1 " I'm not threatening to kill myself. But you need to know this about me because—if you want to be my mate—I won't be like Leo. I won't let you sleep around with anyone else. I won't be forced either. I've had enough. If that makes me a dog in the manger, so be it. But if I am yours, then you damned well are going to be mine." - Anna to Charles "

2 " The wolf wanted to bed her and claim her as his own. Being of a more cautious nature than his wolf, he would wait until he knew her a little better before deciding to court her. "
3 " She had the sudden feeling that if she could look into those eyes for the rest of her life, she would be happy. It scared her a lot more than his anger had. "
4 " He could have told her that he had no intention of bedding her, but he tried not to lie. Not even to himself. "
5 " Why the rolling pin and not a knife?” he asked, his voice raspy with the need for action. She looked at him for the first time since she’d seen his face on the stairs. “A knife wouldn’t even slow him down, but bones take time to heal.” He liked that. Who’d have thought he’d get turned on by a woman with a rolling pin? “All right,” he said. “All right. "
6 " Yes, sir,” she said, clearly not believing him. He reminded himself that a man’s word didn’t count for much in this modern day. "
7 " He’d have to call his brother, Samuel, and tell him that he’d finally learned that his face wouldn’t crack if he smiled. All it had taken to teach him was an Omega werewolf. "
8 " She would have to learn to accept that he was a man of his word. In the meantime he would give her something to think about. "
9 " Besides,” he told her gently, “my wolf is more interested in courting you than in asserting his dominance. "
10 " He could have told her that he had no intention of bedding her, but he tried not to lie. Not even to himself. So he stayed silent. "
11 " If you had let me,” he said, “I’d have courted you gently and won your heart.” He closed his eyes. “I didn’t mean to frighten you. "
12 " I won’t be forced either. I’ve had enough. If that makes me a dog in the manger, so be it. But if I am yours, then you damned well are going to be mine. "
