Chapter 38: Mate Meets Sub (II)

Kane's POV:

After Ashley's ridiculous request—a demand, really—I sat in my office, too frustrated to even pretend to focus on pack work. "Another session… with Elena as an audience." The words echoed in my mind, fueling my frustration. Ashley was a decent enough sub, but this? This was absurd. The thought alone was laughable, and I couldn't help but curse myself for writing that blasted favor clause into my contracts. At the time, it had seemed foolproof. Now, it was coming back to bite me in the worst way.

But more than Ashley's outrageous request, my mind kept drifting back to her—to Elena. My little mate who had somehow already gotten under my skin, without even trying. Despite the obstacles, my desire for her was undeniable, and right now, I needed a distraction. Anything to shake off the irritation Ashley had stirred up.
