What was it he said? Ah, yes, that if he didn’t have you as a mate, he might try to steal me away.” And just to let you know, Sy was very close to flirting with me when we first met. “While I know you’re Kaya, we haven’t officially met. She looked to the wolf-shifter clan leader and remembered what Kian’s mate had told her to say when meeting Kaya for the first time.
Usually, she’s naked and does so in many creative ways too, not just with words.” In private, she acknowledges how awesome I am. Despite what you may think, you are not the most important person in the world.” Kaya said, “Sylas, Kian is clearly trying to get them out of this room. Sy grinned and squeezed the tall, beautiful woman frowning at his side. Well, except for when Sylas Murray and his mate, Kaya Alexie, managed to shove him aside. Only because of their love of Kian did they accept her, but she hoped it would change in time.Īs they maneuvered through the crowd, Kian deflected everyone who tried to talk with them. A few of the cougar-shifters were skeptical of her presence. She wasn’t sure everyone would be celebrating. Mating ceremonies are celebrated hard in our clan, and the sooner you talk with your parents, the sooner you can join in the fun.” All of this is probably a shock to my parents, and some privacy will be good.”
She leaned against Sean’s shoulder and his free hand went around her waist. “No, but if I don’t guide you out of this room right now to the one where your parents have gone to wait for you, you’ll have hundreds of shifters trying to congratulate and tease you about your honeymoon period and you won’t see your parents until well after midnight.” “Is there something we’re supposed to do next?”ĭarkStalker’s leader shook his head. He must’ve climbed the stairs to the dais during their kiss.
“I know.” Someone cleared their throat to her left and she saw Kian. “Sneaking humans onto our land isn’t exactly legal, baby.” “It’s not my fault your clan took so long to get them here.” Your arousal is making it hard for me to control my cougar, and the last thing I want is to have a hard-on when meeting your parents for the first time.” Not just because they’d just been mated, but also because Sean had only been cleared for sex that day and she was more than ready for him to take her anyway he could think of. If they weren’t standing in front of the entire clan, she would be asking him to strip. The cut on Lauren’s palm stung like hell, but with each stroke of Sean’s tongue against hers, the pain faded.Įven when he broke their kiss, the heated look in his eyes made her shiver. He might have to wait a week or so to recover, but Lauren would always be worth the wait. She swatted his chest and whispered, “Sean.” Looking back to Lauren, Sean said, “But waiting can make it that much sweeter, as Lauren well knows.” His clan leader was going to treat Lauren as one of their own. Kian’s words were more than him teasing Sean they were an acknowledgement. A newborn baby will seem a welcome distraction by then.” Just wait until Trinity tracks her down and starts giving her ‘shifter lessons’. “Sorry, Sean, but it’s only going to get worse from here. “You’re not supposed to share that secret so early.” His leader met his eyes. With great effort, he forced his gaze from Lauren to Kian Murray just as his leader sighed. In all of the commotion with Lauren saying yes to being his mate, Sean hadn’t sensed his clan leader. That usually gets them agreeable fast, isn’t that right, Kian?” “Shifter males rarely do, until their mates start withholding sex. Following instructions is not a habit of his.” Never taking his eyes from Lauren’s warm, brown-eyed gaze, he said, “Just as long as Lauren is with me, I’ll follow your instructions to the letter.” Lisa cleared her throat and interjected, “Felicitations on your upcoming mating, but it’s time to let Sean rest and put your transport to DarkStalker’s land into motion.” “As long as you make it worth it, babe, I can wait.” “I wish I could kiss the living shit out of you right now, but it’s going to have to wait, baby. Lauren laughed, making her whole face light up.
