come with us to the island? Your sister knew what would happen if she betrayed me, are you here to join her?”
Dexter was a few inches shorter then Castor’s six foot frame, and grinned. “Not at all, I just wanted to inform your true mate that there were no hard feelings. Kimberly choose poorly, and for that she got what she deserved, but you should know Caster father has decided to take sides with the Bloods. The old man might be from the old time, but he can still be vicious. From what I’ve been taught, he’s also a great strategy planner when it comes to war.”
Dominic’s taller frame slid next to Castor’s, but she caught Dominic’s wink at her, before he turned all his attention to Dexter. She shook her head and released the weapon, knowing there would be no way the men would allow anything to happen to her.
“Don’t they just take all the fun out of everything?” Suzanne nudged her and made her jump.
“Damn Suzanne, don’t do that. You scared the crap out of me.” She laughed. “God, am I out of practice, no one used to be able to sneak up on me.” Lissa grabbed her braid and slowly untwined it.
“Please, you were just thinking, and after finding out you have four mates, who wouldn’t be zoned out.” Suzanne grabbed her hand, and led her around the men through another door off to the side.
“Now spill it, how are you doing? I know it’s going to be rough, especially since it has been such a short time since you’ve been free.” Suzanne reached into the fridge and handed her a bottle of juice.
Both of them sat down at the large kitchen table when Jaycee, Cecil and Shelly joined them. Lissa had always been a quiet person, but lately these women had become close to her. Shelly with her flash temper and dry humor, Cecil cooking up a storm, making things that melted in your mouth, and who could weasel any confession out of a person with her food. Jaycee and Suzanne, though were the two she felt as if she could talk to about anything.
Lissa sat back in her chair and glanced around the table. “I’m not going to lie. I’m scared half to death. I hadn’t been with anyone since I was freed from that place over a year ago. But I realized something yesterday, if I want a life I have to fight for it and well. Let’s just say I won yesterday’s challenge and tonight I’ll win another.” She took a drink of juice.
Jaycee patted her hand and Suzanne nodded. “It’s as if all four men are already part of me, but yet I haven’t been with all four. There has been no bonding or anything like that. Well Castor and I now have a blood bond, but…” She ran her hand through her hair pulling it to the side. “It’s like they have been there all my life, that I’m part of them.”
Suzanne snorted, and took a drink of her juice, while Cecil put a plate of rolls and butter in front of all of them. “I think its nature’s way of changing things, balancing them. Jaycee, have you talked to Giai? I mean she is after all Mother Nature herself, maybe she knows why all of us have this reaction to our men.” Cecil sat down tearing apart a roll, and dipping it into the warm butter.
“No, but I gather we’ll find out more tonight, since Empusa will be here. Which reminds me, do we fix a formal dinner for them?” Jaycee asked Suzanne and Temmra.
Cecil stared at Suzanne who busted out laughing. “Jaycee you couldn’t cook if your life depended on it. But, no they won’t be able to stay long, they don’t want to draw the attention of others, and their powers will do that. Cecil is right; things are changing here on Earth. Temmra even noticed it with the animals around her. They’re more guarded, hiding, as if preparing, and it has nothing to do with the fact winter is right around the corner. Hell, we have Christmas in ninety days, plus your due date is here in the next two months. I think all of us need to watch for any signs. As for your reaction to your men Lissa, let them in. I know it’s
