CHAPTER FIFTEEN

PEPPER STOOD IN what would be “her” bathroom in the big house, staring at herself in the mirror. She wore the periwinkle-blue baby-doll underwear she had picked out when shopping with Sam. The lingerie fit everywhere except the bust. Pepper wasn’t overly concerned, considering this was her mating night and a potential wardrobe malfunction wouldn’t be seen as a hindrance, but she had to admit, she was still nervous.

Sam had convinced Connall that she’d make sure Pepper was safe during the conversion and Pepper had reminded him that it was going to happen sooner or later. Wouldn’t it be better to start their lives together sooner?

Pepper adjusted the top. Mating night. What a strange phrase.

She heard Connall’s chuckle.

Well, it is.

Think of it as your wedding night instead.

Yeah, that doesn’t really help.

All on your time, love. We can wait.

I don’t want to wait. I’m simply making an observation.

Fair enough.

She smiled. Besides. I’m looking forward to blowing—

Promises, promises!

Dr. Gunnach, let me finish.

He chuckled again. I will gladly let you finish... in here.

You’re beyond redeemable, my love. But I promise I’ll still blow your mind. She grinned as she ran her light pink lip gloss over her lower lip and pressed her lips together. I hope you like cotton candy.

What’s cotton candy?

You know the stuff you get at a fair? Sugar spun into web-like confectionary?

Ahh, we call it candy floss. I do like it. Why?

You’ll find out.

Tonight?

Pepper giggled. Keep your pants on.

The goal is to take them off, love.

She studied herself in the mirror again. Satisfied with what she saw, she took a deep breath. Ready?

The bathroom door opened and Connall stepped inside, letting out a quiet whistle. “You are exquisite.”

Pepper settled her hands on her hips and frowned. “You were supposed to close your eyes so I could do a grand reveal.”

“You have revealed that you’re grand.” He grinned and Pepper’s breath caught as she studied him. He wore black flannel pj bottoms that hung from his hips and a black wife-beater that seriously hid nothing, and made her wonder why such a sexy article of clothing was given such a nasty name. She could still see the outline of his chiseled-in-granite chest and knew that when she touched him, his six-pack would feel more like twelve.

She licked her lips and met his eyes. “You are gorgeous.”

He shook his head as he closed the distance between them. “Not even close to you, sweetheart. That color on you does things to me.”

Connall slid his hands over her hips and Pepper shivered.

“Cold?”

“No.” She bit her lip. “Horny.”

He laughed and cupped her face. “I love you.”

“I love you too.” She grinned and slipped her hands under his shirt, confirming the tightness of his stomach. “Can we stop talking now?”

He leaned down to kiss her and without breaking the kiss, lifted her so that she could wrap her legs around his waist.

“What is on your lips?” he asked. “It’s delicious.”

Pepper giggled and ran her hands through his hair. “Cotton-candy-flavored lip gloss.”

He kissed her again. “I think wearing that needs to be part of your daily routine.
