was no longer holding back as he had with Robyn. The fury of the attack, the speed of the swinging claws, made her gasp in horror.
Fur literal y flew.
But even after having fought the other wolves, Keil was clearly stronger. His massive paws scrambled on the icy surface as Keil soon forced Jack down
and over onto his back. Keil’s teeth grasped Jack’s throat and he placed a set of sharp claws against his opponent’s bel y.
He froze in position.
Waiting.
Robyn had crawled crablike away from their fight, mesmerized. She slowly became aware that while she waited nearby the other wolves stil standing had
surrounded her.
“Oh crap.”
“They won’t touch you. I’ve got their leader in a death grip. Physically he’s been defeated and acknowledged my superiority.”
The wolves circled her slowly, taking smal lunges in her direction. Moving closer on each rotation.
“Are you sure that they know that? Because they’re freaking me out here.”
Robyn could see Keil’s jaw moving, and she assumed he was talking to Jack. The black wolf threw back his head and howled.
“Umm, Robyn? Slight problem. Remember TJ telling you about how being triggered made you smell kinda interesting right now?”
Robyn sidestepped another wolf that had moved closer in an attempt to brush up against her.
“Are you telling me these jerks have the hots for me?”
“Yup. We’ve got to convince them all that you’re already taken. Including Jack, who just made a comment about how good you taste, by the way.”
The four wolves circling Robyn turned and began to slink toward Keil. Tails low, teeth bared, it was clear they planned on attacking. He pressed his paw
more firmly into Jack’s bel y, but there was no way he could defend himself without releasing his captive.
“Call them off me.”
Robyn ran up to one of the nearer wolves and kicked him in the flank. He rol ed away from her and continued on his route toward Keil. Desperately she
tried to reach her mate’s side, ignoring the pounding in her heart as she scrambled into the midst of six large wolves. The males avoided her, intent on
their target.
“They’re not paying attention, Keil. I have no weapon left.”
“Just call them off. You’ve got a powerful voice and we’re in the right here. It’s our only chance. Do it now, Robyn!”
Throwing herself against Keil’s side she cried out, “Stop. Leave him alone.”
Al the wolves froze except Keil.
He slowly removed his paw and backed away from Jack. Moments later Keil was back by her side after retrieving his clothes and her knife. He had an
extremely pleased expression on his wolfy face. “You are damn beautiful. And that voice—um, um good.”
Keil shifted and dressed as he spoke to her, finishing off by grabbing her and continuing the kiss he’d started before the attack.
“Keil, hello! Strange wolves loitering at our backs waiting to kill us, remember?”
With a final gentle nip to her bottom lip, Keil reluctantly pul ed away.
“You are sexy when you use that Alpha voice. The puppies behind us? Take a look.”
Robyn turned to see the wolves al lying bel y down in the snow. When they saw her glance their way they dropped their muzzles to the ground and covered
their eyes with their front paws.
Jack, bloody from Keil’s attack, crawled forward on his bel y until at their feet. His dark eyes darted back and forth between them, and then he slowly rol ed
to his back, exposing his throat.
Keil spoke aloud so the attackers could hear. “Shal we kil them?”
Robyn narrowed her eyes as she considered. “Is the challenge still on for Sunday or did your competition just disqualify himself?”
“Oh, Jack is very much out of any challenge for Alpha. In fact by the way they responded to your voice, I’d say you’ve shown we have complete power
over them from now on.”
Robyn dropped to her knees and pul ed back sharply on Jack’s ear, her knife close to his throat.
“Careful, babe. Think
