Mate? Or Die!
No backup.
I was bound.
A tall man stepped forward, a wicked grin on his lips. "Thought you could escape, princess?"
I clenched my fists. "I'm not a princess."
The man chuckled. "Odessa thought you might try and run. We were just waiting."
Of course she was.
I took a step back very slowly, seeking some form of escape. There were too many of them, but I was not going to give up.
One lunged for me. I ducked, slipping under him, but another grabbed my arm and yanked me. Pain seared through my shoulder as I twisted to break free.
