doors, or I’ll bite you!I may not have furball teeth, but I can still break skin!”

Damn, the woman had a set of lungs on her.

Scarlet glanced around the space and found a familiar guard.“Can you tell them to let my sisters in?They’re not going to kill me.At least, not without a lot of effort, and you can save me before things get bloody.”

The wolf grinned and left the room, presumably to do as she asked.When the yells got louder, she realized he’d followed through.Well, that was pretty cool.She got to tell people what to do, and theylistened.

She wondered if that’d work on Keller and Madden.

Not on your life.Keller’s mental voice held a growl.

Only if I get a blow job first.Ah, Madden, her practical man.

Stomps from the entryway grew louder, and her sisters burst into the room.

“Coffee?”Yeah, Gabby wasn’t a morning person without coffee.

“Breakfast.”Whitney shared her love of nummies.

“Ooh, Danishes.”Gabs eyed the apple-filled treats.

“And chocolate muffins.I love you.”Yeah, that was Whitney.She was a sucker for chocolate.

Gabby’s eyes drifted closed the moment her lips touched the mug.Scarlet smiled, sad this would be ending.No more morning munchies and getting together for no reason other than the fact that they were sisters.They probably wouldn’t live fifteen minutes from each other, like they were used to, when all was said and done.

Not for forever, sweet.We’ll figure things out.Keller’s voice held a hint of the sadness that inched into her heart.

I’m fine.She wasn’t, but she could pretend.

The Captain of the guard came into the room, giving her a jerky nod, and then he froze, hand going to his arm.

She furrowed her brow.“Captain?”Scarlet really needed to learn the man’s real name.She refused to wander around calling the wolf by his title for all eternity.

You will.

Scarlet mentally snorted.Not.

Brushing her mate’s grumbles aside, she returned her focus to the statue-like guard.“You okay?”The man’s eyes were glowing bright, edging closer and closer to pure yellow.“Captain?”

Real worry assaulted her, but then her mates entered, half-clothed, and rushed toward the Captain.A few low words were exchanged, and Keller and Madden lead him away.Every few steps, the agitated wolf looked back, seeming to strain against her mate’s hold.

Returning her attention to her sisters, she noticed Gabby’s focus was on the wolf while she rubbed her left bicep.“Gabs?”
