"Heart turned to me, his face thoughtful. "Yesterday morning. Yes, that means that Daphne hadn't been home for two days before that. He smiled at me. "You were supposed to be the Alpha's eye candy.Adam laughed."What? I asked him. "You don't think I'd be good eye candy? I looked down at my overalls and grease-stained hands.

If it wasn't, it was certainly a fun time had by all. Well, not ALL. But she and Saracen had sure had a blast."
