Chapter 21: Sweet Temptation

Kane POV:

This little mate of mine was in desperate need of some conditioning; there was no way she'd be outrunning me anytime soon. Not that I was complaining—it gave me the perfect excuse to catch her with ease. Just as she attempted a sharp turn, I leapt, pinning her down before she could swipe at me with her claws. She thrashed beneath me, fiery and furious, but I wasn't about to let her tear me to shreds.
