Forbidden Seduction (Lee County Wolves Series) Book #2 by Teresa Gabelman

interrupted.
    Opening the door to his brother’s house, he led Emily into the kitchen. His smile grew when he saw Jill. “Who in the hell let you into my town, punk?" Hunter grabbed her in a hug with one arm while still keeping his hand tightly entwined with Emily’s.
    “Who you calling punk, wolf boy?” Jill hugged him back, her eyes going to Emily. Letting go of Hunter, she smiled. “I’m Jill.”
    “This is Emily,” Hunter introduced. “This is Jill, the one I got in trouble for.”
    “Nice to meet you.” Emily smiled back.
    “Yeah, how did that go?” Jill looked back to Hunter with concern. “Your brother chew you a new one?”
    “Surprisingly, no, he didn’t. The rest of the pack was ready to lynch me.” Hunter frowned. “It’s just opened up a pathway for other unorganized packs to come in and challenge Garrett for the alpha position, which is putting a lot of stress on Janna.”
    “Well, Slade is with her now.” Jill nodded with confidence. “He’ll make sure she’s taken care of.”
    Hunter glanced over at Steve, who sat in silence. He knew something was up with that. Steve was never quiet, but before he could say anything, Slade came downstairs with Garrett.
    “How is she?” Hunter asked, shaking Slade’s hand in greeting.
    Slade extended his hand to Emily with a nod. “Slade Buchanan.”
    Hunter wanted to roll his eyes because sure as shit Emily blushed taking Slade’s hand. Steve was right. Slade had a certain effect on women, which Jill took in good stride.
    After shaking Emily’s hand, Slade looked at Hunter and frowned. “As I said to your brother, and being totally honest, I’m not sure what’s going on. I want to take her in for a sonogram. She hasn’t felt much movement and she should be by now, but the hospital is small and can’t accommodate until tomorrow. So for now, she will stay in bed.”
    “Oh, I’m sure she’s really happy about that.” Hunter snorted when Garrett shook his head.
    Hunter noticed Emily’s hand shaking and looked at her. Her face was still flushed and she had a funny faraway look in her eyes. “Em?” Hunter clipped her face up to his, and sure enough, her eyes were unfocused. “Emily!”
    Emily slurred an unintelligible word before sinking to the floor. Hunter’s strong grip eased her way.
    Slade knelt next to her. “Are you diabetic?”
    Emily could only nod, her eyes closed as her breathing became labored.
    Hunter’s eyes opened wide, impressed that Slade had nailed it. Steve was right; he was one hell of a doctor.
    “I’m okay.” Emily had to fight to get the words out of her mouth. “Need my insulin and some crackers.”
    “Where is it?” While reluctant to leave her, Hunter was ready to get what she needed.
    “In the bag you put on the back steps.” Emily reached up to swipe hair out of her face that was slick with sweat.
    “I’ll go.” Steve took off. “I know where it is.”

Chapter 12
    Emily was so embarrassed as she sat there on the floor waiting for Steve to bring her insulin. She hadn’t eaten lunch even knowing that was a big no-no, but she hadn’t been hungry and figured she would be okay. How wrong she was. The stress lately played a big role in her reaction to ignoring her health.
    “Hey, you okay?” Hunter was on the floor with her, tilting his head low to stare up at her.
    She only nodded. All she needed was her insulin and some crackers. Then she could eat a decent meal. Her main concern was preventing a diabetic coma and those few steps usually did the trick. She just hoped it wasn’t too late. Her eyesight grew blurry with that tunnel vision view that she hated so much because it warned her she was about to pass out.
    Steve entered, handing her the bag. Her hands shook so badly that Hunter pulled out the container. Slade grabbed it, knelt down and lifted Emily’s shirt. Quickly, he administered the shot into her stomach.
    “Have you ever gone into a diabetic coma?” Slade asked, handing her a cracker
