Even after everything in the car, Elliot let me act as I wished. I felt the lingering heat crawling through my body, a reminder of the drug's pull, but strangely… so did he. His tension was palpable, every muscle coiled like a wolf ready to pounce. I could sense his wolf stirring, instincts brushing against mine, teasing and claiming in equal measure.
Looks like this mate is dangerous not just trouble, but a seductress of the most primal kind.
"Are we near the hospital yet?" Elliot asked Rey, his voice low, steady, but edged with an undercurrent I could feel in my chest.
"We're almost there," Rey replied, and the car turned onto the hospital's driveway.
Elliot was out before the vehicle stopped. He opened the back door and reached for me, lifting me effortlessly. I felt the strength of his pack dominance in the curve of his arms, the heat of his body anchoring my own fiery wolf. We moved together into the hospital, the night behind us still alive with scent and adrenaline.
