    With Caution
    Hmmm, the voice worked on Matt fine, but not on Rhys. Jake turned around, catching his beta’s gaze. “We need to get something on that son of a bitch, fast. Do whatever you have to do to get your ex-boss to spill what he knows.”
    Still glowering, Rhys dipped his chin in recognition, then he shook his head, the corner of his lips twitching. “I can’t believe you tried to use your voice on me.”
    “My voice ?” Jake grinned. “Yeah, it doesn’t work on you, does it? I don’t think it works on Remi either. Damn it.” Which was kind of scary. Remi and Rhys were the only two who would really challenge him on anything. They were the ones most likely to fight for Jake, even if Jake didn’t want them to.
    Rhys snorted. “Of course not. Remi is your omega and I’m your beta, it’s our job to take care of you.”
    “You have it backward. I’m supposed to take care of the pack, including you and Remi.” Jake went into his office and closed his computer down and got ready to leave, knowing Remi would see things exactly like Rhys. What was he going to do with the two of them?
    Turning off the office lights, Rhys opened the door and waited for Jake to exit so he could lock it behind them.
    Jake extracted his keys from his pocket and stepped out the door.
    “If you try to use your voice on me again, I’m going to kick your ass.”
    Great. Jake smiled and headed toward his Tahoe. “Yeah, well let’s hope you’re not about to get yours kicked when I use it.”

Chapter Fifteen
    Closing his front door, Remi made sure it was locked and jogged down the stairs.
    Oh, man, he’d been dying to see Jake all day. Running into him at the grocery store had only whetted his appetite, so to speak. He’d gotten to where he either saw or called Jake every day. When had that happened?
    Remi opened the door to Jake’s SUV and tossed his bag in the backseat. “Hey.”
    Leaning across the seat, he kissed Jake. “I missed you today.”
    Jake sat there staring at him with a stunned expression on his face.
    Chuckling, Remi climbed into the seat and shut the door. “What?”
    “I never thought you’d be like this.” Jake reached behind Remi’s head and maneuvered him closer. His lips brushed across Remi’s softly, then he stared into Remi’s eyes. “Maybe I should have seen it, you’re naturally affectionate.”
    Remi started to move back, but Jake stopped him, almost as if he couldn’t help himself. He threaded his fingers through Remi’s hair and pressed their lips back together.
    Opening up his mouth and resting his hands on Jake’s chest, Remi melted. He loved the way Jake’s lips tasted and felt. The way Jake took over. Moaning, he let Jake know how much he enjoyed this.
    Jake traced Remi’s lips with his tongue. Catching Remi’s bottom lip between his teeth, he nipped. He kissed Remi’s cheek before dropping his head to Remi’s shoulder and nuzzling his neck.
    Remi’s fangs elongated without warning. Arousal rushed through him and his cock went rock hard at the thought of Jake biting him. Oh God, he could feel Jake’s teeth, knew they’d shifted. Squirming closer, he pressed his neck into Jake’s face. “Please, sir.”
    That felt so natural to say, which was sort of strange. He’d never have thought… No that wasn’t true, he’d always enjoyed taking a less aggressive role with lovers. But Jake was the only one who actually saw it and acted on it.

    “Shh…” Jake slid his hands out of Remi’s hair.
    Whimpering at the loss, Remi closed his eyes and sat back.
    Jake brushed his knuckles over Remi’s cheek and relaxed into his own seat.
    It had only been about two days since they’d fucked, but it felt like forever. Remi’s nipples got hard remembering the last time, the clamps. He’d always liked sex, but with Jake it was mind blowing. Remi craved him. Last night he’d lain in his bed fantasizing about Jake. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t stop thinking about Jake. Finally, he’d gotten up and gone to the bathroom to jerk off so he could get some sleep. Even then, his mind hadn’t let go of his mate. He’d imagined Jake there with him, holding him, kissing him, telling him what to do.
    “How was work?”
    Okay, that was weird. Now Jake was reading his mind. Remi chuckled and glanced over, noticing Jake sitting straight
