.You're the only woman I trust not to get into bed with him, both literally and figuratively."Scarlet groaned."Please? Just for a little while.""I don't think it's a good idea," she grumbled.Marcus turned her to face him, took her hands in his and stared into her eyes."You're the only one I trust, Scarlet.If the pay isn't enough, I'll supplement our income."Oh, god.She sighed and stood."I'll think about it," she grunted, and then stomped out of the room.This was all she needed.It was like some conspiracy to see how much her sex drive could take before it melted down.Scarlet stood in Morgan Auto Shop's front office, invoice forgotten in her hand, and watched Roane lean over the side of a sedan to tinker with the engine.She tipped her head to the side, considering the gorgeous shape of his ass encased in his faded jeans."Scarlet?"Scarlet jerked, startled, and turned to find Morgan, her boss, smiling at her."I said your name three times.I thought you slipped into a coma standing there." He glanced at her hand, and she realized she was clutching the invoice like a life preserver.She relaxed her grip."Are you okay?" he asked.Terrific.She was just great.Caught between her brother, Marcus, and a man her body seriously wanted—even if her mind knew it was a Bad Idea—and stuck working a job she didn't want, she was juuuust dandy.She smiled."I'm fine.What can I do for you?"He handed her a sheaf of papers and grinned sheepishly."I, uh, found those in one of my drawers.I think they're tax papers."Morgan was a really wonderful man, but his powers of organization were sorely lacking."I'll file them for you.""Thanks." He started to walk away, but then turned back."Oh, and can you give Roane a ride out to Mr.Hogan's house? He needs to take a look at Hogan's car."Alone in the car with Roane? "Uh.We're doing house calls now?"Morgan glanced to around, making sure there were no humans within earshot."Hogan was injured during the last Run, Scarlet.He can't even walk right now.""Oh." A Run was an activity the Tranquility Pack engaged in every month.By the light of the full moon, they shifted to wolf form and ran the northern woods, hunting, fighting and mating.Generally allowing their Wolven sides off the leash, so to speak."I didn't know.Why can't Roane just drive out there himself?"Morgan just looked at her.Scarlet sighed heavily.This was getting ridiculous."Okay, I'll get Roane and we'll head out.""Thanks."She walked over and laid the paperwork on the desk.When she glanced up through the glass that separated the garage from the office, it was to meet Roane's steady gaze.She shivered.He jerked his head toward her black SUV parked just outside the open garage doors.She nodded, got her light fall coat off the rack near the door and walked outside.After Roane finished washing his hands, he grabbed a large tool kit, popped it into the back of her car and climbed into the passenger side.Scarlet got in and turned the ignition."Marcus thinks I need a babysitter, huh?" Roane said."Guess so," she muttered as she backed out of the parking space.She didn't have the will to deny it.Roane wasn't stupid.He could figure out easily enough why she'd taken the job at Morgan's."Your brother is pretty insecure, but I don't mind so long my keeper looks like you."Scarlet set her jaw and didn't reply.Silence descended on the car as they traveled out of Tranquility and into the country.Roane wasn't exactly the talkative type and Scarlet really didn't have anything to say.The scent of him filled her sensitive nostrils.He smelled of oil and automobile and, underneath that, of man.She couldn't say why the combination aroused her.By all rights it shouldn't have, but then everything about Roane turned her crank.Maybe it was some strange chemistry thing."Ever wonder why your brother trusts you alone with me?" Roane asked quietly when they were nearing the Hogan place."You know, because I'm supposedly so dangerous and all."Scarlet pulled down the gravel driveway and parked.Before she opened her door, she looked at him."Yeah, well, just between you and me, I don't think you're so dangerous.Anyway, I can take care of myself."Roane was out of the car in a flash and stalking toward her.The sight of him advancing on her raised every hair on her body.She retreated until she was pressed up against the car, caged by his arms on either side of her.Skitters of arousal and alarm ran through her.Scarlet wanted to mask the sudden rush of sexual excitement she felt by having him so close, his mouth near hers, his body nearly touching her, but she couldn't."I'm only dangerous to Marcus if he pushes me too far," he growled."But I am very dangerous to you, Scarlet." Roane dropped his head and inhaled somewhere near her throat."It's your pheromones, or something.They make me crazy.""Get off me, Roane," she said shakily.She could feel her body heating and she knew he could scent it on her.Wolven couldn't hide it when they were sexually excited.He caught her gaze and smiled slowly, predatorily.Scarlet's heart began to beat faster."Marcus was stupid to put his beloved sister in my way.First because, in his view, I'm dangerous and unpredictable, a threat to his power." He paused and his eyes darkened."Second, because I want you."She couldn't say anything in response.He must know she wanted him back.Didn't mean she would succumb to temptation, though.He leaned in and held his mouth a breath's space from hers
