Urgh. Who gave a shit? “Because he’s half human? Or because the anchor is choosing him over all the purebreds?” I tipped my head to the side. “Maybe it’s time they pulled their pompous heads out of their asses and gave him a chance to reach his full potential.”
“You really believe in him?” Sloane was studying me with an unreadable expression.
“I believe that he’ll put his ass on the line for me without a second thought, and I believe he’ll fight dirty to win. I believe he deserves a shot.”
Anna sighed. “From what I hear he did test highly in the gargoyle trials. His progress has been suppressed because of his heritage. He’s been punished because of it. I agree with you. He deserves a shot, but the others won’t be happy about this.”
I grinned at her. “And that’s where your mojo comes in.”
She bit back a smile. “Very well. I’ll speak to Bador and contact you to let you know the outcome.”
“We patrol tonight,” Sloane said.
Tor looked worried. “So do the tri-packs. Varga activity has increased over the past few weeks. They’re splitting up and entering our territories at several points at the same time.” He frowned at Anna. “Just to be clear, no Lauris means no anchor on patrol.”
Sloane pressed her lips together. “Missing a patrol isn’t an option. The Order will know we’re down an Elite, which means chances of revenant activity are higher than usual right now.” She locked gazes with Tor. “Worst-case scenario, I’ll keep her safe. I give you my word.”
Tor’s jaw flexed, and for a moment I thought he’d tell her to piss off, but then he nodded. “Fine. I’ll hold you to that. Now if you’re done monopolizing my mate, we have some business of our own to discuss.”
And why did I get the impression I was in for a verbal dressing down?
He strode toward the exit, morphing into wolf form as he reached the door, then turned to look at me with his huge dark head and piercing gray eyes.
Come on, you can ride me.
His voice was a delicious rumble in my head and his words went straight to the apex of my thighs.
He chuffed.Dirty girl.
Yeah, I was. I so fucking was.
