Chapter 9

There were miles of forest as far as the eye could see and a large expanse of crystal blue water with the mountains as a backdrop. Even with all of the turbulent emotions coursing through her, Tanya couldn’t help but to admire the view as they slowly descended onto the patch of open land situated a few hundred feet to the right of the log cabin.

Although the cabin was only surrounded by sparse ground cover all the way from the front of the building down to the lake, the ground was angled at a sharp decline with intermittent rocks and boulders, making the terrain not very helicopter friendly.

The pilot put the machine down gently, though Tanya still felt her stomach lurch as the chopper touched ground.

“All good?” Brant must have noticed how she grimaced. She nodded and at least tried to give him a small smile.

He glanced to the front of the chopper. “You’ll be on standby twenty-four seven?”

The pilot nodded, turning back. He looked to be in his forties. “Myself and my brother Travis. You have our numbers?” His eyes darted from the males sitting up front back to Brant.

“Yeah. Thanks.” Her mate’s gaze moved back to her where he searched her face, his whole demeanor softened. First, he removed her headphones and then he took off his own. “Let’s get you into bed.” A soft rumble that would’ve meant something entirely different yesterday.

Brant lifted her easily, he jumped gracefully from the chopper, bending his knees to absorb the impact. His strong arms banded around her. And even though the stench of fuel permeated the air, she could still smell his woodsy, manly scent.

They began their climb. Two guards up front, and two at the rear. Brant carried her while the other males carried their luggage. They made quick work of the rough, rocky terrain. Leaping over fallen trees and large boulders. The rocks crunched beneath their boots.

Although she felt bad that Brant was carrying her, she didn’t try and talk him out of it. He had yet to break a sweat and his breathing was still perfectly normal. It never ceased to amaze her. Although she had grown stronger, she was nowhere near as strong as the vampires. Maybe once she had the baby. Then again, she didn’t have their natural physiques.

Just thinking along those lines reminded her of how tall and slim the vampire females were. Which in turn made her think of Alexandra.

Not going there.

Her arms tightened around Brant and she buried her head into his neck. At least her belly wasn’t feeling as tight any more. Her back also felt okay. Things could be so much worse, she reminded herself.

Even in midstride, Brant planted a kiss on top of her head. His thumb gently stroked her back. “Nearly there.”

They moved quicker as the ground leveled out more, bringing the cabin into view. She inhaled sharply. Becky and Ross were standing on the porch. Becky’s eyes widened as she caught sight of the approaching party. Her friend lifted her hand in greeting and a smile grew on her face.
