Married My Ex's Alpha Uncle

"Oh, my goddess," she nearly shrieked.

My face reddened even more.

"Yeah," I murmured. "It was the best night of sex I've ever had," I whispered, my voice going hoarse. "Then this morning I had to leave to go to an interview with Hope's Gallery and afterward Elliot called me... yelling at me."

"Yelling at you?" She asked, confused. "What could he be yelling at you for?"

"He told me I took advantage of him," I admitted. "He yelled at me for being a typical woman and not being any different than the others. His words hurt, Rebecca. Maybe he's right... maybe I did go too far. I should have stopped it."

"How exactly do you stop an Alpha wolf?" Rebecca asked, sounding equally confused. "He's an Alpha... if he was that adamant about having you, it would be almost impossible to stop him."

"Yes, I agree," I admitted. "But I'm not sure what else to do. He's so mad at me... but now we have to appear on this show together. I don't think he would want to go..."

"He would be stupid to turn it down," Rebecca told me. "Perhaps it was just a misunderstanding."

Before I could say anything in response, I heard the front door slamming shut. I winced at the forcefulness of the slam, knowing it was Elliot. Taking in a deep breath, I said, "Rebecca, I have to go. He's home."
