locked on his erection.
Her gaze met his and she blushed. She stood up and wrapped the sheet around her.
“It’s Jayden.” He blew out a breath. Fucking Jayden. Turning back, he cracked the door, keeping the security chain in place. The second Jayden’s face popped between the crack, Damon growled.
“What do you want?”
“I just got some Intel on that group of rogue wolves that kidnapped Ava.”
“I’ll meet you in your room.” He tried to shut the door, but Jayden stuck his foot in the opening.
“I think you better bring Ava, too.”
“Meet you in ten minutes.” He kicked Jayden’s foot out of the way and shut the door. Turing around, he bumped into Ava.
“I’m coming.”
“No, you’re not. You’re staying here.” He walked around her and reached for his jeans.
“What happened to ‘You can’t leave me alone’?” She arched a brow.
He tugged his shirt over his head. She was right. “Shit.”
She reached up on her tiptoes to gently kiss his lips, but he was having none of that. He wrapped his arms around her. The sheet slipped. He brought his mouth down to hers and kissed her, hard and long.
“You need to get used to the idea of me riding you.” She stepped back and let the sheet drop to the floor. She bent over and picked up her clothes, giving him the most amazing view of her ass.
Rising slowly, like a temptress, she stood, walked past him, and into the bathroom, making him seriously reconsider his opinion on who exactly was on top.
He ran his hand down his face. What the fuck had he done? If Jayden hadn’t knocked on the door and interrupted them, he would be inside Ava, right now.
If that had happened, he would have ruined his career. The Arkansas Guardians had given him a home when Louisiana kicked him out. Ava was the General’s daughter. He couldn’t ruin her life because he had a raging hard-on for her. If he didn’t start thinking with his head instead of his dick, he was going to lose everything.

Damon glanced around Jayden’s room and sneered. No typical room décor for his friend. He was willing to bet Jayden had charmed the casino management into letting him decorate his room to his own style.
Jayden sat hunched in his overstuffed recliner, his elbows resting on his knees as he clasp his hands together.
“I got a call from Barrett. There’s been another kidnapping.” Jayden looked right at him.
Damon’s head jerked up, a little more than irritated. Barrett and Jayden knew each other from when Damon was transferred into the Arkansas Pack, other than that he hadn’t realized Barrett knew Jayden so well. “Why didn’t Barrett call me?”
“He knows you’ve got your hands full with Ava. He told me to help out.” Jayden glanced at Ava before looking back at him. “The kidnapping took place in Lafayette.”
Damon scowled. Was it the same rogue wolves that had kidnapped Ava? Had the kidnappers been brazen enough to jumped state lines? “That’s a little over three hours from here.”
Jayden nodded, as he reached for a brown folder on the stainless steel coffee table. “The victim is a female werewolf, Haley Guthrie, who lives in Baton Rouge. She told her roommates she was going over to Lafayette to visit her boyfriend. She never made it. At midnight, the boyfriend called the Louisiana Pack to report her missing. They found her car abandoned on the side of the road with no sign of her.”
The couch shifted as Ava slid closer. Damon reached for the folder and wrapped his free arm around Ava. The picture of the victim was paper-clipped to the top. Haley Guthrie was beautiful, with blond hair and blue eyes. She looked like she should be getting ready for some beauty pageant, not getting kidnapped to become a sex slave for rogue red wolves.
“She’s the same age.”
Damon looked at Ava. “What?”
“She’s twenty-four. She’s the same age as me.” He felt her shudder against his chest.
