He was incredibly impatient; he wanted Ashlynn, and he wanted her right now .
    The very instant he realized who she was, he vowed to protect her against anyone who might want to insult or hurt her in any way possible. She was his responsibility now.
    Holding back from claiming her was making his fangs ache. It was hard for him not to fulfill his destiny with her; however, he would let his plan unfold as slowly as his paper thin patience would allow.
    “I know you didn’t,” Jace said, jumping right back into the conversation as if he hadn’t been daydreaming about Ashlynn.
    “How soon are you going to approach her?” Clark asked.
    He was never one to take a back seat to anything or anyone, so he already had plans about when Ashlynn would see him next.
    “I’m going to see her tomorrow. I did a little search for her on the Internet so I could find out anything about her my brother might have left out. Devin already told me she was a choreographer, but he left out she had won a couple of awards for her abilities on the dance floor.”
    Clark whistled over the phone. “Man, you lucked out. I bet her body is perfection waking.”
    “My mate’s body is only my concern and none of yours. How about you head back to the club?” Jace suggested. “I don’t want anything to get out of hand since it’s Friday night.”
    His buddy cursed underneath his breath. “You’re right. We were having problems with a guy earlier. He was pissed the bartender wouldn’t give him any more drinks. Just remember, don’t do anything I wouldn’t do,” Clark teased before hanging up.
    I’m going to do more than you would ever do, Jace thought. He was playing for keeps, so he would have to up his game, and tomorrow would be the perfect time to do it.
    Standing up, Jace whistled as he slid his phone into the pocket of his slacks and walked toward his hotel room door. For a second, he thought about vanishing, but changed his mind since he wasn’t sure who would be in front of Ashlynn’s place.
    He was too wired to get any kind of sleep, so instead he decided to take a walk before going to bed. Something very important had to be taken care of, and if he didn’t get it done now, a good night’s sleep wouldn’t happen for him.
    Going out the elevator door, Jace walked inside and watched as it closed in front of him.He counted the minutes until his gaze landed on his mate again.
    I’m coming , Ashlynn , Jace thought, sending the message to her, hoping her mind was clear enough to receive it.

    Jumping up in the bed, Ashlynn flung the tangled covers off her hot body as Jace’s sexy, timbered voice suddenly appeared inside her head, waking her up from a much-needed sleep. She looked around the room, trying to get her bearing as her head raced to calm down.
    She couldn’t get her wandering thoughts off him. Even during her late dinner with Devin and Krishell, Jace lingered in the back of her brain, as if she was supposed to be thinking about him.
    Ashlynn got out of bed and made her way over to the patio of her condo. She paid an extra two hundred dollars more than she should have for this little luxury. Sitting outside after a long, hard day at work always gave her a way to clear her head.
    After opening the door, she went out and sat down on her favorite seat. Ashlynn closed her eyes, breathing in the cool night air as it slowly eased the murky haze from her mind. Slowly, she opened her eyes as she got the eerie feeling someone was watching her. She quickly stood up and glanced down over the railing, but she didn’t see anyone across the street or on the sidewalk below her.
    Not wanting to chance someone might be watching her, Ashlynn hurried back inside, closing the door and locking it behind her, and then she made sure the curtains were closed. She didn’t have a clue what was going on, but she still got the feeling someone had been out there with her.
