Chapter 15

What was Everton doing wandering around the tree farm at night if he didn’t normally do so?

“So what happened at the tree farm, exactly?” Nathan asked, sounding alarmed.

Bjornolf told him about the man who had caught Anna trespassing and how she’d used Nathan and his faux watch as an alibi.

“Where were you when Jessica’s father was hassling Anna?” Nathan sounded like he was about to take Bjornolf on for not protecting her.

Bjornolf fought smiling. The kid was cute. “I was there.” Not that Bjornolf had to explain himself to Nathan, but he wanted to. “He asked for an ID and Anna said she wasn’t changing her name to mine.”

Nathan’s eyes widened. “Will she now?”

Bjornolf snorted. “We don’t actually get married on paper.”

“Oh. Yeah.” Nathan hung up another section of lights, then climbed down the ladder to move it again. He climbed back up and then turned to Bjornolf. “When was the first time you had sex with a human girl?”

Hell. Bjornolf stopped unraveling strands of lights and looked up at Nathan. “This isn’t about that Jessica Everton girl, is it?”

Nathan frowned, turned, and continued to hang lights off the house.

Not good. “How old is she?” Bjornolf asked. He hadn’t expected to have these kinds of talks with the kid.

“She’s seventeen. Like me. But we can do it with human girls because as wolves we can’t get them pregnant.”

Bjornolf frowned at him. “Most of the time, no.”

Nathan’s jaw dropped.

“It happens occasionally. Haven’t you ever heard Tessa’s story?”

“She was mated to Hunter before she got pregnant.”

“Her mother was the byproduct of her human grandmother and her werewolf grandfather’s union.”

Nathan stared at Bjornolf for a moment. “Oh.” Then he began hanging the lights again.

“It’s rare, but still risky.”

Nathan turned. “But Tessa wasn’t one of us. Hunter had to bite her.”

“Yes, but that’s not the point, is it? Her mother’s mother became pregnant. That’s the point. Further, we usually have multiple births so all of a sudden you wouldn’t have one child but possibly several.”

Nathan was quiet for a long time. Then he said meekly, as if he was afraid that Bjornolf would tell him that his thoughts on that subject were also urban legend, “We can’t get STDs from humans.”

“You’re right. Still, Jessica’s underage and jailbait.”

Nathan sighed. “You’re not going to tell me about the first time you had sex with a human?”

“You know how long we live, Nathan.” Bjornolf was sure Nathan’s father hadn’t talked to him about his own sex life before he mated Nathan’s mother. He wasn’t sure what the protocol was here. Bjornolf’s father certainly never talked to him about the birds and the bees.

“Yeah, I know once you reach puberty, you age only one in thirty years.”

“So it’s been a very long time.”

Nathan’s eyes widened. “You don’t remember?”

Bjornolf frowned at him. “Of course I remember.”

“Well?”

“She was sixteen.”

“Sixteen? That’s worse than me.”

“You’ve already done it with Jessica?” Bjornolf shouldn’t have sounded so astounded, but he had guessed the kid was trying to sound him out, to see if Bjornolf thought it was acceptable.
