Chosen By My Mate's Father-in-law

[Jasmine’s POV]

Everyone in the room paused as we waited for the wolfsbane to enter my system and make me pass out.

But the encompassing darkness never came.

I stared up in shock at the rogue who was holding the needle. He hadn’t given me wolfsbane like Isabella, or else I’d already be unconscious.

So, what the hell did he give me?

I assessed my body as all the rogues leered at my breasts. I tried to tune out their disgusting behavior and focus on what I was feeling.

Despite the freezing cold ground beneath my naked flesh, my body began to warm, reminding me of the time that I had a dangerously high fever. Did they inject me with some kind of poison to make me sick?

No, I didn’t feel ill.

But there was an ache deep in my stomach. I felt like a balloon just waiting to be popped. Why was I so...needy? I wanted someone to trail their hands teasingly down every inch of my body. I needed a pair of soft yet strong lips on mine and to have the taste of a man on my tongue.

Immediately, Gareth popped into my head.

The rogues pushed in closer and formed a circle around me. Their expressions were expectant and hopeful as their eyes ogled my naked body.
