Answers to Questions You Shouldn’t Have Asked

“John” John Max

The supernatural was real. I belonged to the supernatural world. Evil bastards kidnapped me and planned to force me to mate with a buyer who decided I’d be theirs. After living through all these things, a guy expects nothing else can surprise him. But Lysander Temple proved me wrong.

It had been a few days since Lysander and I went to get macaroni, since he… Lysander wasn’t with me now. Actually, a different agent accompanied me on a walk. Walking without the cane was no longer a challenge, but the best method for keeping my legs strong and capable still involved, you know, using them. Chase and I did a lap around the Better Tomorrow parking lot in the late afternoon.

Chase chatted easily while I enjoyed the colors of sunset brewing in the sky and how they changed the look of grass and flowers and everywhere the light hit. If he knew what happened with Lysander and I, he didn’t show it.

The purr of an engine drew my attention. An absolute beauty of the car pulled into a parking spot near the sidewalk.

"Wow,” I breathed. “That’s so…" Sleek lines and a black, shiny exterior that looked positively lick-able, the small vehicle demanded attention.

"Sexy?" Chase filled in.

"Yeah." Apparently cars could be sexy.

"Hey, you’ve got great taste in sports cars. This baby is a Ferrari 812 with a V12 engine that revs up to 9,000 rpm.”

"Uh… I believe you." None of those words meant anything to me.

"You were talking about the car, right, not the guy driving it? He’s sexy as hell too."

"Uh…" A lithe blond man emerged from the vehicle, removing his sunglasses as the wind tousled his hair.

"That’s the most awesome person in the world,” Chase explained with clear affection. “You good with saying hello?"

Oh. This was Chase’s mate. The ‘mates’ concept was complicated. Both Chase and Aaron had mates and were not absolute monsters. For both those points to be true, it meant both they and their chosen partners had agreed to be together and make the ultimate commitment. But my introduction to mates was not so pleasant. In the scenario set up by the Brokers, one person had all the power and the other was chained to them. That still came to mind first when thinking of mates.

But meeting Chase’s mate now? Yeah, that much I could manage. Chase made the introductions when the other man joined us.

"Max, this is my partner, Lucas Milton."

"Nice to meet you."

Lucas rested against Chase’s side as he extended a hand, but Chase immediately jumped away and put distance between them. I almost told him that was completely unnecessary before I saw he’d only separated himself in order to dramatically gesture to the sports car. "And this is Clive.”

"The car doesn’t have a name," Lucas disagreed immediately. “This is a company car that you must stop getting attached to because it’s not even ours.”

Lucas settled into Chase’s side again and Chase wrapped an arm around him. He nodded to his partner and grinned at me.
