“Hey, what's with the inquisition?”
“No inquisition, sweetheart. I was just being polite by making small talk.”
“Oh sorry,” Selina replied, as she leaned down and began to rub the knot of cramped muscles in her leg.
“Are you sure you're alright? You look like you're in pain,” Tyrone stated as he watched his mate massage her leg.
“Yes, I'm fine. It's an old injury. Keeps giving me grief,” Selina said as she sighed and leaned back in her chair.
Selina thanked the waitress as she brought her sandwich and coffee over to her and placed it on the table, then turned away again. Selina picked up her coffee and took a sip of her drink. She closed her eyes and savored the strong rich, brew as it passed over her taste buds. The bell above the door rang as more customers entered the café and she opened her eyes as two more handsome, strange men sat down at her table.
“Selina, I'd like you to meet my brothers Shannon and Shane Stead. Shannon, Shane this is Selina Stoner,” Tyrone introduced.
“Hi,” Selina replied courteously. She wiggled in her seat as she felt her vagina clench and release with arousal.
She had never felt desire for any man before, but she had read and heard enough to know what she was experiencing.
Her clitoris was an aching throb and she felt her cheeks heat as the desire pooled low in her belly making her feel heavy and achy. Gawd Selina, get a hold of yourself woman.
Selina looked up to see three pairs of varying shades of green eyes, pinned to her with heated stares.
“Selina, where are you headed or are you here for a holiday?” Shannon asked her in a low husky voice, which had shivers shooting up and down her spine.
“Huh? Oh sorry. I am just passing through. I stopped for something to eat and to gas up my car. Where is the gas station in this town?”
“Oh it's a little further out of town. Why don't you follow us and we'll show you. I can ride with you and then I'll leave you to it?” Tyrone suggested.
“Uh, no. That's okay, I'm sure I can find it on my own.
Thanks anyway.”
“How the hell are we going to stop our mate from leaving?” Shane asked his brothers, through their mind link.
“I don't know. I'm working on it. If either of you have any suggestions, you need to tell me and fast. You need to start thinking quickly. We can't let her leave,” Tyrone replied to his brothers.
Shannon, Tyrone and Shane sat watching Selina as she drank her coffee and finished off her sandwich. When she was done she began to fish in her purse for her wallet.
“Please, allow me,” Tyrone said ,as he pulled his wallet from his pocket and left money on the table for the bill and a tip.
“Oh, thanks. Again.”
“No problem, sweetheart,” Tyrone said, as he rose to his feet and helped Selina rise. He kept his hand at her elbow, supporting her in case her leg gave out again. He knew she had been injured, but wanted to know how and by who. He felt fury rising in him at the thought of someone hurting his mate, and had to push his wolf back down.
Tyrone helped Selina into her car and gave a sigh. He and his brothers hadn't been able to think of a single thing to keep Selina in Eagle River. She gave a wave as she closed the door of her small car. She turned the key and groaned out loud as her car engine made a funny grinding noise, but would not turn over. Selina slammed her hand down on the steering wheel and then leaned her head down.
Her door opened and a hand pulled her out of her car.
“Don't worry, sugar. We'll take you home with us, organize for your car to be brought to our house and we'll fix it for you.
Selina didn't get the chance to reply. Tyrone and his brothers pulled her luggage from her car, locked her car up and had her in the back seat of their SUV before she could blink. They were on the road before she could voice her objections.
“What the fucking hell?”
