What do these two have in common? Well, when Phoenix is taken by a certain group of werewolves, did you expect her to tell them her true identity? ---------------- "You seem to keep forgetting who you belong to." He growls, pushing me up against the pool wall. "I don't remember becoming your object." "Maybe we should change that." "You're not marking me." "Says who?" He whispers lightly in my ear, his wet hair skimming my skin. Before I can react, his lips are on mine.
