took to find out info on the
    Rogues. And I made the mistake of saying that she did fine earlier
    with me in the stockroom.”
    Jake leaned over and punched his arm.
    “O uch! Will you stop doing that?”
    “No, not until you stop screwing things up.” Jake huffed.

    “That’s easy for you to say. I don’t know why, but I can’t think
    straight with Triala. It’s like my brain thinks one thing, but it comes
    out something completely different by the time it gets to my mouth.”
    “O h, my partner has got it bad. You’re falling for her, aren’t
    you?” Jake smirked.
    He nodded, staring before him blankly. “Yeah, I think I am.” He
    then turned to gaze at Jake. “What about you, partner? I see how you
    look at her. I think you have it just as bad.”
    “Yup, that I do. I’ve never met anyone like her. Her feistiness and
    sharp tongue are sexy as hell. She is sexy as hell. But under all that I
    see how vulnerable, sensitive, and shy she is. All of it turns me on in
    more ways than just in the sexual sense.”
    Sam lay down and faced the bathroom door. “Yeah, we both have
    it bad.”
    Suddenly, a thought jumped into Jake’s mind. “O h, shit!”
    “What?” Sam quickly asked.
    “Did you take out the stuff from the suitcase before we brought it
    in here? Or is the stuff still in there?”
    “Ah, man. I thought you took it out before we went to pick her up
    at her apartment.”
    “Damn. It’s all still in there, then. Ah, she’s going to flip when she
    sees them.”
    Sam chuckled. “Flip is an understatement.” He got up and walked
    over to the table and sat down, picking up the complimentary pen and
    writing pad the maid had left for motel guests.
    “What the hell are you doing?” Jake asked, baffled.
    “Writing the epitaph I want them to write on my tombstone after
    she kills me,” Sam joked.
    Jake laughed, but deep down he was worried. She would surely
    freak when she took a gander at what they bought her. Soon all hell
    would break loose in the form of a raging female werewolf. He
    couldn’t help gulping nervously, waiting for the fireworks to begin.

    Chapter 13

    Her sexual urges raged like a burning fire in her veins, consuming
    her. She needed release in a big way.
    The vivid image of an exposed and aroused Jake in her mind
    teased and taunted her. She had to hold back jumping on him a few
    minutes ago.
    Staring at her reflection in the mirror now, she noted the strain in
    her furrowed brow. The full moon would be here in a few days, and
    since she hadn’t had sexual release not even once this whole month, it
    took its toll on her. Sam and Jake’s virile, masculine scents didn’t
    help matters in the least, either. Their musky human odor just sent
    waves of arousal streaming through her, making her shiver and swoon
    in their direction. Bountiful temptations just in the other room she
    could touch, kiss, caress, even taste and bite. Yes! But no. No. She
    mustn’t.
    Getting involved with them would only cause too many
    complications she didn’t want or need to deal with now. She needed
    to focus on this mission and search for a clue, any clue that could help
    the Voyeurs find out who these new Rogues were. Thorak was
    counting on her. She couldn’t let him down. Not again.
    But she was a female werewolf whose sexual yearnings were at
    their peak tonight, and no matter how she tried to cast the desires out
    of her mind, her body had other intentions.
    Slipping out of her dress, she rested her bare feet on the cold tile
    floor. It soothed the scorching sensation under her feet, but the rest of
    her body still flamed with excitement to the point it was getting
    painful.

    She turned on the shower, twisted the knob to cold, and waited
    until the temperature was at its coldest to slide under the pounding
    pulses. Jake was right, this felt good. Instantly, the ice-cold water
    beating on her inflamed,
