“I guess that could be it,” I murmur.
“You know you’re welcome to ask us anything you’d like to know. That’s why the VP left you with us. You have to have questions about your mate,” Nika says.
They’re really nice she-wolves. They all have been kind. I have so many questions, but I don’t want to be rude or come off as ignorant. Sienna gives me a smile of encouragement.
“It’s natural for you to have questions. This is all new to you. An all-new world if we’re honest.”
“I have sooo many questions,” I admit.
“What would you like to know?” Tala asks.
“What else can you tell me?”
“Well, wolves run hot, much like Bradan,” Tala says. “If they are cold, they’re sick, or something has poisoned them. I believe it’s the same for him. There are a lot of similarities between him and our wolves.”
“Yeah, I hear he’s as insatiable as our lot,” Nika snickers.
I blush and look down into my lap. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to talk about that kind of stuff with anyone. It feels too intimate, especially with the way Bradan fucks. No one needs to know about that.
“Don’t be shy. Sex is a part of all our natures. I know when I find my fated mate, I’m not going to be able to keep my hands off him,” she says.
“Well, good thing you showed up when you did. I was planning on challenging Seraphina if I didn’t find my fated mate at the gathering since I didn’t find him in my pack when I turned eighteen,” Tala says.
I believe she’s the youngest of the three. I look her over as I take in her words. She’s at least a foot taller than me. While I may have more ass than she does, she’s a lot bustier than I am.
“Child, please,” Nika snorts. “You can’t tell that man has a type? While I wouldn’t have minded watching you kick Seraphina’s ass, you wouldn’t have stood a chance with the VP.”
“You got that right. Now she … she’s his type to a T,” Sienna says as she jabs a finger toward me.
My face has broken into a full blush. Tala is pretty. I wonder if Bradan would have turned her away.
“Look, her cheeks are turning purple. I was only joking. Let’s change the topic,” Tala says, saving me.
“What’s the gathering?” I ask.
“Our alphas haven’t found their mates. Every two years, the packs hold a ball and invite the unmated wolves from packs around the world. My sister found her mate about five years ago at one. I’m holding out hope for next year,” she says.
“No one thinks it’s strange that no one from our packs has found a mate since that year?” Nika muses.
Tala shrugs. “Like I said, I’m holding out hope. The moon goddess hasn’t forsaken me.”
“I’m not saying she has,” Nika says quickly.
“I always thought you would be mates with Beta Eric,” Sienna says.
“Well, since he ran off to train at the Fire Moon pack and hasn’t been back for the last three years, how would I know if he was?” Tala says.
“You always say that as if it was by choice,” Sienna says.
I lose focus on their conversation as I think back to Tala’s words about going after Bradan for herself. I can’t help wondering if she would be more his type. I knit my brows as my thoughts return to Angel’s words about my small breasts and Bradan losing interest. I think of the fire fairy from yesterday.
She was petite like me, but she had more breasts than I do. Not a whole lot, but enough to be noticeable. I find myself a little sad as I wonder if I’m truly enough.
“Everything about you is enough,” Bradan says in my ear as he comes up behind me.
I close my eyes as his smoky scent surrounds me. I want to kick myself as I realize I didn’t close my thoughts back off from him. A shiver runs through me as he licks the shell of my ear.
“We need to talk,” he growls in my ear. “I don’t think I’m making myself clear.”
“I’m still helping out here,” I squawk.
“We can handle it from here. It was nice to meet you,” Sienna says and winks at me.
“Oh, okay. It was nice to meet you all as well. I hope I get to see you around sometime.”
“She will see you ladies soon. Thank you,” Bradan says.
I stand and Bradan pulls me into his arms. The next thing I know, we’re in our bedroom. My stomach rolls a little. I’m still going to need to get used to that.
Bradan reaches under my chin and lifts my head, tilting it back with his thumb. I look into his eyes and that sexy, heated gaze is there. I bite my lip as I stare back at him.
