Delano watched her body tense up as he took the available space next to her on the La-Z-Boy. Kyla was doing her best to ignore him, but he was too worried about the latest news the Emril had for them, to care. But he should be upset too, he thought. She had done only so much to earn his anger. She had kicked him out of her house, after all... and almost took his nose off with the ice pack she threw at him. Unbelievable. The woman could be wild and uncouth when she wanted to.
He could feel her body's response to him; in fact, he was painfully aware of the growing animosity in her bones, as was the rest of the room. That included the ten or nine wolves that sat on the opposite 8-seater couch, all of whom remained stonily silent since their arrival. Jace and his mate, Lisa were hardly hiding their own interest, occasionally stealing quick, crooked glances at Kyla or Delano.
