Chapter 56

God, it’s ridiculously cold in here. Langdon’s shirt is doing absolutely nothing to keep the chill at bay and I sit there, my arms folded, shivering and trembling as I wait to see if I’m let out. Langdon had better be right about this, think sourly. Otherwise I might just let Sabriel do whatever she wants to him and his precious bachelor pad.

I’d been so sure that he would have just left me down here. Sabriel, of course is smug.The damn wolf is cocky as hell.

Of course, our mate is coming. He can’t resist us. We’re the most beautiful creatures he’s ever seen. Or at least/
