I don’t dignify that with a response.

“You wanted a spanking.You freaking wanted it.Well, you got it.”

Again, I say nothing.Whatever he’s rubbing on me smells nice.Kind of like marigold and mint.

“Where did you get it?”

“Get what?”

“Whatever you’re rubbing on my ass.”

“It was in the bathroom.”

“Are you going to tell me where we are?”

“We’re in a standard hotel room in another resort.One I keep as a safehouse.”

“Oh.”I look around.In the corner is a shelf filled with canned food and a few flashlights.

“I keep it stocked,” he says.“We may be here for a while.”

I turn then, roll over on my back, and wince at the pain in my ass.“No, we’re not going to be here for a while.You’re going to tell me all about those two vamps you killed, and then I have to leave.I have to go to give my father the information.”

“I’m thinking about your safety,” Rogan says.“You’ve got a horde of demons and their king after you.I think your father will understand if you lie low.”

“Are you kidding me?”I scoff.“My father has no love for me.I’m a tool for him, Rogan.That’s all.”

“I think you’re wrong about that.”

I scoff again.“How the hell would you know anything about it?”

“Your father sent you to me for a reason,” he says.“How did he know?”

Trust me. He’ll jump through all kinds of hoops to get to you.

Those words.Those enigmatic words that turned out not to be quite so enigmatic.

“I thought the same thing,” I say.“Somehow, my father knew we’d be drawn to each other.”

“You’re my damned mate, princess.This goes way beyond being drawn to each other.”

“How, though?How could a wolf be fated mates with a human-vampire hybrid?”

“Hell if I know, princess.”

“Can you at least tell me now?Tell me about those two vamps.Who they were, and who you were defending when you killed them?”

He nods then.“Yes.I will tell you.It’s time.”

“They were brothers.”Rogan meets my gaze.“Your father seems to think I’m aligned with a demon.I’m not, princess.I have relationships with demons, those on my payroll, but I’m not in alliance with any of them.They—those two vamps—were in line with a demon.One demon specifically.”

“Which one?”

“One guess.”

He doesn’t have to say the words.I already know.
