CHAPTER 85

  Despite everything that was going on right now, he actually wanted to smile at her impishness. The other males were ducking their heads to hide theirs.

  "Fine, we present a united front, but only because the mating wouldn't look real if we didn't." He thought that was a pretty good way to save face, but one or two of the males snorted. "Now, let's go."

  Freya marvelled at how all the males could walk at such a leisurely pace yet look extremely menacing at the same time. Each of them suddenly seemed two inches taller than they truly were and had the most sinister look. Even Theo's usual grin had been replaced by a hostile scowl. Dante...well, that was another matter altogether. Scrap hostile and sinister, the guy looked like he needed to get laid. He was a walking promise of death. And her wolf totally approved – yet another indication that she was dumb.
