I know my full title, a rank or more above his, pisses him off. His lip twitching tells me it works.

“Just call him Marshall.” Trina rolls her eyes at me.

“You didn’t tell me your friends were military.” Roger glances around the room.

Trina shrugs, avoiding my gaze. “Former. Mostly. I’ve just met most of them.”

You were alsojustin my bed with my cock inside you. But semantics.

Roger rocks back on his heels. “Yeah? Well, I’ll get some glasses for us.” He holds up the bottle of wine and heads to the kitchen.

Not before shooting me a wink.

That fucking prick.

“Little wolf.” I take a step closer and Trina steps away.

“What?”

“You didn’t reply to my message,” I say roughly. “We need to talk. And other things.”

“Marshall.” She holds up a hand. “I told you where we stood. I’m... I’m here with Roger tonight.”

Her words are like an arrow stabbing me in the heart and I’m almost breathless.

Trina isdatingRoger Miller?

The fuck you are,is on the tip of my tongue, but I don’t say it out loud.

My fist clenches, and body heat rises about ten degrees as a feeling I’ve never felt before comes over me. I’ve killed for my country but never wanted to commit murder because I hate someone.

Knowing this asshole could have slept with Trina. Had his hands, his mouth, on her. His dick in her, makes me almost lose my mind.

It’s only been a few days since she was arching as I filled her with my thick hard shaft. Either this is new, or she’s known him of a while.

“That quick huh?” My voice is low and dark.

Trina’s fingers tug at the material of her dress, then emotion-filled eyes lift to mine. “Like you said, I’ve done a few mornings after.”

We hold one another’s gaze while I remind myself kidnapping is illegal.

Then she swallows and walks off leaving me standing there with smoke pouring out my fucking ears.

TRINA

My plan is working. Marshall is keeping away. And by keeping away I mean leaning up against the wall across the room and staring daggers at me.

Actually, both of us.

I felt guilty when I saw his reaction. I’ve met some alpha males in my time, but Marshall looked ready to kill.

I’m seeing Roger at the moment.

Talk about stretching the truth.
