Chapter 10: Truce?
Recap:
-Dane-
“Alpha Salem, please be so kind to direct us to a more private place. I’m sure no one is interested in hearing his screams.”
Currently, I wanted to die of mortification. The only girl that I wanted to impress was ignoring all my efforts. Looks like I just had to lay on my charm thickly.
“Down the hall on the left,” Salem answered, slightly amused. He sure was getting a kick out of seeing me ignored by a girl. I glared at him as Catherine dragged me down the hall. Her talons were digging into my arm, but I didn’t mind. I was going to seduce her and it would be like taking candy from a baby.

She located the room easily enough and threw open the door, making it bang loudly against the wall. Catherine pointed to the medical bed and growled at me.
“Sit.”
I obeyed, slightly smirking. It was nice to know I got to her, which meant she was definitely feeling something for me. She grabbed the shirt and tore the entire bottom half.
“I didn’t know you wanted to get right to it,” I jokingly said. Cat just raised an eyebrow and kneeled down, level with my navel.
“Listen mutt, I’m sure you think you’re charming and all, but I can assure you if you don’t back off with those kinda remarks, what you went through today will seem like Heaven. Understand?” she threatened, curling her nails around my wound. I held in the wince and nodded, not bothering to heed her warning.
Her tongue peeked out and she licked the wound twice. I just raised my eyebrows at her and she scowled.
“That’s the procedure idiot. My saliva has the antidote in it wise guy.”
“Hey! Whatever makes you sleep at night,” I mumbled, watching in quiet fascination as the wound healed. It started to close up, the two sides joining and melding together perfectly. There was no scar, no messy aftermath. I touched it, noting that even the skin wasn’t pink, like it usually was when I recuperated from a fight.
And when I looked back up, to thank her, she was gone.

-Catherine-
“This is such a drag!” Ross complained, tugging the duffel bag over his shoulder and scowling at the ground.
