He pushes a few strands of hair that have come loose out of his eyes.“Are you a cock tease now, princess?”
I’ve never been a cock tease in my life, but this is all too easy.Waytoo easy.What didn’t my father tell me?
“I don’t even know your name,” I lie.
“Sure, you do.Daddy must have told you all about me.”
“He didn’t.”
A low growl emerges from his throat.“Lying doesn’t look good on you, princess.”
“Stop calling me that.”
“Then stop lying.You know exactly who I am.”
I pause a few seconds.What the hell?“Victor Rogan.Owner of The London.Alpha were.”
His lips curve into a snarling smile.“So youdoknow me.And you’re Hannah Bates, firstborn daughter of William, the vampire king, and his human mate, Elisa Franklin.”
“I guess I don’t have to show you my ID then.How did you know I was lying?”
“Your pupils dilate slightly when you lie.It’s a common trait among vampires.”
I try to hide my surprise.“Since you know who I am, you also know I’m only half vamp.”
“Your pupils still reacted.”
Why didn’t my father warn me about the pupil dilating thing?Surely he knows.I shake my head.“Lucky me.My vamp side has always been dominant, unfortunately.”
“You’d rather it not be?”
“Not have to obey when my”—air quotes—“royalfather calls?Yeah, I think I’d like that.”My body is still throbbing and hyper aware of Victor.“Can all weres see this pupil thing?”
He shakes his head.“Very few of us, actually.Wolf eyesight isn’t the best in general.I’m an anomaly.”
In more ways than one.
That explains why my father didn’t tell me about the eye thing.He probably doesn’t know.
“How did that come about?”I ask.
“Just lucky, I guess,” he growls.
He’s advancing toward me again.His eyes are two green flames.I can tell him I’m not interested, but he doesn’t need to be able to read my pupils to know I’d be lying.
This is what I’m here for.To seduce him.Except thisisn’ta seduction.This is a pure and raw taking.Not that I mind, but I’m not going to get any information out of this man if I don’t make him wait for what he desires.
I hold up my hand.“Stop right there.”
He growls again.“Fucking cock tease.”
“I’m perfectly willing to fuck you, Rogan.I just need a few answers of my own, first.”
“You’ll get no answers from me.”
“Then you’ll get no honey from me,” I say with sweet sarcasm.
“Such a fucking liar,” he says.“Damn it!Why is this happening?”
