comes,” Regine said.
    “If you move into the compound, the women would he happier.”
    “So the only reason you want me here is because of them?” She wondered if her skill as a nurse was all he cared about.
    Nathan boxed her in against the counter and pulled down her shirt to expose the mark. It healed overnight but the mating scar remained. With him being that close Regine felt the urge to claim him in the same fashion. But she controlled herself.
    “I would think me claiming you last night would be reason enough.” He bent his head and slid his tongue over the mark. Regine’s nipples hardened instantly. The edge of Nathan’s nose tickled her neck. “The real question is why did you reject my claim?”
    Regine’s eyes were slowly closing at his touch. She was grateful he didn’t use his hands like he did last night.
    “I don’t date Alphas, Nathan.”
    His touch was gone but he remained close.
    “Give me a reason. Aside from me threatening you when we first met. Keep in mind I know you want me.”
    She rolled her eyes and almost laughed but then he pressed his raging hard on against her. Even trapped behind his loose jeans, it was impressive. “I can say the same about you.”
    “I don’t date Alphas because they tend to take their frustrations out on others. Like most Alphas, you’re arrogant and mistake your aggression for dominance. You only give orders to others. And worst of all Nathan, you feel women here have to impress you, not the other way around.”
    “Those Regine, are my good qualities as Alpha of this pack. And the only woman whose attention I hunger for is the one who ignores me the most. Kind of ironic, isn’t it?” Nathan lifted her onto the counter so they were at eye level.
    Regine tried to find a rebuttal for his statement and came up with nothing. She was having too much fun. Wrapping her legs around Nathan’s waist she had his full attention.
    “When we first met at the creek did you want to kill me?”
    Nathan brought her closer and whispered. “I wanted to do this.” He kissed her.
    Regine closed her eyes the moment Nathan’s lips touched hers. Deepening the kiss, Nathan’s tongue slid into her mouth and she moaned quietly. With a slight nudge she laid back against the counter. His hands moved to grab the edge of her pants.
    “Regine… Oh!” she heard Bryce shout from the entrance of the kitchen.
    Hearing her name, she rose to a sitting position. Nathan’s touch disappeared. She missed it immediately but didn’t miss the smirk on Bryce’s face.
    “What’s up, Bryce?” she asked, covering her face in amused embarrassment. Regine’s eyes floated over to Nathan. He didn’t say a word but his frustration was apparent from his low growls.
    “There’s a woman at the front gate looking for you. She said her name is Elyse.”
    “I’ll be right there.” She took her eyes off Bryce’s retreating back and focused on Nathan. Regine wanted to say something. Anything…but nothing came to mind. She slid off the counter and started to walk off. A firm hand dropped onto her shoulder.
    “This is far from over, Regine.” Nathan pulled her into a mind-blowing kiss.
    She went to move away but he once again pulled her closer. “I hope you’re ready for the challenge I issue.”
    He walked off, leaving Regine wanting more of him than she had before. She stood there attempting to process what just happened. Did they almost make love in the kitchen? Don’t act like you didn’t want to, her mind screamed. His lips left a burning trail of desire throughout her body, leaving no question as to who Nathan wanted.
    Walking to the front she saw Elyse waiting patiently for her. Even from a distance the poor woman was a pile of nerves. Regine smiled and gave her a hug. “Is everything okay?”
    “Well, I’m…” Elyse looked around and saw everyone watching. “Can we talk in private?”
    Elyse’s hair was a little ruffled and her maternity dress was wrinkled. From her slightly
