he’d lift the hem of that short dress, exposing that exquisite tiger and,
hopefully, getting a glimpse of heaven while he was there. Briefly, he wondered
what color panties she was wearing. He could already tell she wasn’t wearing a
bra, which made his mouth water, just imagining getting his tongue on her perky
breasts.
    She seemed uncertain as he
watched her, but she hesitantly took a step toward him. As the skirt of her
dress caressed her, he realized something. No panty lines. Cain stifled a groan
and wondered how the hell he was supposed to survive this dinner. The whole
time he was eating, he’d be thinking of laying her out on the table and
munching on something way better than pizza and beer. He’d bet she tasted
sweet. Just how many men had sampled the sweet nectar he could smell gathering
between her legs? It was enough to make him growl, thinking of other men
touching her soft skin, making love to her sweet body.
    Allie sank into the chair across
from him. She bit her lip, drawing his attention to her plump, ripe lips. He
reached across the table and smoothed his thumb over her lower lip, pulling it
away from her teeth. Her eyes widened and he saw the pulse in her throat jump.
So, she was just as affected by his touch as he was of being in the same room
with her. Good to know. He’d have to file that tidbit away for later. Right
now, he needed to make sure she ate.
    “I heard someone mention that you
liked supreme pizza,” he said.
    “I do.” Her voice was low and
husky. It wrapped around his cock and Cain shifted in his seat, trying to
relieve the pressure behind his zipper.
    “Eat up. There’s plenty. Keep
whatever we don’t eat and have it for lunch tomorrow.”
    “You don’t have to feed me you
know. I’m perfectly capable of making my own dinner.”
    He lifted an eyebrow. “Really?
Because as I was getting plates and pulling our drinks from your fridge, I
noticed that it seemed rather bare. I think your cabinets have some noodles and
a box of pancake mix in them, and nothing else.”
    A flush spread across her cheeks.
“I just haven’t been to the store yet. I had planned to go tonight after work.”
    “Before I cost you your job.”
    She nodded.
    “I’d apologize but, honestly, I
didn’t like you working there. What if that asshole had waited for you to get
off work and had followed you to your car? You might be a wolf but, in human
form, you wouldn’t have been able to take a guy like that in a fight. He could
have done anything he wanted to you and you know, in that part of town, no one
would have paid attention to your screams.”
    She visibly shivered.
    “Connor said you were applying at
the strip joint today.”
    She shrugged a shoulder. “I
couldn’t go through with it. I saw a man sliding his hands up a woman’s leg,
stuffing money in her G-string, and I realized there was no way in hell I could
let men like that touch me.”
    He had to admit, he was relieved.
He hadn’t had a chance to call the place this morning and he’d worried all day
that they’d hired her. After seeing her leave Connor’s office, he’d tried to
talk to the alpha, find out why she’d been there. Connor hadn’t said a word
though, just smirked at him.
    “So what are you going to do?” he
asked.
    “Connor is making a spot for me.
I’ll be sort of a manager for the apartments and wolf dorms. If someone has a
problem, they’ll call me. If we have new blood join the pack, I’ll show them
where they’ll be staying.”
    Cain frowned. “We don’t exactly
have a lot of traffic coming through here right now.”
    “Connor said it would probably be
part-time starting out. But he did offer me a rent free apartment with the job.
Depending on what he pays me, I may have to find a part-time job to help pay
the rest of the bills, but I’m hoping it won’t come to that.”
    Cain shoved his empty plate away.
“If you could do anything, anything at all, what would it be?”
    She brushed her wet hair off
