Chapter 10 Brooklyn I jump to my feet, blushing and heading for the door. pors I reach it, Davis comes back in. Whoa whoa whoa!" he says, putting up hands to stop me. I shrink in front of him. "Where you going, baby?" He rubs a hand up and down myarm. Instinctively, I jerk my arm away from him. Davis keeps moving towards me, but for every step he takes, I take one backwards. Soon, I feel myself bump into a table behind me. He presses up against me. There's nowhere else to go. His stink invades my nose, and I swallow down a gag. Right now, I almost wish I were human so the smell of his body odor wouldn't affect me so much. "You'd better be a good girl for me," Davis whispers, his hot breath on my face. "Or else your sister's gonna pay. She owes me a lot of money. Tonight, you're going to work some of it off." I'm scared to death, a little whimper escaping my mouth. What does he even mean, that I'm going to work some off? Dammit, why does shifting have to be forbidden around non-wolves? If I do it to slash this pudgy fuck's stomach, I risk being banished, losing my job, my license to work with humans… I'm starting to see how some humans are able to use and manipulate supernaturals. He holds all the power right now, even though I'm at least three times stronger than him. My body is frozen, and even though there are other people in here, will any of them even pay attention to what happens to me? They're all very…invested in their current activities. "Do you mind?" The voice drawls from behind Davis. "That's my doctor you're harassing there." I feel Davis's weight lift off me as he turns towards the voice. I peer behind him, shocked. I recognize that deep, chocolate tone, and it sends a rush of heat straight between my legs. It can't be… But there, behind him, stands the Werewolf Mafia King, hist hands casually in his pockets. "We weren't quiet finished with our sessions," Kenwood says. "So would you mind getting the fuck off her?" "Okay, boss," Davis says, putting up his hands. "I didn't know." Kenwood flicks his chin at him, telling him to get lost. Davis gives me a dirty look as he goes. Gods, what is wrong with me? At the sight of this dangerous, dangerous man looking at me. with hunger in his eyes… Heat furls in my belly, and I'm even wetter between my thighs. Inwardly, I groan, mortified. There's no way a powerful wolf like him can't smell my arousal. I stand still, letting him stare at me, wanting him to- My eyes fly wide as I realize the direction of my thoughts. Want him to what? To force me, here in the strip club where my sister works? Is this seriously how I want to lose my virginity?! I gasp at the thought of it, my emotions flying back and forth. between fear and desire, fear winning out in the end. My hand flies to my chest, tucking under my bra, grabbing my mother's switchblade. Shifting might be forbidden, but weapons aren't. I yank it down to my side, my hand trembling as I flick it open. Then, steeling myself, I scream as loud as I can and whip my hand up, aiming the blade directly for the side of Kenwood's neck.
